MELANIE & NEIL'S INGATESTONE HALL WEDDING

Here we go, a little sample of Melanie & Neil’s super chilled vibrant wedding at Ingatestone Hall which is nestled in the Essex countryside. Ingatestone Hall is full of historical charm and set in the most stunning landscape. I loved it. Enough talking from me, see for yourself. Especially check out the party photos, that dance floor was on fire!

The rain held off to enable Melanie and Neil to have an outdoor wedding ceremony nestled in the woodlands of Ingatestone Hall, and their drinks reception within the scenic walled gardens.

Dinner and dancing took place in the marquee under the vibrant decor installed by Bubblegum Balloons.

Blake Hall was a popular wedding venue for me in 2022, as I returned there 5 times for weddings in the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. It is a beautiful venue all year round. Mark & Nicola’s Blake Hall wedding took place in the summer. Gorgeous weather, gorgeous styling and so much laughter. It all came together perfectly.

LISA & RICK'S MOOR HALL WEDDING

Lisa and Ricky were so much fun to spend a day with, and their wedding guests were an absolute hoot too! Their wedding ceremony took place at St Andrew’s Church in Hornchurch Essex which is beautiful. My approach to photographing weddings focuses heavily on a documentary style, therefore capturing things as they happen coupled with photographing the details that make your day unique to you. This is very much the approach I took on Lisa and Ricky’s day and I loved every minute.

After the wedding ceremony, we headed to one of my favourite alternative Essex wedding venues, Moor Hall in Aveley for a lively wedding reception. We had an absolute blast especially when the party kicked off in the evening.
