  • Fennes Covid-19 Wedding for Hillary & James

    This was our first Fennes Covid-19 Wedding. It was a different Wedding but nonetheless an amazing one! Hillary and James were due to get married in August this year in front of all their family and friends. Due to Covid-19 this could not happen. However they decided to get married on their chosen date in August anyway.

    No Guests!

    The big celebration will be next year when they can be with their family and friends. On this day they had no guests!

    Fennes Covid-19 Wedding

    Hillary and James’ Wedding Day was wonderful! The weather was fabulous allowing them to have an outside Wedding Ceremony.

    When David and I arrived at Fennes, Hillary and James were applying the finishing touches to the decoration of the new Gazebo. It looked beautiful! James then made sure ‘Zoom’ would work.

    Once Hillary and James were happy with all the arrangements we took a few pictures of both of them before the start of the Ceremony.

    The doors in the Gold Room opened, the music played and Hillary made her way down the steps and across the grass towards the Gazebo. The Ceremony was lovely. Hillary and James said their vows and exchanged Wedding rings.

    Special Witnesses!

    Hillary and James had asked David and I before their Wedding Day if we would be their Witnesses and we were very happy to be asked to carry out this for them. Wonderful!

    Time for some pictures

    Once the formalities were completed, Hillary and James enjoyed a celebratory drink! After a while we took Hillary and James for a stroll around the grounds.

    We made sure they had a variety of pictures taken inside and out but wanted to keep a few ideas for pictures next year.

    Hillary and James, you are a very lovely couple and the Wedding was wonderful! Thank you Hillary and James for asking us to photograph your Wedding and for being your Witnesses, we loved it! We are so looking forward to seeing you again next year!

    A huge ‘thank you’ to Kirsty and Sue of Fennes, for all your help in making Hillary and James’ Fennes Covid-19 Wedding such a success. No problems or worries, just joy! We love working with you!

    Wedding Photographs Fennes – Dani & John

    We were pleased to be asked to photograph Danielle and John’s Wedding at the wonderful Fennes. After initially booking us to photograph their Wedding next year, they decided to take advantage of an opportunity of booking the Fennes Estate for their Wedding this year. Danielle was getting ready at Fennes, helped by her Bridesmaids and Mum, so we captured the moments as they happened. When John arrived, we took a few pictures of him with his Groomsmen outside. Once these were taken John greeted the Guests whilst some pictures of Danielle were taken as she was now ready.  After everybody was seated in the Pavilion, Danielle came down the stairs to meet with the Registrars. She then made her way down to the Pavilion for the Civil Ceremony.Wedding Photographer Essex Fennes The forecasted rain arrived during the Ceremony so the Guests mingled in the rooms at the front of Fennes whilst we took some pictures in the Gold Room.Fennes Wedding Photographer With the requested pictures taken, on cue the rain stopped and we all went outside. After the ‘everybody’ picture we took Danielle and John over to Bridge for a few pictures of them together. As the Guests were now outside the Red Room was free and we took a few more pictures in there.Fennes Recommended Wedding Photographer After managing to squeeze in some fun bridal party and confetti shots, it was time for the Wedding Breakfast. The Speeches followed and then it was soon time for the evening reception. With some colour in the sky, Danielle and John ended up with some evening pictures before their First Dance. Happy with our coverage we took our leave.Wedding Photographer Fennes It was a lovely day and it was nice to see Victoria and Antony again, whose Wedding we photographed in September 2014 at Crabbs Barn. Congratulations Danielle and John!
