Beth & Dave's Welsh Wedding at Tower Hill Barns

/
A Tower Hill Barns Wedding in North Wales

Once again I was back at the lovely Tower Hill Barns in North Wales, this time for Beth & Dave’s big day!

The pair chose to say their I do’s in the quaintest little Welsh church before heading over to the barn to celebrate in style as Husband & Wife. After a bit of a grey start to the day, the sun came out in full force just in time for the guests to enjoy drinks on the terrace and to whisk Beth & Dave off again for some evening portraits. After a pretty rainy week it was an honour to be blessed with such beautiful light to work with!

Beth & Dave, thanks so much for asking me to be a part of your beautiful, beautiful day. I hope you’ve had an amazing honeymoon & looking through your blog will ease any holiday blues <3

 

Becky & Rich's Tower Hill Barns wedding in North Wales

Becky & Rich, Tower Hill Barns Wedding Photography

Becky & Rich decided to ditch the traditions and just have a bloody good day, exactly how they wanted it.

There were no formal photographs, no cake cutting, no first dance. But there were not one, but FIVE Cocker Spaniels, a giant tv screen playing the England World Cup match & an outdoor rave to the amazing gospel singers from Sing Out Music. Any wedding featuring a dog is a success in my eyes, so you can't imagine how excited I was when I saw five of them (all sporting bow ties) running towards Becky.

It was so so great to be back at Tower Hill Barns again for my seventh wedding at the gorgeous venue too! I swear it just keeps getting better there! It's the perfect venue for a chilled out knees up with great food and a great atmosphere.

Becky & Rich, I hope you love your preview... can't wait to show you the rest <3

 

Abi & Nick's Quaker Wedding at Tower Hill Barns

2017-06-30_0002.jpg

I first met Abi when she was a bridesmaid at a wedding I photographed back in 2015. We then crossed paths again when Abi, Nick & her parents attended an open house day at a Tower Hill Barns where they booked me for their big day! I'd had had such a great time at Steph & Andy's wedding, I knew Abi & Nick's would be amazing too and they definitely didn't let me down!

I started the day with the girls in the bridal suite above the New Barn. Everyone was in great spirits and the girls were way ahead of schedule which left us with enough time to relax and enjoy the pampering session, (a rare occurrence!) When Abi & her entourage were dolled up ready to go, she headed outside arm in arm with her Dad for her ceremony under the bridge.

Abi & Nick had a Quaker Service which is carried out in silence, so after Abi & her dad walked down the aisle to an eagerly awaiting Nick, I put down my camera until the Meeting was over. Once the ceremony had come to an end, all the guests, no matter how young or how old, were invited up to sign as a witness to their marriage & congratulate the newly-wed's!

Abi & Nick were absolute troupers & agreed to head out for their photographs in the rain. They had huge big smiles plastered across their faces & seemed totally unaware of the elements. As we headed out of the field back to the venue, a huge rainbow appeared stretching over the entire barn... a much deserved reward for Abi & Nick's positivity!

 

Lauren & Mat's Easter Wedding at Tower Hill Barns, North Wales

/
Mat & Laurens Tower Hill Barns Wedding

I first met Lauren & Mat all those years ago in high school... fast forward 15 years & I had the honour of photographing their wedding day & watching them become husband and wife after 11 years together.

I headed over to Tower Hill Barns in Wrexham and met Lauren & the girls getting ready in the new cottages, which by the way, are gorgeous! It was so exciting for me to walk into bridal prep and be greeted by a room full of school friends. As the girls finished up getting ready, I headed into the barn to see how Mat was doing before the ceremony. It was such a great moment to see him stood there with "the boys from school" a.k.a the groomsmen, lined up next to him wedding ready in their suits.

Lauren looked beautiful walking down the aisle in her beaded dress, bouquet made by her mum & a big smile on her face. After the ceremony it was back to the bar to celebrate the occasion as me Lauren & Mat headed out into the sunshine for their portraits. We were shortly joined by the son Louis who loved the suggestion of Mum & Dad swinging him round the field!

I know I'm probably a bit biased but I had SO much fun. Photographing a friends wedding really doesn't feel like work in the slightest, being able to witness their day was an absolute pleasure & a day I'll always remember.

Thanks so much for inviting me to share your day with you :)

 

Nia & Joe's Sunny March Wedding at Tower Hill Barns in North Wales

2017-03-26_0067.jpg

It feels like a lifetime ago that I met Nia & Joe in Chester to discuss their wedding plans but as usual, the build up to their big day flew by and the next thing we knew, it was here!

The day before the wedding had been glorious, blue skies & warm sunshine (not your typical March weather at all.) I went to bed with all of my fingers and toes crossed in the hope that the weather would last for the wedding and as you can tell, it did! I started the day off photographing Nia & her bridesmaids getting ready at their home in Cheshire. As a photographer, you never quite know what to expect when you walk into the house the morning of the wedding but I was greeted by smiles and such a calm & relaxed atmosphere. I could tell it was going to be a good day right from the off!

Nia & Joe got married in St. Deiniol's Church in Hawarden, North Wales, a beautiful little church in North Wales with lovely grounds surrounding it. After a touching ceremony it was time to jump in the car and head over to Tower Hill Barns to celebrate & make the most of the sunshine.

I know I've said several times already but the weather was PERFECT. Once we got to Tower Hill we left the guests to it and headed into the nearby field to wander round in the sunshine and create some beautiful portraits. We even got a sunset... IN MARCH!

 

Lauren & Paul's North Wales, Tower Hill Barn Wedding

/

This was my second wedding in Tower Hill Barns in the space of a week and I couldn't wait to get back... The weather forecast was so awful in the lead up Lauren & Paul's day & I was so sad that we might not get a chance to go outside to make the most of the beautiful grounds, but our prayers were answered and the skies cleared just after the ceremony ended, giving us ample opportunity to make the most of fields & grass lined bridge that Tower Hill Barns has to offer!

Lauren & Paul's wedding had some of THE best speeches I've ever heard (and I've heard a lot...) The whole room was howling in laughter with a surprise performance from the bridesmaids & envelopes full of baby photographs from the "three adequate men" - Paul's words, not mine.

Also, please check out Lauren & Paul's cake. You won't regret it!
