A Sunshine-Filled Ceremony

As guests arrived, they were greeted by the warm rays of the sun and the cheerful sight of sunflowers, which Beth had chosen as the theme for the day. The ceremony took place in the garden, with rows of chairs arranged on the perfectly manicured lawn. Beth, looking radiant in her white gown, walked down the aisle adorned with sunflower arrangements. John, beaming with joy, waited for her beneath a floral arch, where they exchanged vows in front of their closest family and friends.

Family and Laughter

Family was at the heart of Beth and John’s wedding. The couple made sure to include special moments with their loved ones throughout the day. From the heartfelt speeches that brought both tears and laughter, to the playful antics of the children running around the gardens, every moment was filled with the joy of being surrounded by family.

Stunning Surroundings

The grounds of Nettlestead Place provided endless opportunities for stunning photographs. The golden light of the setting sun cast a magical glow over the landscape, creating picture-perfect memories that Beth and John will cherish forever.

Surrounded by the love of their family, the laughter of their friends, and the stunning beauty of the Kent countryside, they began their married life together in the most perfect way possible.

Gildings Barn Newdigate Wedding: Georgia + Matt https://www.someplacenicephotography.co.uk/blog/2024/3/gildings-barn-newdigate-wedding-georgia-matt Love knows no bounds, and neither does creativity when it comes to Georgia and Matt's enchanting wedding celebration. Set against the rustic charm of Gildings Barns, this couple crafted a day filled with whimsy, style, and a dash of Nordic flair. Join us as we delve into the magical world of Georgia and Matt's wedding, where family, friends, and a touch of Harry Potter combined to create unforgettable memories.

The Venue: Gildings Barns

Nestled amidst the rolling hills of the English countryside, Gildings Barns provided the perfect backdrop for Georgia and Matt's special day. Its weathered wooden beams and expansive grounds exuded a sense of history and charm, setting the stage for a celebration that would be nothing short of extraordinary.

A Stylish Affair

From the moment guests arrived, they were greeted with an atmosphere of style and elegance. The bride, Georgia, stunned in a gown that blended traditional elegance with modern flair with a stunning bouquet of dried flowers from Everearthco, while Matt cut a dashing figure in his tailored suit. But it wasn't just the couple who turned heads – the bridal party, dressed in striking green bridesmaid dresses, added a pop of color that perfectly complemented the natural beauty of the surroundings.

Embracing Tradition with a Twist: The Viking Theme with Harry Potter-Inspired Accents

Drawing inspiration from their shared love of history and mythology, Georgia and Matt decided to infuse their wedding with a Viking theme and a touch of magic – a nod to their adventurous spirits and the strength of their bond. From the intricately designed table decor with Nordic motifs to their hanging candles and golden snitch adorning the ceiling in the main barn.

Celebrating Love and Friendship

At its heart, Georgia and Matt's wedding was a celebration of love, friendship, and the bonds that unite us. Surrounded by their nearest and dearest, they exchanged vows that spoke of a lifetime of adventures yet to come. Laughter and joy filled the air as guests toasted the newlyweds, their glasses raised high in tribute to a love that knows no bounds.

Thank you Georgia and Matt for being such a joy to photograph. I wish you love and happiness for the future.

The farm is where Francesca keeps her gorgeous horse Harry so of course we had to include him in some of the photos. Harry was such a star on the day, he always managed to stand still at just the right time and he loved to munch on his mints. Francesca and Lee both clearly adore him and I can completely understand why as we are now both utterly smitten.   

Francesca and Lee are clearly made for each other. Not only do they both love horses they are completely at ease with each other. They laughed at chatted as we took a stroll around the farm talking about their plans for their big day. They got engaged whist on holiday in the Maldives. Lee planned it all carefully out as he bought the ring whilst they were in Dubai on work without her knowing, they then travelled onto the Maldives where he proposed with the ring. Francesca had no idea but the holiday turned out to be the best one ever!

Thank you both for being so relaxed we can't wait to photograph your wedding in a few weeks.

The day was celebrated with their friends and family and with Jacqueline's Mum singing to the couple during their ceremony it was a touching service.

Winter Engagement: Charlotte + Joe https://www.someplacenicephotography.co.uk/blog/2017/3/winter-engagement-charlotte-joe On a crisp sunny winters day we met Charlotte and Joe at local park. We wrapped up warm and took a stroll around the lake taking in the beautiful view and frozen lake. Charlotte and Joe were just so relaxed right from the start. They are so clearly happy to be in each others company that they laughed and smiled the whole time.

They met whist working at a ski resort in France. Charlotte had worked at this resort before and asked to go again as it was her 21st Birthday. Joe was working his first season and by pure chance he ended up working in the same place. They hit it off straight away and spent the entire season together. Joe proposed to Charlotte at their favourite spot in Wales at a castle at the very top of a hill. Charlotte had mentioned how lovely the day was and Joe said that he would like to make it even lovelier. He bent to get something out of his pocket, as it was close to Easter Charlotte thought it might be some chocolate but to her surprise it was an engagement ring!

Charlotte and Joe thank you for being so calm and relaxed we can't wait for your wedding.

The view was beautiful. The lake was frozen and made the most amazing noise when a stone was dropped onto it.

It was cold but that didn't bother Charlotte and Joe.
Charlotte and Joe were so relaxed with each other.

Charlotte you are just gorgeous.

The woodland was stunning. They were full of giggles. We made a friend while we were there.

We can't wait for your wedding.

Reigate Castle Engagement: Jacqueline + Matt https://www.someplacenicephotography.co.uk/blog/2016/5/reigate-castle-engagement-jacqueline-matt I met Jacqueline and Matt at Reigate Castle grounds on a warm spring day. Reigate Castle was built around 1150 by William de Warenne. It was occupied during the civil war and left ruinous in 1648. Jacqueline and Matt often visit Reigate Castle together and it will always hold a special place in their hearts. It was the prefect place to have their Engagement photos. We strolled around the beautiful grounds and took in the wonderful surroundings. Jacqueline and Matt's warm and caring relationship just shone through. We literally laughed the whole time we were there. I can't wait for their wedding later this year.

Reigate Castle grounds are hidden behind the town centre with caves underneath.

Although now in ruins many of the original features still remain today.

It was occupied during the civil war.

This small stone pyramid guards a underground Sally Port (the irony of the name is not lost on me). It is a secure entryway to a deep wide ditch.

Spring had definitely arrived.

Matt always held Jacqueline with a light caring touch.

The Bluebells were a joy to find hidden away.

We took a walk around the grounds.

Jacqueline your laughter was so infectious.

The remains of the castle provided the perfect backdrop.

Jacqueline, that smile.

Jacqueline proudly showed off her engagement ring.

Jacqueline and Matt simply enjoyed being together.

Matt is kind and caring and has an amazing sense of humour. No one can make Jacqueline laugh like he can.

I can't wait for their wedding later this year.

This beautiful family owned and run wine estate is one of the largest wine producers in the UK. Nestled in the heart of the Surrey Hills this was the perfect setting for a perfect day. Laura and Jason were married at St. Bartholomew's Church, Horley with all their friends and family. There was smiles and laughter for the whole day.

Denbies Wine Estate

Laura's dress was waiting in her daughter's room and just look at those gorgeous shoes!

Mother's and daughter's shoes. I just love these shoes.

Laura's dress was covered in lace.

A special gift.

Laura's daughter's beautiful bridesmaid's dress.

Literally EVERYONE enjoyed putting on their make up. Laura's flowers were such beautiful colours

There were drinks all round.

Laura's Mother helped her into her dress while her daughter looked on. Everyone helped out even their family dog. That moment when her Father saw her for the first time. Laura, you are just beautiful.

Laura and her bridesmaids went to the church in style in this beautiful Rolls Royce.

Jason and his Groomsmen at St. Bartholomew's church, Horley Laura's bridesmaid's dresses were stunning.

Their guests even seemed to followed the same colour code. Ye Olde Six Bells was next door to the church and it was a great place for their guests to meet and relax before the ceremony.

Everyone enjoyed the sun before the ceremony. Their guests faces say it all.

But Laura and Jason's daughter stole the show. Such a magical moment. Their friends and family looked on. I just love this little bridesmaid's pose. She literally danced her way through the cereony. That's the way to live life. A high five to finish. They held their reception at Denbies Wine Estate, Dorking, Surrey A champagne reception for the Bride and Groom but the day was just too tiring for their daughter who fell asleep on the journey there. We took Laura and Jason into the Vineyard for some quiet time. The vineyard at Denbies Wine Estate is the perfect backdrop. There's always time for group photos organised by Laura's Father. Such beautiful colours. The conservatory Atrium was an amazing space and so beautifully decorated.

Each table had wine from Denbies own vineyard.

Popcorn and sweets for their guests. Laura just couldn't hide her excitement when she saw the room for the first time.

Gildings Barn Newdigate Wedding: Abby + Carl https://www.someplacenicephotography.co.uk/blog/2015/8/gildings-barn-newdigate-wedding-abby-carl Photographing Abby and Carl's wedding was such a pleasure. You couldn't meet two people more perfect for each other. The day was filled with fun, tears and laughter.....so much laughter.

The day started at Abby's parents house. We could hear the laughter the minute we walked through the door with seven bridesmaids, two flower girls, makeup artists, hairdressers, parents and a 6 week old baby! Abby's bridesmaids hadn't seen her dress and their reaction was priceless at the grand reveal.

Abby and Carl were married at St. Nicholas Church in Godstone, Surrey. Their reception which was beautifully decorated was held at Gildings Barn, Newdigate, Surrey

Thank you for being such a joy to photograph and I wish you fun, happiness and so much laughter for the future!

 Every detail was carefully planned with many things handmade. Even the beautiful order or service was handmade. Such a beautiful dress. Abby got ready at her Parent's house surrounded by her seven bridesmaids. Abby's beautiful flowers were made by a close friend. Completed with two fairytale wands. So much laughter. Abby's Mum looked on as Abby put on on her gorgeous dress.  Abby's sister helped with the final touches. Abby you are simply stunning. Abby's bridesmaids reaction to seeing her in her dress was priceless. There's always time for a selfie. A Mustang as the wedding car......yes please.
Carl with his two best men. Amazing cuff links. They got married at St Nicholas Church in Godstone. Abby's seven bridesmaids wore stunning mint green dresses.
The mint green colour could be seen in the flowers and even on the flower girls socks.
The day before it poured with rain all day but on the day the weather was perfect. Abby just beamed. A quick moment with her Dad before she went in the church.

The smile on Abby's face says it all. Smiles all round. Everyone gathered by the gate to throw their confetti. They held their reception at Gildings Barn, Newdigate. A beautiful rustic barn set in the countryside. Once we arrived we took Abby and Carl off for some quiet time on their own. Hidden in the woodlands at Gildings Barn was a log cabin. Just the place for a quiet moment. Gildings Barn was filled with so many beautiful touches made by Abby and Carl. Their guest relaxed in the sun.

The interior was beautifully decorated with fairy lights. Abby and Carl's cake was made by a close friend. It continued the mint theme. They also had a table of photographs to remember those who sadly couldn't be there. The name cards were handmade by Abby and Carl. The barn was filled with flowers from Abby's Gran's garden. Even the table plan. The speeches were heartfelt and emotional.

The wedding was held at Chateau de Detilly in the Loire Valley in France and it was too beautiful for words. Jen's dress was simply amazing. It was completely covered in sequins. Of course they had local wine and Jen surprised her bridesmaids with gifts from Katie Spade.
Gorgeous glittery shoes to match her dress. They were married in a chapel within the grounds of Chateau de Detilly. A perfect place to be married. The weather was perfect. It made everything sparkle. Instead of confetti the couple were showered with bubbles. The Loire Valley has so many beautiful places for photographs. Jen and James had their wedding breakfast in a marquee in the grounds of Chateau de Detilly.
So many thoughtful touches. Everyone danced the night away by the pool at Chateau de Detilly.
