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.

Fennes Wedding Photography for Dana & Trevor

The next job in the summer last year was Fennes Wedding Photography for Dana & Trevor. A glorious sunny day made Fennes looked beautiful.

The Girls

We arrived at Fennes and went to the Bridal Suite. It was pretty lively as you can imagine with lots of preparations going on. David and I kept ourselves busy with photographing Dana’s Wedding Dress and Accessories, always with an eye open as to the happenings.

The Men

During this time Trevor and his Groomsmen and the Pageboys arrived. Once they had gone to their rooms and settled in David went over to take some pictures of their preparations. It wasn’t long before they were dressed and ready to do some pictures. These didn’t take very long so they were able to meet the Wedding Guests. Relaxed moments captured as Guests sat around at the tables or wandered around the grounds. Upstairs in the House, all preparations were coming together.

The girls were dressed and Dana was almost dressed being helped by Chanelle, her daughter. Barry, Dana’s Brother, who was giving her away, couldn’t resist coming upstairs and seeing Dana. Special moments. The two Pageboys had a sneak preview as well! We got with taking a few pictures of Dana with her Bridesmaids and a few Bridal Portraits before going downstairs.

The Wedding Ceremony

It was to be an outdoor Ceremony so everyone set up in the Gold Room. The Pageboys were the Ring Bearers as well and when the doors opened they were the leaders to the Gazebo for the Ceremony to take place.

When the Ceremony was finished Dana and Trevor walked down the aisle and when they reached the end they had a little dance! Some lovely reactions and pictures! After taking the ‘everybody’ shot we moved to under the trees where it was shaded forthe requested family pictures. Once these were finished everyone socialised during the Drinks Reception with the Harpist entertaining them. We had fun later with the relaxed Bridal party pictures. We took Dana and Trevor for a short walk around Fennes during the afternoon before the confetti pictures.

Dana and Trevor greeted their Guests before the Wedding Breakfast began.

After the meal and Speeches everyone made the most of the evening sunshine by being in the grounds.

The Evening Celebrations

This was the time when Dana and Trevor had a few extra pictures taken around Fennes. Dana then changed her dress just before the start of the evening celebrations. After cutting their Wedding Cake, it was First Dance time. Great dance moves from this Bride and Groom!

Finishing our Fennes Wedding Photography of Dana and Trevor’s big day was a sunset picture. A beautiful ending for a lovely couple!

Fennes Wedding Photography for Lauren & Matt

Fennes Wedding Photography for Lauren & Matt. It was a beautiful bright sunny day although it was windy.

After arriving at Fennes we went upstairs in the House to see Lauren. Preparations were going well with lots going on.

David went off to find Matt and the Groomsmen who were getting ready here as well. After a few final preparation pictures the boys were ready for some pictures. Outside they went, making the most of a dry day and the different places Fennes has to offer for pictures.

The Wedding Guests were arriving so Matt and the Groomsmen greeted them. Upstairs in the Bridal Room the Bridesmaids were ready to change into their Dresses. Lauren’s turn for final preparations!

The Flowergirls came and had a look at Lauren in her Wedding Dress as soon as she was ready . She looked lovely, her Father came into the room to see her before we got on with taking some Bridal pictures.

Matt had seen the Registrar so the Guests took their seats in the Pavilion for the Ceremony. Lauren saw the Registrar afterwards and then it was time for Lauren to make her way to the Ceremony. The Bridesmaids and Flowergirls went before Lauren into the Pavilion.

Fennes Wedding Ceremony

Following the Ceremony everyone went outside for a group picture before going back inside for the Drinks Reception. Once Lauren and Matt had spent some time socialising with their Guess we continued with the pictures. It was too windy to stay outside for long so we made the most of all the rooms inside at Fennes.

Windy Wedding

Keeping the guests inside was best and no problem at all. During the afternoon we took Lauren and Matt for a stroll around the gardens including going on the Bridge. The Daffodils made a lovely backdrop to Lauren and Matt’s together pictures.

Just before the Wedding Breakfast the Guests threw confetti over the couple in the Gold Room.

The Wedding Breakfast

During the meal everyone was entertained by a Singer. A nice sunset and we managed to take a couple of pictures of this in between the courses of the meal. The Speeches followed, these were very good.

The Evening Party

The Evening Guests arrived a little later and the evening celebrations began. There was a little time for us to take Lauren and Matt for a few evening pictures around Fennes.The bouquet toss and cake cutting followed soon after and then the First Dance.

Once we had a selection of pictures of the evening Guests we then said our goodbyes. It was wonderful Fennes Wedding Photography for Lauren & Matt. Two lovely people.

Ready for the Ceremony, Naomi took her Father’s arm and made her way into the Pavilion. After the Ceremony inside and outside of Fennes was used for the Drinks Reception and this made for some nice informal pictures.Paul and Naomi wanted some family pictures as well which we took during the afternoon.

Fennes Wedding Photography for Vivien & Jonathan

Fennes Wedding Photography for Vivien & Jonathan

It was a early start for Vivien and Jonathan’s Fennes Wedding Photography . Their Wedding was a Church Wedding then they went to to Fennes for the Reception.

First of all we travelled to the the Hotel in Cheshunt, where they had stayed the night before the Wedding. We moved from one room to another as there were lots of Bridesmaids and plenty of things going on! Jonathan was getting ready there also so we captured a few pictures of him. We managed to take pictures of Vivien’s Dress and accessories as well as capturing moments of preparations and getting ready. Vivien soon ready and after a couple of quick pictures we departed for the church. Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception in Enfield was the Church Vivien and Jonathan chose.

The Flowergirls and Pageboys were at the Church so we took their pictures. Once Jonathan and his Groomsmen were altogether we took a few pictures of them. Guests were arriving so then Jonathan had time to welcome them. Vivien arrived with her Mum in the car and after a couple of pictures it was time for the Church Service.

Vivien was given away by her Mother and when they were ready they entered the Church.It was a lovely service and we captured some great pictures. At the end of the service the Guests went outside and waited for Vivien and Jonathan to come out. As they did, everyone showered them in confetti. Vivien and Jonathan then spent a little time with their Guests before leaving for Fennes. The journey went well for everyone, no hold-ups on the motorway!

At Fennes we took Vivien and Jonathan to do some of their pictures around the grounds whilst Guests were still arriving. This worked well as they had a little time to socialise when we had finished.

We still had a few requested family pictures to take but we took these during the rest of the afternoon, finishing with the everybody shot. Vivien and Jonathan greeted their Guests before entering the Pavillion for the Wedding Breakfast. As they went in confetti cannons went off all around them making for a lovely display. The Speeches followed the Wedding Breakfast. Vivien and Jonathan cut their Wedding Cake and then took to the dance floor for their First Dance. Guests then joined them on the dance floor.

We used the grass area outside the Marquee for a few pictures during the evening before Vivien and Jonathan took to the dance floor again for their Money Dance. After a beautiful day the rain appeared. Not to be deterred by the rain, Vivien and Jonathan wanted a picture on Fennes’ bridge with the lights on. So, with their umbrellas onto the Bridge they went.

A wonderful picture to end a really lovely day of Fennes Wedding Photography.

Fennes Wedding Photography for Elena & James

Fennes Wedding Photography for Elena & James

Fennes Wedding Photography – What a wonderful day for a beautiful Wedding at the glorious Fennes! We were so looking forward to Elena & James’ Summer Wedding at Fennes.

On arrival we made our way upstairs to where Elena and the girls were getting ready. James and his Groomsmen were getting ready in the house as well so after saying ‘hello’ to the girls, David went off to find James.

Preparations were going well in both camps. Once James and his Groomsmen were ready their pictures were taken around the grounds of Fennes. After that they socialised with the Guests spending the time outside enjoying the lovely weather. Elena was soon ready but before we took some pictures Elena’s Father came into the room to see her. A few family and Bridal pictures were taken before Elena went down the stairs to see the Registrar.

Elena and James chose to have their Wedding Ceremony outdoors. Being so hot the Guests waited until the last moment for taking their seats on the lawn. They didn’t have long to wait,

The ceremony

Elena accompanied by her Father came out of the house and walked over to the Gazebo. After the Ceremony, as everyone took the Reception Drinks we took the ‘everybody’ picture and a couple of requested pictures. That was enough in the sun, time to move to the the shade of the trees for the rest of the pictures. It was a very relaxed afternoon and this allowed pictures not be rushed and gave time to Elena and James to talk to their Guests.

Elena and James wanted some fun shots so later on we did those and took them for a quick walk around the grounds for their pictures, finishing inside for a couple as well. The Wedding Breakfast was held in the Pavilion and once the Guests were seated Elena and James made their entrance. After the meal it was time for the Speeches.

There is usually time between the end of the meal and the start of the evening celebrations for extra pictures with the Bride and Groom and Elena and James wanted to do some more and some fun pictures! Aware that their Evening Guests were starting to arrive we made sure we returned so they could greet them.

The Dancing !!

When Elena and James cut their Wedding Cake a bit later on they then had their First Dance. The Guests then joined them on the dance floor. .A little while later a surprise for everyone! Moldovan dancers took to the dance floor and performed a variety of dances. Everyone clapped as they performed their dances. Wonderful! Now it was the Bride and Groom’s turn to join in followed by Guests if they wanted to. The dance floor was packed! Superb! Great pictures!

David and I after taking some informal pictures during the evening and stepping out with Elena and James for the sunset, made ourselves scarce for a bit. We knew what was coming next! When the time was right, the DJ asked the Guests to go outside. Awaiting them there were Sparklers! With lots of Sparklers lit, the Guests made two lines so Elena and James could walk down the middle. Great pictures.! What a way to finish our coverage of Elena and James’ Wedding! A lovely couple and a fantastic day was had!
