Twilight Weddings were made for the kind of day Karen and Ray had yesterday at the always beautiful Friern Manor.
When I arrived, Karen was in the bridal suite getting ready and it’s fair to say she looked beyond amazing!
As Karen and her crew made their way to the ceremony, Ray was eagerly awaiting his beautiful bride.
He didn’t need to wait long though. Karen made her big entrance right on time and she blew everyone away.
The ceremony itself was really lovely. Short and very sweet and all sealed with a walk back down the aisle to cheers and applause from some very excited guests.
Next was my favourite part of any wedding but especially a Friern Manor wedding. The very newlyweds and I took a little stroll around the manor house grounds to get some gorgeous photos.
Before we even knew it, it was time for Ray’s (excellent) speech and the cake cutting.
That was followed by a beautiful first dance in which the guests joined their bride and groom.
As the sun was setting and it was time for me to leave them all to it, I stole Karen and Ray away for just a few more minutes for these beauties!
That’s all for this little preview folks.
I’ll add one or two more pictures from this day to the Facebook and Instagram pages as I edit them, so feel free to follow along and re-live some more beautiful moments.
Huge thanks to all at Friern Manor for taking such good care of me and for making sure everything ran smoothly.
Special thanks to Georgina for all her help and organisation skills.
Thanks too to all of Karen and Ray’s wonderful guests for making me so welcome ❤️
Hands up if you had a blast at Karen and Ray’s wedding!
What a beautiful, if a little breezy, day Jess and Mark had yesterday at the gorgeous Woolverstone Hall.
I arrived and found Jess and her crew all ready and very excited.
Meanwhile Mark was awaiting his beautiful Bride. One of the perks of having your friend officiate your wedding is you get some unique photo ops!
Mark didn’t need to wait long. Jess arrived right on time, looking stunning and - obviously - she knocked Mark’s socks off!
The ceremony itself was just great. Very funny (another perk of having a friend officiate), sweet and joyful. And of course, it was all sealed with a big ol’ smooch and a walk back down the aisle to whoops and cheers from some very excited guests!
Then those same very excited guests had a great time absolutely pelting the happy couple with confetti!
We had lawn games, drinks and canapes and a space hopper race. Yes, that’s right.
I briefly stole the very newlyweds away for a little stroll around the epic Woolverstone Hall grounds for their smoochy photos.
After the delicious food had been eaten, the speeches had been expertly delivered and one or two glasses of wine had been enjoyed, it was time to party!
As the time for me to leave them all to it neared, I borrowed our bride and groom for just a few more minutes to grab some evening photos.
That’s all for this little preview folks.
I’ll add one or two more pictures from this day to the Facebook and Instagram pages as I edit them, so feel free to follow along and re-live some more beautiful moments.
Huge thanks to all at Woolverstone Hall for taking such good care of me and for making sure everything ran smoothly.

What a glorious sunny day Rhea and Imogen had at Friern Manor yesterday.
I was only booked to spend 5 hours with these legends but that was still plenty of time to get some beautiful wedding photos for them.
As the ceremony approached, the girls made their way out of the manor house and dazzled their guests with the big reveals!
The ceremony itself was really lovely and all sealed with a big kiss and walk back down the aisle to whoops and cheers from some very excited guests!
Then it was time for my favourite part of any wedding at Friern Manor, a little walk around the beautiful grounds with some very newlyweds to capture some lovely wedding day photos with them.
After some group shots and candids in the gardens it was pretty much time for me to leave 🙁
I’ve seen a few instagram posts this morning that suggest it was a quite a party in the evening and that makes me very happy because these two most definitely deserve a big celebration! It looked like there will be some sore heads (and maybe even some bruises) today - good work!
I’ll add one or two more pictures from this day to the Facebook and Instagram pages as I edit them, so feel free to follow along and re-live some more beautiful moments.
Huge thanks as always to all at Friern Manor for taking such good care of me and for making sure everything ran smoothly.
