Renewal of Vows Photography Prested Hall for Collette & Mark

Renewal of Vows Photography at Prested Hall.

Collette and Mark renewed their Wedding Vows at Prested Hall earlier this year. Collette and Mark’s daughter-in-law April, got in touch with us about capturing the Renewal of Vows Ceremony for Collette and Mark. When we arrived at Prested Hall early afternoon on the day of the Ceremony we went upstairs to see Collette. Collette was getting ready with her daughters and Granddaughters who were the Flowergirls . Preparations were going well. David went off to find Mark and his Groomsmen and take some pictures of them.

After this Guests were arriving so they socialised with them for a short while. Collette was soon ready and we got on with taking a few pictures of her and with her grandchildren when they were ready. The Guests made their way into the Oak Room for the Ceremony but Mark came upstairs. Collette and Mark wanted to come down the stairs and go into the Ceremony Room together. A nice Ceremony with Collette and Mark exchanging rings to mark the occasion.

After the Ceremony we went outside to take a few requested family pictures and any other pictures that were required. Everyone then enjoyed a Drinks Reception.

During the afternoon we took some informal pictures of everyone before taking Collette and Mark over to the Bridge for their pictures.

The Orangery looked lovely, as did the long table for everyone to sit at for their meal after we returned. A nice arrangement to a wonderful event. Leaving them to enjoy their meal and the rest of the celebrations we said our goodbyes.

Wedding Photographer Prested Hall for Victoria & Greg

Wedding Photographer Prested Hall for Victoria & Greg

We were delighted to be theWedding Photographer Prested Hall for Victoria & Greg. It was a dry bright day when we arrived at Prested Hall. Preparations were taking place upstairs in Prested Hall so that’s where we started. Everything was running well and all the girls were very relaxed and enjoying what was going on. Without hurrying, there was time to take the details and accessories pictures in between capturing a variety of getting ready pictures.

Greg was in the Apartment getting ready and we captured a few pictures of his preparations as well. Once Greg and the guys were ready they made their way over to Prested Hall where they had a few pictures taken. Greg and his Groomsmen then greeted the Guests. Once the girls were ready and Tori’s Father had come into the room to see his daughter we got on with their pictures. It was nice to have a little extra time to take Tori’s Bridal portraits, she looked amazing! Finishing the pictures it was time for the Ceremony. The Guests were seated in the Garden Room ready for the Ceremony, whilst Greg stood waiting for Tori to enter the room.

After the Ceremony

After the Ceremony Tori and Greg together with their Guests enjoyed the Drinks Reception. A short time later we got on with the requested family pictures. The sun was out whilst we took the pictures but as we were coming to the finish with the group pictures, dark clouds appeared! The Guests made their way into Prested Hall as it started to rain, but Tori, Greg and ourselves decided to head over to the Gazebo. Under cover we took a few of Tori and Greg’s together pictures, David got a touch wet! Tori and Greg then returned to their Guests until the Wedding Breakfast. The Marquee was where the Wedding Breakfast was held and after the meal we captured the moments of the Speeches. Once the Speeches were completed there was a break before the start of the evening celebrations.

The Evening

During this time, Tori, Greg and ourselves went off for a short while to take some more pictures of them and the sunset. The rain had stopped, it was a pleasant evening and we made the most of the time.

On our return, the evening Guests had arrived and after a short while Tori and Greg cut their Wedding Cake. Their First Dance was next and afterwards we took a few informal pictures of the evening celebrations. Our last pictures of the night were the Sparklers’ shots. Tori and Greg’s Wedding Day was a memorable day, they are a wonderful couple! Congratulations!

Prested Hall Wedding Photography for Hayley & Jason

Prested Hall Wedding Photography for Hayley & Jason

It was nice to be back for more Prested Hall Wedding Photography. This time for the Wedding of Hayley and Jason. Hayley, her Parents and Bridesmaids were getting ready in the Prested Apartments, situated in the Spa complex. We started our coverage from there as the girls were having their hair and make-up finished.

Hayley’s Dress and accessories were over in the main house so we made sure pictures of these were taken. Preparations were going well and it wasn’t long before the girls were ready to transfer to Prested Hall itself. Hayley’s timings were good and allowed us time to get the required photographs with her Bridesmaids and parents.

Carriage Ride to Church

The Horse and Carriage was ready for Hayley as we finished the pictures to take her with her Father to All Saints Church, Feering. David and I left to get to the Church before them and take a few pictures of Jason and his Groomsmen, who were very relaxed and enjoying the moments. We managed to complete taking Jason’s pictures before too many of the Guests arrived, then left Jason, his Best Man and Ushers to continue greeting them.

It was a beautiful day, ideal for arriving at Church in a Horse and Carriage. After taking a couple of pictures, Hayley and her Father walked towards to the Church. The Bridesmaids were first to enter the Church, then Hayley and her Father followed. Wow! The atmosphere, emotions, reactions were fantastic and these continued all the way through the service. Some wonderful moments captured! After the Church service, everybody came outside and after a few minutes we got on with the requested family pictures. It was nice for Jason to have a large contingent of his family over from Australia, where he originates from. With the group pictures completed the Guests threw confetti over Hayley and Jason.

Hayley and Jason then enjoyed the ride to Prested Hall for the Reception. The Drinks Reception awaited them and their Guests on their arrival and there was time for everyone to socialise. During the rest of the afternoon we took some fun Bridal Party pictures and a few of Hayley and Jason by themselves.

The Wedding Breakfast

The Marquee looked wonderful for the Wedding Breakfast and when the time was right the Guests everyone took their seats. The Speeches followed the meal before all the guests went outside to enjoy the evening sunshine.

The Evening

Hayley and Jason were pleased we asked them to create a few more pictures in the evening light. Moving around Prested Hall we ended up with a variety of nice relaxed and fun evening pictures. The Evening Guests were arriving when we returned so we left Hayley and Jason greeting them.

Later after cutting their Wedding Cake, they took to the dance floor for their First Dance. During the evening we captured a few informal pictures whilst waiting for the sunset. We whisked Hayley and Jason away for a little while by car for the sunset. Not to be missed! It was spectacular! This ended our coverage of Hayley and Jason’s wonderful Wedding. A lovely couple! A great Wedding! Thank you to Hayley and Jason for such a memorable Wedding. A mention to Rachel of Prested Hall, it was nice working with you as always.

Prested Hall Wedding Photography for Nicola and Robert

Prested Hall Wedding Photography for Nicola and Robert

Prested Hall was the chosen Wedding Venue for Nicola and Rob’s Wedding. Arriving at Prested Hall we went upstairs to see Nicola. It was nice and relaxed up there with Nicola having the finishing touches applied to her hair and make-up. Robert was downstairs and once he was ready we took a few pictures of him, and a a couple of pictures with his Parents, Brother and Nephews. Robert then went off to join his Guests. Once Nicola was ready, her Father came into the room and saw her before we got on with a few pictures. It was soon time for the Wedding Ceremony. This was going to take place in the Garden Room once the Guests were seated. The children led the way. Keiran and Issac were the Ringbearers and theywere followed into the room by Ellie the Flowergirl. After that Nicola taking her Father’s arm made her entrance. Some lovely moments. After the Ceremony everybody socialised in the Lounge area for a little while, where we were able to capture some informal pictures. A little while later as it was dry and fine day, everyone went outside for a group picture followed by a few requested family pictures. Leaving the Guests for a few minutes we took Robert and Nicola for a few pictures around the grounds of Prested Hall. Not keeping them too long, we managed to take some nice pictures on and over the bridge. This was late Autumn and the light was going fast. Later, finishing off with a picture as the sun was going down was an added bonus. Returning we took a few more requested pictures before we took Nicola and Robert into the Orangery to take a picture of them with their Wedding Cake. It was then time for the Wedding Breakfast. Once everyone had taken their seats we took table shots. Our coverage of Nicola and Robert’s Wedding finished once the meal was served. Congratulations Nicola and Robert, it was a lovely Wedding and we wish you all the best.
