Crabbs Barn Wedding Photographer – Sam & Craig

Crabbs Barn Wedding Photographer

A blue sky and fluffy white clouds greeted us on arrival at Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon, for the Wedding of Sam and Craig. Crabbs Barn looked a picture and Paul and the rest of the staff warmly welcomed us as always. Sam arrived at the Bridal Suite with her hair and make up done, leaving just the final touches to complete. Everyone was excited, rightly so! A little while later Craig arrived with his Best Man and Ushers and before they got underway with their duties they had a few pictures taken. Once Sam was ready we took a few pictures then assisted by her Bridesmaids and Flowergirl, they walked around to the Barn. After seeing the Registrars, it was time for the Civil Ceremony.

With the sun streaming in through the windows, Sam and Craig exchanged their Wedding vows. After the Ceremony. the Drinks Reception was held in Pavilion, where we took some informal pictures. Clouds were gathering so we decided to get on with some requested Group pictures during that time as well. Following these, keeping an eye on the weather and knowing Sam and Craig wanted their pictures around the splendid grounds of Crabbs Barn, we carried on with their ‘together’pictures.

In next to no time we completed these allowing a little more social time for Sam and Craig to enjoy. After the ‘everybody’ picture it was time for the Wedding Breakfast. Craig delivered his Speech prior to the meal being served as the rain arrived. Good timing! The sun came out again during the Wedding Breakfast and with everything running smoothly there was sufficient time before the rest of the Speeches for a couple of sunset pictures. Sam’s Mum’s Speech was followed by a Speech by the Best Man.

Afterwards Sam and Craig’s Guests enjoyed coffee in the Pavilion, followed by the arrival of their Evening Guests. As a surprise, Sam and Craig had arranged a firework display for their Guests’ enjoyment.

After cutting the wedding cake and coverage of Sam and Craig’s First Dance we took a few images capturing their evening Guests just before our our day ended. A lovely couple and a lovely day to be a Crabbs Barn Wedding Photographer !

After Charlotte and Mark spent a little time wth their Guests, we got on with the family group photos. For a few together pictures of Charlotte and Mark we went back into the Barn.

Wedding Photography Crabbs Barn, Kelvedon for Victoria & Antony

Wedding Photography Crabbs Barn – Crabbs Barn was the chosen Venue for Victoria and Antony’s Wedding. With the amount of rain we had in the morning we were so pleased it had all disappeared before we arrived at Crabbs Barn later on in the day. At the Bridal Suite preparations were going well. The Bridesmaids, Flowergirl and Pageboys stepped outside the room for a moment so we could photograph Vickies dress which they were not allowed to see until it was on! Afterwards they finished getting ready and when Vicky was ready we captured some lovely moments when they saw her dressed.

Whilst this was going on Antony, his Best Man and Ushers were having their pictures taken by David before they resumed their duties. Stepping outside of the Bridal Suite we took a few pictures of Vicky, her Parents and Bridesmaids. It was soon time for Vicky to make the short walk into the Barn for the Civil Ceremony. Following the Ceremony Vicky and Antony led their Guests outside for the Drinks Reception. During the afternoon, there was time for Vicky and Antony to enjoy talking to their Guests as well as having the requested photographs taken. After a few pictures of the two of them around the grounds of Crabbs Barn it was time for the Wedding Breakfast. Following the Speeches the Guests went to The Garden Room for coffee whilst the Barn was prepared for the evening celebrations. When most of Vicky and Antony’s evening Guests had arrived the happy couple then took to the dance floor for their First Dance. Before we left a little while later we took a couple of nightime pictures of Vicky and Antony which completed a wonderful day.
