Cooling Castle is a lovely and very popular wedding venue but it always looks so beautiful during the months leading up to Christmas and New Year. And the decor at Jamie & Natasha's wedding was no exception. Lots of pretty, sparkly fairy lights and garlands plus decorated Christmas trees made this winter wedding very special and the barn looked extra warm and cosy too!

 A sunny day in November, yes it does happen. Chris & Natalie had their ceremony at St Stephens Church followed by a beautiful reception at Mountains Country House. These guys were both awesome and so much fun! I don't think they stopped laughing and pulling silly faces all day but they honestly took some of the most beautiful photos! They also were both really involved in the decor and have their own wedding venue decor company Love, Lights & Sparkle with Chris hand crafting beautiful wooden arches and letters, highly recommend these guys as a supplier too!

  Dennis & Jenny chose such an awesome venue for their wedding, the beautiful Port Lympne Hotel in Hythe, part of The Port Lympne Animal Reserve. These guys were such a pleasure to photograph and we really wanted to capture the stunning surroundings and gardens in their portrait shots. You can see for miles some parts of this place! We have worked here a few times now and we always get such lovely photos, oh and of course we get to go on safari with the bride, groom and guests. How could we not love our job!

THIS GEORGIAN COUNTRY HOUSE HAS BEAUTIFUL GARDENS, 38 ACRES OF THEM! AND WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY IT WAS TO PHOTOGRAPH A WEDDING, WE LOVE IT WHEN IT'S STILL WARM, SUNNY AND NOT DARK BY 4PM.
  
     We loved photographing James & Emma during their engagement shoot in Blean Woods a few months ago so we kind of had a feeling that these guys were going to be amazing on their wedding day. The venue was The Old Kent Barn, somewhere that we have photographed a few times now and its always lovely for an outdoor Summer wedding as their gardens are beautiful!
Lots of beautiful attention to detail, something we love! And you could see how much they both adored each other, completely and utterly in love! We even captured a mini ceremony in the early evening between the Page Boy & Flower Girl which was so cute!  A summer wedding in one of our favourite seaside venues in Whitstable. We always love a local wedding, especially in our home town. The venues around here are all so beautiful but The Beacon House is definitely something special and getting married out on the front veranda with the beach front views. Dan & Hayley booked us after having a mini shoot with their son on Tankerton Slopes. They had the most perfect sunny August weather, t was fairly informal and very relaxed and was lovely involving their son in the ceremony too. They are a really lovely couple and we had a lovely day photographing them, their family and friends.
 So this was definitely the week for Whitstable weddings, the 2nd of 3 that were all in our beautiful home town, within a few days of each other! We love a venue that we can literally walk to and Whitstable Castle is a really pretty place for a Summer wedding. Everything was all in one place and the castle is located right opposite the path down to Tankerton Beach and has beautiful high maintained gardens. Lee & Rochelle's day really was a beautiful wedding to photograph

   This was our first wedding at Mount Ephraim Gardens which is literally just down the road from us in Hernhill, Faversham and hat a stunning venue it is! James & Kerry's wedding was really fun to photograph as they had plenty of ideas, as did we and we had 10 acres of ground and gardens to play with. Even the little bit of rain didn't stop us. They also put a lot of time and hard work into decorating the venue, so much beautiful detail so there are plenty of these shots included below. Definitely a wedding venue that we would love to return to again soon!
JACK & JESS EASTWELL MANOR & KENT LIFE MAIDSTONE TWO LOVELY VENUES IN ONE DAY. EASTWELL MANOR FOR THE CEREMONY, FOLLOWED BY KENT LIFE FOR THE RECEPTION.

    Jamie & Hannah are an amazing couple and are friends of ours, so when they asked us to photograph their wedding, we were so excited! They had chosen a new venue too, The Red Barn in Capel-Le-Ferne. This is such a lovely space, an 18th Century Barn surrounded by countryside and apart from Hannah's Bridal Prep, everything was to be held in one place.
As we are friends, we were with them from very early on in the morning of the wedding and of course stayed until the end of night, finally putting our camera down after the first dance. It was so special to see Jamie & Hannah not only finally getting married but also to have their gorgeous son Jacob there with them. It was very emotional and it was perfect. The barns were decorated with rustic decorations, VW Campers and VW Beetles as their transport and 5 month old Jacob in his cute little suit. Couldn't have been a more beautiful day! |
