Wedding Photography Layer Marney Tower – It was a beautiful day for Melissa and Graham’s Wedding. Our day started at Melissa’s Parents’ home where Melissa and the girls were making their final preparations. When Melissa was ready we took a few pictures inside and outside, before leaving for the Church. At St Mary’s Church, Fairstead Guests were starting to arrive but we managed to fit in a few pictures of Graham and his Groomsmen. As the Guests made their way into the Church we captured some nice natural candid images. Melissa arrived at the Church in the Layer Marney Rolls Royce for the Church service. 
After the service the Wedding Guests followed Melissa and Graham outside for some traditional family pictures. Once finished, the Guests lined the pathway and threw confetti over Melissa and Graham as they walked to the car to go to the Reception at Layer Marney. On arrival at Layer Marney, Melissa and Graham were dropped in the Courtyard as they wanted to view The Long Galley and have a couple of pictures taken before their Guests arrived. Layer Marney’s Chaffeur, Graham, then took them for a short ride before arriving at the gate at the bottom of Tower. As the Guests arrived they enjoyed the Drinks Reception and congregated on the top step by the Tower. Friends of Melissa and Graham had arranged to bring Melissa’s horse to the Reception, which was a surprise to the Guests. 
With some nice images captured and Melissa’s horse back in the horse box, Melissa and Graham joined their Guests. In between socialising with their Guests, we took Melissa and Graham for a few pictures of them together before the start of the Wedding Breakfast and Speeches. In the interval before the start of the evening celebrations, everybody was entertained by the fabulous singer Joe Frydd. After such a very warm sunny day we thought a sunset was likely. Melissa and Graham are dancers which really made a special ‘Wow’ picture for them! This of course extended to their fantastic First Dance which was very well choreographed.
Afterwards they cut their Wedding cake and just before we left a nightime picture ended our coverage of a wonderful day.
We are looking forward to exhibiting our Wedding Photography at Layer Marney Tower and The Fennes this Sunday 19 October 2014. We look forward to seeing you no appointment required. Come and see how we can help make your day special, whether it is at one of these venues or somewhere else.
Pre-Wedding Photoshoot – Victoria and Paul are getting married soon at Layer Marney Tower, Layer de la Haye. For their pre-wedding pictures we met them one morning recently at Heybridge Basin. After a coffee and a chat about their details for their Wedding we took a few pictures of them.
Wedding Photography Layer Marney Tower– It was a lovely day for Rebecca and James’ Wedding. Our day started at the home of Rebecca’s Parents for a few preparation pictures followed by a few portrait pictures once everybody was ready. The garden proved to be a good spot for a few pictures before it was time to make our way to Layer Marney. Rebecca and James chose to have a Church Ceremony at Layer Marney Church and that is where we met James with his Groomsmen. In between the Groomsmen carrying out their duties and James greeting the Wedding Guests, some of whom travelled on the Layer Marney Routemaster bus, we managed to find a little time for a few pictures of them. Rebecca arrived not long afterwards in the Layer Marney Rolls Royce. Rebecca and her Bridesmaids then walked up the path and into the Church. Following the service there were a couple of pictures outside the church and the confetti shots. Rebecca and James went for a ride in the car, whilst their Guests walked the short distance from the Church up the path and steps to Layer Marney Tower, for the Drinks Reception.
The String Quartet provided the entertainment for the Guests in the sunshine.and it wasn’t long before the happy couple returned. With a few requested family group pictures to do we got on with them, followed later by some fun bridal party pictures, with the Flowergirls providing us with some extra fun pictures. 
Making sure Rebecca and James had time to talk to their Guests we just went for a short walk around Layer Marney with them for a few pictures. The Wedding Breakfast took place in the Long Gallery and was followed by the Speeches. Afterwards everybody enjoyed the evening sunshine before the start of the evening Reception. When it was time for the First Dance, Rebecca and James surprised their Guests with a superb rehearsed dance. With their dancing shoes on, their Guests then joined them on the dance floor. A firework display happened later on in the evening and that is when our coverage of this lovely day ended.
It was nice to work with Emma Brooks,make up artist and Andrew of Crystal Clear and no doubt we will be working with them again soon.
We met Sophie and Glen one evening to take a few pre-wedding pictures and talk about their Wedding soon at Layer Marney Tower, Layer De La Haye.
Thank you to everybody who attended Layer Marney Wedding Fayre and Fennes Open Day, despite the weather. We were delighted to speak to many people and chat about their Weddings.
It was a lovely day when we arrived at Laura’s family home for the bridal preparations. With lots going on there was plenty to photograph including pictures of the girls with the Camper Vans, before leaving to go to St Peter & St Paul’s Church,West Mersea. Following the Church Service, we took some requested family group pictures as well as a couple of pictures of Laura and Mark. Layer Marney Tower was was the venue chosen for the Reception by Laura and Mark and as always proved to be a good choice. Unbeknown to Mark, his Classic Ford Escort Rally car was at Layer Marney, a surprise by one of his brothers who had restored it for him! 
A Drinks Reception was held in the grounds,whilst we created some relaxed bridal party pictures together with a few portraits of Laura and Mark around Layer Marney, including the Lake and Barn.
Speeches followed the Wedding Breakfast, before a couple of evening sunset pictures of Laura and Mark before their First Dance, which is where we took our leave.
It was an early start for us on a beautiful day, as Tina and Nelse were getting ready for their Wedding at The Angel Inn, Stoke by Nayland. Whilst Tina, and Kiera,their Daughter, who was the Flowergirl, were getting dressed, Nelse, their Son, Joshua, who was the Pageboy, Best Men and Ushers had some pictures taken in the inside The Angel Inn as well as in the garden. 
The Layer Marney Weddding Bus arrived to take the Guests as well as Nelse to Layer Marney Tower for the Civil Ceremony. Tina left later in the Layer Marney Rolls Royce after a few pictures. Following the Ceremony in the Corsellis Room, Tina and Nelse went for a short drive whilst their Guests enjoyed the Drinks Reception. We took some candid Guests shots whilst waiting for the couple to return.
Later a few requested family photographs were taken infront of the Tower and in the grounds. The Guests enjoyed relaxing and socialising in the warm sunshine watching the fun bridal party pictures going on. We were able to steal Tina and Dave away for a short time for some pictures of the two of them by the Lake and in the Barn before the Wedding Breakfast. Speeches were before the BBQ and this was followed by a live band playing in the Courtyard, where Guests danced and socialised. Tina and Nelse were happy to have a couple of pictures of them in the evening before their First Dance in the Long Gallery.
A long relaxing enjoyable day was what Tina and Nelse had envisaged and it came true.
