Laura and Olivers  wedding photographs at Northwood House Cowes look absolutely beautiful!

The venue is stunning, with its elegant Georgian architecture and lush gardens.

The bride looked radiant in her white gown with her three bridesmaids. wightphotography-laura-goody-87wightphotography-laura-goody-87 The groom and groomsmen Looked dapper in their tweed.

The wedding was held in the Drawing Room, It is the most lavishly-decorated room in the house, with light, airy colors and French windows that open onto the south-facing lawns. The ceiling of the Drawing Room is something to be marvelled at, with its intricate plasterwork and ornate chandeliers. It is the perfect setting for the wedding ceremony.

 The Cow Tapnell is a great choice for a wedding reception, as it is a relaxed and informal setting with delicious food. I'm sure Laura and Oliver's guests had a wonderful time celebrating their special day.

Lucinda and I were only book for a few hours just to get some images of the ceramony and pictures of the guests having a wonderfull time.

The Cow Tapnell is a converted Swiss barn that is situated at the heart of Tapnell Farm. The menu features a range of burgers, steaks, and other dishes made with locally sourced ingredients. The restaurant has a warm and inviting atmosphere, and the staff are friendly and attentive.

I'm sure Laura and Oliver's wedding meal was a delicious and memorable occasion. I hope they had a wonderful day celebrating their love with their family and friends.

Emma & Lewis @ East Afton. https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2023/7/emma-lewis-east-afton  

Emma & Lewis were married at All Saints in Freshwater, a beautiful church that I believe in parts date back to the Saxon times.

Emma and her bridesmaids started at East Afton where a family relative photographed them getting ready so I only have the dress shots.

Luciana & Ben at Nunwell House. https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2023/6/luciana-ben-at-nunwell-house I had the pleasure of photographing Luciana's wedding to Ben at Nunwell house in Brading recently,  Now I had only shot a wedding at the Coach house on the estate quite a few years ago so it was exciting to have the Manor this time.

We started off at Whitwell in a beautiful cottage with the bridesmaids.

Lloyd & Cariosa At the Old Church Bonchurch then onto the Botanical Gardens Ventnor. https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2022/10/lloyd-cariosa-old-church-bonchurch-then-at-botanical-gardens-ventnor I joind Cariosa at her hotel on the cascade ventnor where we had a fantastic times getting ready, Cariosa's brothers were the bridesmaids and were so funny so much so that I have never seen such a relaxed bride....lol

wightphotography-23wightphotography-23 wightphotography-27wightphotography-27 wightphotography-28wightphotography-28 wightphotography-33wightphotography-33 I then went to see Lloyd at his parents home just a short trip up the road, much more traditional to still relaxed especially when one of the groomsmen tried his first drop of whisky!

wightphotography-58wightphotography-58 wightphotography-69wightphotography-69 wightphotography-70wightphotography-70

wightphotography-40wightphotography-40 wightphotography-109wightphotography-109 Back to the best part of the getting ready photo's I really enjoy this part of the day for its emotions and seeing the brides realise itsall getting real..

wightphotography-125wightphotography-125 wightphotography-120wightphotography-120 wightphotography-172wightphotography-172 wightphotography-176wightphotography-176 wightphotography-188wightphotography-188 wightphotography-199wightphotography-199 wightphotography-200wightphotography-200 wightphotography-212wightphotography-212 wightphotography-213wightphotography-213 wightphotography-215wightphotography-215 I thought we were going out the door to the church,  when Cariosa asked for some images on the glass deck, this totally through me as the cameras were packed and I had not even seen the deck no pressure then Martin especially shooting into the sun!

wightphotography-220wightphotography-220 This first shot was not quite where I wanted it exposure wise as I had to get the background showing and the faces natural not all dark.

wightphotography-234wightphotography-234 wightphotography-235wightphotography-235 Then I got the flash settings and ambiant settings to match and beautiful images happened :-)

Now we are off to the church.

wightphotography-242wightphotography-242

This church is so small it only takes about 50 people and you can only photograph down the middle or over the heads of people.

wightphotography-246wightphotography-246 wightphotography-249wightphotography-249 wightphotography-264wightphotography-264 wightphotography-268wightphotography-268 wightphotography-278wightphotography-278 wightphotography-280wightphotography-280 wightphotography-311wightphotography-311 wightphotography-327wightphotography-327 wightphotography-334wightphotography-334 wightphotography-359wightphotography-359 wightphotography-385wightphotography-385 wightphotography-435wightphotography-435 wightphotography-436wightphotography-436

Now the fun starts a few congratulations in the church yard then off to the Botanical gardens.

wightphotography-477wightphotography-477 wightphotography-480wightphotography-480 wightphotography-564wightphotography-564 wightphotography-584wightphotography-584

wightphotography-1130wightphotography-1130 wightphotography-1136wightphotography-1136 wightphotography-1137wightphotography-1137 wightphotography-1144wightphotography-1144 wightphotography-1148wightphotography-1148 wightphotography-1156wightphotography-1156

And then it was time for the real first dance to an amazing live band from I think London?

I always use off camera flash on the first dance pictures where possible as it gives you those all important shadows and lit areas, it just works for BW images.

wightphotography-1173wightphotography-1173 wightphotography-1187wightphotography-1187 wightphotography-1197wightphotography-1197 wightphotography-1212wightphotography-1212 wightphotography-1217wightphotography-1217

Becky & Marks Albert Cottage Wedding 2022 https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2022/6/becky-marks-albert-cottage-wedding-2022 Becky and Mark had their beautiful wedding at Albert Cottage,  this was the first wedding of the year at this venue for me and I must say it looked stunning.

With amazing flower gardens and borders, the out door summer chairs and tables made it so comfortable and relaxing for the guests.

 

Albert Cottage really is one of the best wedding venues.

Jennifer & Shaun Ventnor Botanical Gardens https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2021/10/jennifer-shaun-ventnor-botanical-gardens Jen and Shaun came over to the Island to have their beautiful wedding at the Botanical gardens.

I started off the wedding by meeting Jen at her flat in Ventnor on one of the most windy days of the year it was horrendous along with rain showers.

Hayley & Alex's beautiful 2020 wedding. https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2021/3/hayley-alex-beautiful-2020-wedding Hayley and Alex's wedding was one of only three that we managed to shoot last year in the middle of the pandemic.  It was a very horse oriented wedding due to Hayley being one of the Islands top show jumpers, and the reception was held at the family farm.

Because of the restrictions on guest numbers it was held with two sessions an afternoon family wedding breakfast and an evening of friends having fun, I was actually very excited about shooting this wedding due to there being such a long time since the last full day of wedding photography.

 

So here we go just a small selection of some of the ones that I liked.

wightphotography-hayley-9wightphotography-hayley-9

I love these shots natural and joyful.

wightphotography-hayley-1wightphotography-hayley-1

Tiger Pens horse and trap looked stunning, and the turnout of the pony could not be faulted I'm sure a lot of brides will be hiring him in the future.

 

 

wightphotography-hayley-10wightphotography-hayley-10

Wow just look at Hayley absolutely beautiful.

wightphotography-hayley-11wightphotography-hayley-11 wightphotography-hayley-12wightphotography-hayley-12

This has to be one of my favourite church images for sometime, the ray of sunlight just caught Hayley and Alex allowing me to darken the church to bring out the windows whilst keeping them exposed nicely.

wightphotography-hayley-15wightphotography-hayley-15 wightphotography-hayley-2wightphotography-hayley-2 wightphotography-hayley-3wightphotography-hayley-3

Back at the farm and what a stunning backdrop to the image.

wightphotography-hayley-5wightphotography-hayley-5 wightphotography-hayley-18wightphotography-hayley-18

Obviously great excitment going on off camera going by the horses pricked ears.....

wightphotography-hayley-19wightphotography-hayley-19 wightphotography-hayley-23wightphotography-hayley-23

A fun time mess about shot that I like, there is a mobile image from a family member that is absolutly amazing which is who Hayley and Alex are looking at.

 But you can't capture them all...lol

wightphotography-hayley-25wightphotography-hayley-25

Almost sunset time so as I always do we went for a walk for a few pic's no real posing or directions just a chilled walk about.

wightphotography-hayley-26wightphotography-hayley-26 wightphotography-hayley-27wightphotography-hayley-27 wightphotography-hayley-28wightphotography-hayley-28

This image was set up with a remote off camera light just to see what we could come up with as it was getting dark.

Kenya https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2021/1/kenya  

On Safari in Kenya 2012
 
This year for my pre-wedding season holiday we went to Kenya, and when in kenya you have got to go on Safari, here are just a few un edited images from the trip
 

Tsavo East National Park - Kenya Safaris

The combined area of Tsavo East and Tsavo West National Parks makes Tsavo one of the world's largest game sanctuaries, larger than Wales in Great Britain or Jamaica in the Caribbean. Lying about halfway between Nairobi and Mombasa it covers 20,812 square kilometers. Tsavo East is larger and more arid than Tsavo West and is less frequented.

The vegetation around Tsavo East National Park is savannah grassland with thorny bushes and some swampy marshland near Voi River. The landscape is unique because of the Yatta Plateau formed from the lava that oozed from Ol Doinyo Sabuk Mountain.
 

Only a small area of Tsavo East National Park's vast nature reserve, larger by far than Tsavo West, is open to the public although new areas for human intrusion are now being added. The remainder provides a remote animal wilderness.

The main river that passes through this park is the River Galana. A variety of animals can be seen: lions, leopard, cheetah, zebras, giraffes, serval, antelopes, kongoni, lesser kudu, oryx, klipspringer, impala, stripped hyena, ostriches, gazelles, buffalos, elephants and many more.

A variety of migratory and native birds are seen. The birds are viewed between late October and early January, and come from as far as Eastern and Western Europe. Commonly seen birds are African skimmers, goshawks, red and yellow bishops, palm nut vultures and the white-headed buffalo weavers.

There are many interesting aspects in the open areas of 
Tsavo East not least the spine of the Yatta Plateau, one of the world's longest lava flows. An additional attraction is the Athi River flanked by stately doum palms which, near the Manyani gate forms the Lugard Falls, a long stretch of rippling white water cataracts and a favorite haunt for sunbathing crocodiles. 

Lugard Falls gush through a small fissure, narrow enough for the foolhardy to leap across, before dropping to Crocodile Point below, where the river changes its name to the Galana. 

Droughts are much more common in Tsavo East than 
Tsavo West, and Aruba Dam built in 1952 has dried up completely at times although it covers an area of 85.4 hectares. This wilderness, seemingly so hostile, is nevertheless inhabited by a wide range of plains' game including zebra, several species of antelope among them lesser kudu and hartebeest, warthog and ostrich as well a elephant herds which plunder their way through bush and scrub to the permanent waters of the Athi River.

Beautiful weddings images from the past that I found whilst cleaning up the computer https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2020/8/beautiful-weddings-images-from-the-past-that-i-found-whilst-cleaning-up-the-computer  

 

My imac had started to really slow down whilst editing so I began to remove all the wedding images from the past few years that were choking up the hard drive, all of these full weddings are on the back up drives.

 

 When I started to clear them out it really brought home to me the different weddings and the fun that I have had at them,  it has to be 300-400 weddings in the last ten years and everyone of them were a pleasure to shoot.

 

December in a full gale out on Ryde sands, freezing cold but great fun.

Miranda and Simon at The Ryde Castle ( including a small video) https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2020/3/miranda-and-simon-at-the-ryde-castle-including-a-small-video A lovely quiet  wedding at the beautiful  Ryde Castle in October 2019, It was a shame that Miranda did not have the nice weather we had been hoping for but she still had a fantastic day with all her loved ones a day of fun, laughter and dancing.

So here we go starting with the all important pamp time....

Jo Lofthouse has to be one of the islands best wedding make-up artists, if you can book her then I would advise you to do so.

I love mirror shots.

Richey & Josh's beautiful ceremony at the Holy Cross Church Binstead https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2020/3/richy-josh-beautiful-ceramony-at-the-holy-cross-church-binstead Richey and Josh were married back in the summer on one of those days when the weather did not know what to do, rain, sun ,clouds we had it all but the day was certainly an amazing experience.

It all started at Richey's family farm where a beautiful marquee had been setup and decorated by the family.

 I turned up whilst the girls were having their hair and makeup done and Lucinda went off to boss Josh and the groomsmen around.

Then it was off to the quaint little church of the holy cross at Binstead to say it was full was an understatement it really added a warm atmosphere and sense of intimacy to the occasion, and having the full choir singing just made it perfect.

I have edited a small video showing the exchanging of the rings.

Richey & Josh.

wightphotography-292wightphotography-292

This is why I always have Lucinda photographing weddings with me, I am at the back of the church Lu is up the front taking shots like this ring image, its just one of those beautiful candid shots that we are always looking for.

wightphotography-333wightphotography-333 wightphotography-346wightphotography-346

What an amazing vail Richey had choosen, both Lu and I went up to the high alter at the same time thinking to spread it out.  The vicar found that quite amusing thank goodness, as usually we never go near the high alter at this part of the service.

wightphotography-387wightphotography-387

Some confetti outside the church then a quick stop at Fishbourne creek for some shots.

wightphotography-410wightphotography-410 wightphotography-534wightphotography-534 wightphotography-536wightphotography-536 wightphotography-548wightphotography-548

Now its fun time and back to the reception for food, alcohol and dancing.

Jazz & Josh at Lakeside Park Hotel and Spa https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2019/10/jazz-josh-at-lakeside-park-hotel-and-spa  

Jazz and Josh came down to the Island for their pre-wedding shoot at the venue for the wedding, the day was grey and poring with rain and I just thought well thats that then a few snaps indoors.....

Nope lets go said Jazz and off we went around the lake getting soaked.

To say that they both love life is an understatement its full on madness we did not stop laughing for the whole hour or so of the shoot so when the big day arrived I knew exactly what to expect and they did not disappoint !

Lorna & James pre-wed shoot https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2018/8/lorna-james-pre-wed-shoot  

I joined Lorna & James at St Catherines Light house for a pre-wedding shoot, James is in the Army so we had to fit this in-between his duties.

The wedding is in September so not long to go now and I am really looking forward to it as its no1's for james and his work mates and that will give them some cracking shots.

So here we go just a few from the shoot.

 

 

Lucinda my 2nd photographer, and myself shoot in a natural photo journalist style with very little posing or direction whilst capturing the beauty of the wedding day.   As a father and daughter team we work exceptionaly well together and this shows in the superb images that you will receive.

 I hope that you enjoyed this sample of Lorna & James amazing pre-wedding shoot.

Natalie and Mark Northwood House/Woodvale https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2018/8/natalie-and-mark-northwood-house/woodvale  

Natalie & Mark 2018

 

wightphotography-newholmwood-1-6wightphotography-newholmwood-1-6

 

Natalie's parents live in Gurnard just up the road from the Woodvale pub so it was an easy choice for Natalie and Mark to get married on the Island.

Mark is an airline pilot and they met whilst working together, love blossomed and with a big family meet up organised on the Island they decided to have the wedding at the same time.

 I started the day at Natalies family home shooting the getting ready images, Isle of Wight Beauty did the hair and makeup and then it was off to Northwood house for a very emotional ceremony, this was then followed by the reception at the Woodvale pub ( a beautiful venue )

So here are a few from the day.

Natalie & Adam Tapnell Farm https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2018/8/natalie-adam-tapnell-farm  

Lucinda and I had the pleasure of shooting Adam & Natalie's beautiful wedding.

The service was at the stunning St Mary the Virgin Church in the quaint village of Brighstone followed by the reception at a new venue for me Tapnell Farm and the Cow barn.

This is how Natalie tells their story....

 

First names:

Adam and Natalie Warren

Ages:

Adam is 32, Natalie 30

Wedding date:

Saturday 30th June 2018

Venue:

Tapnell Farm & Tom’s Eco Lodge

How did you guys meet, tell me all?

It was my friend, Claire’s birthday and to celebrate, our friends and her boyfriend, Stevie and some of his friends joined us in the pub. There was one guy who I’d not seen before who was a friend of Stevie, so I did some digging and got myself introduced. I was supposed to be going on a date that night after the pub… but I made my excuses and spent the night chatting, dancing and drinking with Ads, and the rest as they say – is history!

How did you get engaged, is there a cool story?

We really love Country music and a few years ago did a USA road trip, where we visited Nashville. We had such a long drive getting there and also received some positive family news we were anxious about an hour before we made it to Nashville. So when we arrived, to celebrate we went for a walk on this beautiful bridge that overlooked the city – we had always said that one-day we would go back there, as the moment was just so incredible. Fast forward a good few years later, for my 30th Birthday, Adam surprised me with a trip to a Country Festival in Nashville! When we arrived, we went straight to the bridge and he proposed! It was so lovely and special. Unbeknown to us, a passer by took some pictures Adam on one knee from the other side of the bridge – later that evening, we were the other side of town, amongst a large crowd at a music event and a lady came running up to us, asking if we were on the bridge as she took photos! So we came away with some incredible pictures that captured the moment.

What made you choose your wedding venue, did you look at many?

We wanted somewhere that was really relaxed. We didn’t look at too many, but when we visited Tapnell Farm we fell in love -  we loved that it wasn’t a wedding venue and we could make it one!  The grounds were amazing, the Cow Restaurant was the perfect spot for the evening party and the views everywhere were spectacular. It was pretty cool that the original Isle of Wight Festival was held on the same fields too!

The on-site accommodation (Tom’s Eco Lodge) was out of this world! We could accommodate a huge amount of our guests, so the days before and after the wedding were just as fun as the actual day! It was a mini holiday for everyone – and there is already talk of when we can all go back!

Our wedding night was spent in a hot tub outside one of the cabins with about 15 of our friends near a Chicken coup and field of Cows! Not many Wedding venues have that as part of the Honeymoon Suite, I’m sure!

What was the inspiration/theme of your wedding?

We didn’t have a theme, but as it was on a farm, we wanted to keep it very relaxed. Our main goals were to make sure people were well fed, watered and were having fun – I think we succeeded!

We had Hay Bales for seating and had local buskers, The Tea & Biscuit Boys to provide music, which went down a treat! I just bought and made what I thought looked nice and hoped that it all would come together!

After the dinner, we wanted to keep the ‘well fed, water and fun’ goal going. So our guests enjoyed Mojito Cocktails on the lawn as the sun went down, then we all went inside and danced to the amazing IOW band, Pinstripe! About 10pm, the caterers paid us all a visit with trays loaded of locally made Cornish and Cheese & Onion Pasties – I then had to loosen a few buttons up on the back of my dress!  Most people carried on the party back at the campsite, with lots of us ending up in Hot Tubs!

What is your first song and why?

We were going to do a slow song, but all of the songs we love are up beat! We chose Hall & Oates, You Make My Dreams Come True.

The song has always been a favorite of ours, I once bought a duvet set before we moved in together and embroidered ‘You make my dreams come true’ on the pillow case, so it was even more fitting that we chose this particular song.

What would be your number one tip to other couples planning their wedding?

Enjoy it, relax and don’t stress! Honest.


 

Lucinda and myself shoot in a natural photo journalist style with very little posing or direction whilst capturing the beauty of the wedding day.   As a father and daughter team we work exceptionaly well together and this shows in the superb images that you will receive, I hope that you enjoy this sample of Nat's amazing day.

Mark & Natalie Landguard Manor https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2017/10/mark-natalie-landguard-manor Mad Hatters Tea Party

 

When Natalie and Mark came to see me in the studio we had the usual conversation about albums and how they wanted the wedding to be photographed and then Mark casually added " your going to like this wedding it themed on the mad hatters tea party ".

Now I have shot a lot of themes over the last 370 or so weddings and some have been amazing and others have not quite hit the spot so I thought to myself that it was a big task Mark had set himself.  So did he manage it...........

Mark & Laura, Wedding on the hill! https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2017/5/mark-laura-wedding-on-the-hill  

 

wightphotography-isle of wight -74wightphotography-isle of wight -74

 

 

Jen and I have known the Holmes family for many years and have watched Mark grow from a baby in nappies to the fantastic person that he is now, so when Mark & Laura announced their engagement and I was asked to be the wedding photographer I felt really honoured.

 So the great day arrived, I went to Mark & Laura's home to shoot the getting ready photo's whilst Lucinda my second photographer went off to Marks parents house to photograph the boys, the girls take.... well hours to be ready,  the boys....all of 5 minutes...lol.

 Then it was off to All Saints Church in Ryde on the Isle of Wight. 

After a beautiful service packed with emotion it was back to the family farm and with the  reception on top of a hill with stunning views of the beautiful Island it just had to be the perfect place to party!

 

So here we go.

 

First names:

Laura Butler & Mark Holmes

Ages:

Laura - 27 & Mark - 29

Wedding date:

27th May 2017

Venue:

Ceremony at All Saints Church, Ryde & reception in a marquee in Rookley

How did you guys meet, tell me all?

Mark and I both knew someone who suggested I came over for Bestival one year, so I did and we went to Marks family pub, The Chequers Inn, the night before, that was when we very first met. From then on we done the same thing for a few years but each time we gradually spent a bit more time together meeting up at the festival. Then after Bestival 2014 Mark told me he wanted to take me out on a date, which he did a few weeks later!

How did you get engaged, is there a cool story?

Our engagement was like something from a film! My Birthday was coming up in January and Mark said we should do something for it, for which we came to the agreement of going up to London for a weekend, little did I know that he had planned this but somehow made me feel like I came up with the idea. I think it was the Thursday when Mark phoned me when I was at work and said to make sure I wore something nice to go out for dinner on the Friday, and when I got home my Mum was going through my wardrobe with me to make sure I was going to be dressed appropriately. So I thought, wow, he must be taking me somewhere nice! We arrived to the hotel on the Friday and Mark had already planned with the taxi where we were going, so I was very shocked when we then pulled up outside The Ritz!! We got seated at our table and we both found it hilarious about how posh it was and how out of place we felt, but it was very very nice. We had what felt like about 10 courses, which was lovely, then we were waiting for our desert… I saw some waiters coming out with a big rose, and I turned to Mark and said ‘oh look, someone’s getting a rose’! Then I see two plates being bought out, which had different silver lids on, again I turned to Mark and said ‘how come they’re getting silver lids?!’ The next bit seems a bit of a blur, they bought the two plates with the silver lids over to our table, they put the rose down and then they put the two plates down and lifted the lids to which I look down at my plate and see a ring! I didn’t say anything for a while just stared at my plate then Mark got down on the floor on one knee, of course I started to cry, neither of us are completely sure what Mark said whilst down on one knee but it was lovely. Mark then got up to put the ring on my finger, knocking over my glass of wine, at this point I still don’t think I had said anything but I think I did manage to finally say yes!

What made you choose your wedding venue, did you look at many?

We did look round a few churches but we needed one big enough to fit all of our many guests in! We were set on the marquee from the start.

What was the inspiration/theme of your wedding?

We wanted to go with a rustic/vintage theme, we also wanted an informal day to get everyone together to all have a good time.

What is your first song and why?

We chose Eagle Eye Cherry – Save the night. We chose this song because of the lyrics, the first 2 and a half years of our relationship was long distance. Mark lived on the island and I lived on the mainland so only got our weekends together, which was tough, the lyrics of this song are all about saving the last night with each other, and making the most of it, before having to leave.

What would be your number one tip to other couples planning their wedding?

Start planning straight away, time just goes so quickly, you can’t prepare enough!

The singing waiters ( Silver Service Singers ) were a surprise from Sue, Marks mother, Sue told me that she had had sleepless nights about what they would do and how good they were........ Well they really made the reception, they sang superbly and the interaction with the party was amazing.

 I think Jess quite enjoyed the attention as well!

The first two images below are evening shots with extra lighting to give a dramatic look to them, I do this at most weddings to give the couple a few Hollywood style photographs that are a bit more dramatic than usual.

Kelly & Kevin @ Northwood House Cowes Isle of Wight https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2017/5/kelly-kevin-northwood-house-cowes-isle-of-wight  

wightphotography-Northwood-House-46wightphotography-Northwood-House-46

 

 

Kelly & Kevin were married at Northwood House, lots of sun and a strong wind but still a beautiful day.  I started at Kellys home then it was all at Northwood, the ceramony room is stunning and set the scene for the rest of the day.  Later on in the afternoon we had a walk about for a few snaps where I used my new 10-24mm wide lens for the first time, quite pleased with the look of the images from it.

So here we go.....

 

 

First names:

Kevin & Kelly

Ages:

Kevin – 44, Kelly - 36

Wedding date:

20th May 2017

Venue:

Northwood House, Cowes

How did you guys meet, tell me all?

It’s an embarrassing story – perhaps best left off the blog?

I was in an unhappy relationship with another guy.  Kevin was friends with said guy.  I once, genuinely innocently, offered Kevin dating advice………which led to further conversations via text and the eventual realisation that we were right for each other.  I broke up with said guy and Kevin and I formed a relationship shortly after. 

How did you get engaged, is there a cool story?

Kevin proposed at Land’s End in Cornwall during a week off the Island.  He walked around with the ring in his pocket the whole day but never found the ‘right’ moment to make the proposal.  He eventually managed to ask the question sat in the car park before the drive back to the hotel!

What made you choose your wedding venue, did you look at many?

When Kevin suggested we should set a date, I said I would book several venues to look around.  We knew a Church wedding wasn’t for us and so I searched through the lists of civil venues on the Island.

Northwood House stood out and so I booked to visit here first.  Unfortunately, due to work commitments Kevin was unable to come to the initial appointment.  During that first meeting with Darren Cool, Events Manager, it was quite clear that his approach to weddings was exactly in-line with what Kevin and I had envisioned – very relaxed, laid-back, informal.  There didn’t seem any point in visiting any other places and so we booked.

What was the inspiration/theme of your wedding?

It was important to us that our wedding was as relaxed as possible and that the day had an informal feel to it.  We are not an extravagant couple and wanted our wedding to reflect the importance of getting married.

Our tables will be decorated with jam jars filled with flowers, some of which come from my parents’ garden.  Our wedding breakfast is a high tea, where all of the vintage crockery has been sourced online or from charity shops, mainly by my mum.

Kevin’s mum has made personalised bunting, button brooches for the bridesmaids, a ring pillow and other keepsakes for the maid of honor and myself.  Other personalised items have been made by myself and Kevin.

There’s not a formal theme as such.  Pinterest was used to get ideas for the colour scheme (aubergine and silver) and the clothing worn by the bridal party reflect this.

The aim has not been to spend money just for the sake of it I guess.  It’s important to us that we get to spend the day with our family and closest friends and just enjoy it. 

What is your first song and why?

Our first song is ‘I Won’t Give Up’ by Jason Mraz.

I sat for hours and listened to dozens of popular first dance songs.  The lyrics of this one just fitted right.

What would be your number one tip to other couples planning their wedding?

  • Organise the ‘big’ things first – venue, dress, photographer, make-up, flowers.
  • Set a budget and stick to it.
  • Write lists so you don’t forget things – helps with the stress
  • Don’t feel pressurised to invite people because you feel you should.

Off to Northwood House for the ceremony and reception, I was amazed at the transformation that has been made to the Northwood House it has gone from being very run down to looking beautiful,  I would really recommend looking at this venue for your wedding.

Laura & James @ Ryde Castle https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2017/5/laura-james-ryde-castle  

 

Laura & James picked one of the sunniest days so far this year for their wedding.  The church was the beautiful  quaint  Holy Cross Binstead followed by the reception at the lovely Ryde Castle,  Lots of fun, laughter and a few tears from James....lol

So here we go then a bit of Laura & James life, and lots of images from the day

 

First names: Laura and James

 

Ages: Both 27

 

Wedding date: 29-04-17

 

Venue: Holy Cross Binstead Church and the Ryde Caslte

 

How did you guys meet, tell me all? On New Year’s Eve 2007 we met at Ryde balcony after midnight James walked me home to make sure I got home safe. The following day he text me to ask to meet up again and we haven’t been apart since.

 

How did you get engaged, is there a cool story? Me and James moved in to a new home in Feb 2009 and on valentine’s day he made me breakfast in bed and he put the ring on the rose that was on the tray then knelt on one knee and asked me to marry him. He had also gone and asked my dad a couple of days before.

 

What made you choose your wedding venue, did you look at many? We looked at a couple but a majority of our friends and family live in Ryde so we wanted somewhere close and Ryde Castle is beautiful inside.

 

What was the inspiration/theme of your wedding? Me and James love all vintage items.

 

What is your first song and why? James chose our first song, it was Ed Sheeran – Perfect. He heard the song and he said the song reminds him of our love.

 

What would be your number one tip to other couples planning their wedding? Enjoy the buildup because the day its self is all over too quick.

Becky & Isaac, Albert Cottage Isle of Wight. https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2017/5/becky-isaac-albert-cottage-isle-of-wight

Becky & Isaac's wedding day.

 I started at Albert Cottage for the all important getting ready shots ( these really do help to tell the story of the day ) with a crazy bunch of girls!.

Then it was off to the church at St Mildred's in Whippingham which went very well until right in the middle of the ceremony a mobile phone started playing the Aliens tune........ Yep my phone...... I still say it was Queen Vic having a laugh just like the whole of the congregation did!.

Then it was back to Albert Cottage for a very relaxed afternoon in the sun before the party really got going in the evening.

 

First names-

Becky and Isaac

Age-

25 and 26

Wedding date-

8th April 2017St Mildred's church, Whippingham and Albert Cottage.

How we met-

On a night out in Chicago Rock in April 2009 (a few months before my 18th birthday!!). We spent the whole summer together and then Isaac went away to university in Swansea for 3 years. I travelled up there every other weekend and he came back to the island during the holidays and any other time he could.

How we got engaged-

On a weekend away in Cheltenham for Isaac's 21st birthday, a few weeks before he went away to work in France for 3 months over the summer. It was a complete surprise and he got down on one knee in our hotel room!

Venue-

We only looked at 2 other wedding venues and as soon as we looked round Albert Cottage we knew it was 'the one'. It ticked all the boxes and fitted perfectly with the style of wedding we wanted.

Inspiration for theme of wedding-

I love pastel colours and felt they fitted really well with the time of year and Albert Cottage (especially the green!). A lot of inspiration from Pinterest as well, I spent many evenings gathering ideas and ended up with hundreds of screenshots on my phone and various wedding related albums!

First dance song- Adele,

Make you feel my love. We didn't really have 'a song' before the wedding but we both agreed on this song and felt it was quite fitting, because without sounding cheesy, we would do anything for each other. For the three years that Isaac was in Wales at university we never gave up on each other and did whatever we could to see each other.

Number one tip for other couples planning their wedding-

Believe people when they tell you how quick the day goes, I never did until the day arrived and it went past in a flash! Enjoy every minute of it, from getting ready through to dancing the night away! And my advice for brides would be, supply flip flops for your guests- I did and not only were my own feet very grateful, it kept our guests dancing all night long!!

Ricky & Yaz wedding day https://www.wightphotography.com/blog/2017/5/ricky-yaz-wedding-day  

WIGH7819WIGH7819

Ricky & Yaz had a beautiful traditional wedding service in Sandown on the Isle of Wight at the stunning St Johns Church followed by the reception at the Cygnet Hotel.  After the service despite the bitter cold wind we went down to the pier and beach for a few pic's then it was party time

 

First names: Yazmin and Ricky

Ages: 22 (Yaz) and 21 (Ricky)

Wedding date: 25th February 2017

Venue: St. Johns Church, Sandown and then onto the Cygnet Hotel, Sandown.

How did you guys meet, tell me all? We first met working in the Merrie Garden, in Lake, but we really got to know each other after a night out. After that we basically spent every Friday night, for 3 months, just getting the know each other and also what we actually wanted in life. After this thing moved quite quickly, but we were both really happy and knew it was what we wanted.

How did you get engaged, is there a cool story?

We got engaged at the prince of wales pub in Cowes where I had booked a night in their hotel room, Yaz didn’t have a clue until I had gone to the bar to order dinner and came back and got down on one knee with the ring. Yaz was speechless and I don’t think she believed me at first. I had our bags packed and in the boot of the car ready for our night away but forgot the pill :/

We then had to go back home to get it and of course Yaz was excited to show off the ring to her mum and dad where we were living at the time.

By time we got back to the hotel Yaz was already looking at dresses, shoes, etc.

What made you choose your wedding venue, did you look at many? We didn’t look at many churches as I (Yaz) had always wanted and knew that one day I would get married there, as I have been living on the island for 15 years it held a lot of memories me and my family. For the reception we looked and enquired about quite a few different places across Sandown, but with a lot of our families being elderly and young children we thought that the Cygnet hotel would be best as it is so close to the church.

What was the inspiration/theme of your wedding? Because of the date of the wedding and it still technically winter, I have always wanted a winter wedding, we thought it only fitting to have a blue theme, also where we had, my dream come true, horse and carriage I wanted more of a Disney Cinderella style dress and color.

What is your first song and why?  All the way through the planning we were stuck between two songs for our first dance, these were Count on me by Bruno Mars and A Thousand Years by Christina Perri. In the end we went with A Thousand Years as the lyrics just meant so much to us both and we had always listened to it quite a lot, plus Yaz was quite obsessed with the Twilight Saga and this song was the main song for the final saga. Although we decided not to go with Count on me, we did however use this to sign our register too.

What would be your number one tip to other couples planning their wedding?  Hire a wedding planner!! Lol. No the main thing we would advise is get it all paid for ASAP and remember it’s not what you know it’s who you know.
