Fennes Wedding

It was a lovely to do the Fennes Wedding Photography for Becca & Kieran in May this year.

Preparations were well underway when we arrived at Fennes during the morning of the Wedding. The weather was not playing ball , it was raining but we were hopeful and according to the forecast it would be better later on. Once Kieran and his Groomsmen were ready they had a few pictures taken, as did Becca and the girls later.

Soon it was time for the Ceremony in the Pavilion. Becca and her Dad followed the Bridesmaids into the Pavilion for the Wedding to start. While the Ceremony was taking place the rain stopped. Yes, we could now go outside for the pictures. The afternoon outside allowed Becca, Kieran and their Guests enjoy being in the grounds of Fennes for the Drinks Reception. Becca and Kieran wanted a few family group pictures taken and we took Becca and Kieran for a few pictures of them during the afternoon.

Confetti pictures in the corridor in the house worked well before they sat down for the Wedding Breakfast.

Speeches were before the meal. Cake cutting and First Dance were later in the evening leaving them time to enjoy the grounds of Fennes.

Sparklers pictures finished our coverage of Becca and Kieran’s lovely Wedding day.

We said our goodbyes for the day but we were going to see them two days later!

Fennes Wedding Photographers for Lisa & Nathan

We were the Fennes Wedding Photographers for Lisa and Nathan’s Wedding.

Bridal Preparations

Arriving at Fennes we made our way upstairs to see Lisa. Lots of preparations were taking place so it was full on. We took pictures of Lisa’s Wedding Dress and Accessories in the John Dorwood Suite, as there was more room to move around and it was cooler to work in. It was easy to go between the rooms as and when it was necessary.

The Men

Nathan was getting ready at Fennes so David went off to find him and the Groomsmen. Once they were ready they had some pictures taken outside in the grounds.

Once the finishing touches were applied for the make-up and hair the Bridesmaids got changed into their Bridesmaid Dresses. Lisa went to put on her Wedding Dress, assisted by her Mother. Lisa wanted to surprise her Bridesmaids with the ‘big reveal’. We took a few Bridal Portraits of Lisa before we moved back to the Bridal Changing Room. Some nice ‘moment’ pictures when this happened. After taking a few pictures of them it was time to go! Lisa’s Father was waiting at the bottom of the stairs and as usual this made a lovely picture.

Outdoor Ceremony

Once it was time, the Bridesmaids led the way across the grass to the Gazebo. It was a beautiful day, the Gazebo looked lovely, decorated with many flowers and as they all walked out it was a wonderful picture. After the Ceremony, everyone enjoyed the Drinks Reception.

Family Pictures

Lisa and Nathan wanted some family pictures which we did after they had time to socialise with their Guests. Fennes bridge, of course, was used for some of their pictures later on, finishing with a few minutes around the grounds. A greeting line was held before Lisa and Nathan entered the Pavilion for the Wedding Breakfast. The Speeches followed and then Lisa and Nathan cut their Wedding Cake.

Evening Fun

It was such a lovely evening, the outside was popular with many Guests. Lisa and Nathan wanted a few more ‘fun’ pictures and it was the right time to do these. Sunset beckoned a little later. Lisa and Nathan had time to mingle with their Guests after this before their First Dance. It was not long after this we said our ‘goodbyes’. The end to another day being Fennes Wedding Photographers.

Christmas Wedding Photography Fennes for Beth & Lee

Christmas Wedding Photography Fennes for Beth & Lee

A Christmas Wedding at Fennes! Beth and Lee chose the popular Wedding Venue The Fennes Estate for their Wedding. Arriving at Fennes, meeting with the girls was our first job. David then went off to find the guys who were in the cottages making their final preparations. Beth and the girls were having a great time upstairs in the changing rooms, having their hair and make-up done. Once Lee and the men were ready, looking splendid in their RAF uniforms, they made their way over to the house. After taking a few portraits of Lee and a few pictures of them all Lee and his Groomsmen went into the house as the Guests were starting to arrive. By this time the girls were in the final stages of getting ready and once Beth’s Mother was ready, she assisted Beth to get dressed. Beth looked lovely!

Taking a few pictures of Beth, her Bridesmaids and Flowergirls, Beth then went down the stairs to where her Father was. The Bridesmaids led the way into the Pavilion for the Civil Ceremony. After the Ceremony everybody went to the front of Fennes for the Drinks Reception. Beth and Lee socialised with their Guests for a little while before it was time to get on with the pictures. It was not raining so for the requested family pictures we went outside for a short while before doing a few more inside. As these were taking place everyone enjoyed the mulled wine and mincepies. Later on, after Beth had changed her footwear, we took Beth and Lee for a few minutes over to the bridge for their pictures. Guests threw confetti over Beth and Lee when we returned before it was time for the Receiving Line. The Wedding Breakfast was held in the Pavilion with the Speeches following. The best Man’s speech was extremely well planned! There was time afterwards for a few relaxed pictures of Beth and Lee before the cake cutting. Surprising their Guests with the light up letters on the dance floor Beth and Lee took to the floor for their First Dance. After capturing a flavour of the evening celebrations we said our goodbyes. Thanks to Sharon and all the staff at Fennes.

Wedding Photography for Louise & Jamie – Fennes, Bocking

The Fennes Estate with the addition of a snow covering, made an even more amazing setting for Louise and Jamie’s Wedding! Seeing the line up of wellies, on arrival, we knew it was going to be a great day! Lots of excitable noise could be heard upstairs in Fennes with the girls getting ready. Harry, Louise and Jamie’s son, was with them and had plenty of attention paid to him. After capturing the getting ready pictures and once the girls were ready we took a few photographs before it was time for the Civil Ceremony. Louise looked radiant walking into the Ceremony with her Father, followed by the Bridesmaids. After the Ceremony, Louise, Jamie, family and friends enjoyed the Drinks Reception whilst we captured some informal images. A little while later after a few family photographs in the warm in the Gold Room and following a change of footware for many of us, we ventured outside with the Bridal Party for some fun relaxed pictures walking through the snow. The Bridesmaids and Groomsmen returned inside leaving Louise, Jamie, Harry and us to go to the Bridge.
With beautiful light, a wonderful setting, a happy couple, some lovely pictures! Confetti pictures were in the Gold Room before the Receiving Line. After greeting their Guests, it was time for the Speeches before the Wedding Breakfast. Harry’s Birthday was the following day so after the Wedding Breakfast there was a surprise Birthday cake for him. Before the arrival of their Evening Guests, Louise and Jamie wanted to have a few pictures taken around the inside of Fennes. Not long after Louise and Jamie cut their Wedding Cake and took to the dance floor for their First Dance. Our night finished with a couple of closing pictures of Louise and Jamie in front of Fennes. Great to work with David of Rideout Productions again and thanks to the staff at Fennes for looking after us so well.
