A Wedding at the Country Park Inn with Megan and Shaun

On Saturday we photographed the wedding of Megan and Shaun at the Country Park Inn, Hessle.

The riverside location provides a beautiful backdrop for wedding photography and we were lucky to have a sunny day.

We started our photography for the day with Megan and her bridemaids. Preparations began early for the ceremony at 11 o clock.

Shortly before we met up with Shaun and best man Josh to take some portraits before they headed inside to meet the registrars.

We then went back to see Megan and to complete her bridal portraits.

Once guests were assembled Megan was escorted down the aisle by dad Alan to meet her groom.

Following the service guests enjoyed a celebratory drink in the foyer before heading outside for the all important family group photographs. This is a special part of any wedding and captures precious memories for the couple.

The early start afforded us the luxury of time. This gave us plenty of opportunity to create some special photographs for Megan and Shaun.

The guests enjoyed afternoon tea with the happy couple before they all took a short break.

We met up afterwards with Megan and Shaun to conclude their couple portraits. Hessle Foreshore provides a stunning backdrop for photographs and we were pleased to have sufficient time to do it justice.

In the evening the couple were joined by more family and friends for the celebrations and the first dance.

Megan and Shaun are such a lovely couple and we very much enjoyed photographing their special day. We wish them every happiness in the future.

Hull Wedding Photographer at the Millhouse, Skidby with Lora & Dudley

Lora and Dudley were married on Saturday at the Millhouse Restaurant, Skidby. We had a wonderful day photographing their wedding. We started the day with Lora and her bridesmaids Becky, Lisa, Sophie, Tilly and Kylie who were all getting ready at the Mercure Grange Hotel, in Willerby, before heading out to meet Dudley and his groomsmen Clark, Loyd, Dan, Mark and Danny. After some quick portraits, the guests began to arrive and were whisked inside, before the bride arrived with her father, on a horse drawn carriage. There was much laughter during the service with both of the couples names providing a bit of a challenge and afterwards the guests enjoyed a celebratory drink, whilst the happy couple headed off for a romantic drive with a glass of champagne. As always, we whipped through the group photographs as quickly as possible, so that the couple could enjoy as much time as possible with their guests. A big thanks to the bridesmaids and the groomsmen who were great sports and very helpful rounding everyone on in super quick time. There was a huge cheer during the wedding breakfast, following by a chorus of ‘Old Faithful’ to celebrate the rugby result, after which the speeches commenced. The grooms brother Clark delivered a very entertaining and perfectly judged speech, with humour and a touch of emotion. The evening reception was soon underway with more guests arriving and the couple took to the sparkling dance floor for their first dance. We had a truly wonderful day with Lora, Dudley and their family and friends, and we will them all every happiness in the future.

Wedding Photography with Kelly and Richard

I am pleased to share the preview wedding photography for Kelly and Richard who were married on Friday, at St Swithins Church in Sproately. We had a lovely day with them and their family and friends. Kelly looked beautiful and elegant in her dress from Jaynes of Doncaster and Richards suit was from T M Lewis. The were attended by bridesmaid Lucy who was great fun and a fantastic help throughout the day and best man Fred. Flowers were by the Daisy Chain, Skirlaugh and the cake was made for them by Boucakez of Preston. Our thanks to the vicar Jon, who is always so welcoming and makes our job so much easier. The weather was mostly on our side, though the wind played havoc with Kelly’s dress and veil! Just as we arrived at Wyton Abbey, there was a rumble of thunder and the heavens briefly opened! Bright summer sunshine soon followed and we were able to complete the photographs as planned outside. Kelly and Richard very much wanted their wedding photography to be as informal as possible and we had a lot of laughs during the photos of the bridal party. Guests enjoyed a celebratory drink and canapés before dinner and when they sat down to eat, we took a much needed break. The evening celebrations were soon underway and the happy couple took to the floor with their headphones for the ‘silent disco’. I have to say it was quite a surreal experience photographing everyone dancing when we couldn’t hear the music but it did make us chuckle! Kelly and Richard are a really lovely couple and it was evident to everyone how much they love each other. We wish them every happiness in their future life together.

Preview Wedding Photography for Claire and Steven

I am delighted to share with you the preview wedding photography for Claire and Steven who were married at Eastrington Church and held their reception at Boothferry Golf Club on Saturday. We arrived early at the brides home and preparations were well under way. The girls had already had their hair done by Pro Styling in Goole and the make up was well in underway. Claire’s gorgeous dress was from Bridal Oasis in Goole and the look was finished off beautifully with her bouquet from All Occasion Flowers, Howden. The bridesmaids Molly, Anna, Jayne and Holly looked lovely in their sage green dresses and little flower girl Jasmine complete the pretty picture in her gorgeous flower girls dress! We met up with Steven and his best man Lee at the church and unfortunately the rain had set in. We were soon joined by ushers Kevin, Antony and Kevin, and were able to dash outside for some photographs, whist there was a brief respite from the rain. Guests began to arrive and were entertained inside the church by singer Matthew Clarke and the rain kept coming! The bride arrived with her father and they made a spirited dash for the church under the cover of an umbrella, and the all important ceremony was soon underway. The couples son Frankie completely stole the show in church dashing around excitedly and sharing his best monster impressions! The happy couple exited the church once the rain eased, and we managed to grab a few group photographs before everyone made their way to the reception. Once at the golf club, the rain eased for a short while and the little ones (and one bigger ‘boy’!) enjoyed blowing bubbles on the first tee! The marque looked beautiful and following the meal, guests were delighted with a surprise appearance from the Singing Waiters and a good time was had by all! Claire and Steven are a really lovely couple and we very much enjoyed being part of their special day. We wish them every happiness for the future and look forward to sharing all of their wedding photography with them soon.
