Coombe Lodge Somerset Wedding of Joanna & Lee

Last Saturday I set off to Midsomer Norton to Joanna’s family home to meet up with the girls for the morning fun and usual Bridal preparations. A bit grey to start, but the sun soon poked its head through, a fine day ahead assured :-)

Next it was a trundle to St Michaels Church in Compton Martin, a beautiful Church indeed (if you ever get the chance to visit I thoroughly recommend it) and there I met up with Lee and the boys. Soon Joanna made her arrival and it was down the aisle to marry her man. A very lovely service and Mr and Mrs Cornwall exited into the summer sun, showered with a plethera of confetti and then happy couple escaped into the peacefulness of their wedding car and headed off to the reception.

On to Combe Lodge in Blagdon Somerset for the reception, a beautiful country house. Summer sunshine, Pimms, canapes, good company good humour, relaxation for all and a time to catch up and wish congratulations. A few family photographs achieved, some more mingling and then some quiet itme for Joanna and Lee and an opportunity for me to photograph them on their own.

Insside now and a wonderful wedding breakfast followed by some hilarious speeches, (I felt like I was back at school!) and of course the traditional cutting of the wedding cake. The room cleared, band set up and time for the first dance…not the end though as proceedings are interupted and we are asked to evacuate the building for safety reasons!! Actually its a ploy to fool the lovely Joanna who has no idea her new husband has planned a suprise firework display…fabulous!

What a wonderful day indeed :-)

 

Here are just a few of my favourites from Joanna and Lees Somerset wedding….

Maunsel House Somerset Wedding of Jayne & Paul

Last Thursday saw me heading back to the very lovely Maunsel House in Somerset for the wedding of Jayne and Paul. The sun was out a perfect warm sunny summers day, just right for an outdorrs wedding ceremony. On arrival I headed up to the Kings room to find Jayne and the girls, then off outside as Jayne was whisked away out the back door to arrive in style down  Maunsels fab front drive in a lovely Horse and carriage. A lovely ceremony in the bandstand and then Jayne and Paul headed off for a little perambulation in their Horse and Carriage…and why not.

Arriving back to their awaiting guests, canapes and Pimms on the lawn, a few family formal photo’s and some quiet ones just for Jayne and Paul. All too soon its time to head into Maunsel House itself for the wedding breakfast followed by the traditional speeches, cutting of the wedding cheesecake! and of course coffee and mints to follow.

Time now for Jayne and Paul to take their first dance as husband and wife and then for me to leave the proceedings and let them dance the night away.

Maunsel House Somerset Wedding of Mel & Crispin

Last Monday saw me head back to the fabulous Maunsel House in Somerset for the wedding of Mel and Crispin.

A lovely sunny day, perfect for an outdoors ceremony. First upstairs to the Kings room for Bridal preparations and then back out into the gardens to the bandstand to join Crispin in waiting for his bride to arrive. A lovely ceremony, followed by pimms and canapes, the formal photographs and a quiet wander with Mel and Crispin for some romantic shots.

Back inside now for the wedding breakfast followed by the tradtional speeches, cutting of the cake and of course coffee and mints. All too soon its time for Mel and Crispin to take to the dance floor for their official first dance before the DJ can then step up the tempo for everyone to dance the night away.

 

Here are just a few images from Mel and Crispins big day….
