Well, what a week! We’ve had inches of snow and not one, but two white winter weddings at the Manor of Groves!
Last Friday we shot the Wedding of Lorraine & Edward at the lovely Manor of Groves Hotel in Essex. We started the day at home with Lorraine and the girls, then slid our way to St Jame’s Church in Thorley, then onto the Manor of Groves for their reception!
The snow was thick on the ground and I was grateful for my fingerless mittens (until Mark stole one because he said he couldn’t feel his fingers anymore!) but it didn’t hold anyone up and we took some absolutely beautiful shots in the day!
Lorraine looked fantastic in a long white dress and her daughter Chloe looked equally as lovely in her white bridesmaid dress and fluffy jacket. Edward looked dapper in his suit and as a family, they looked amazing! One of my favorite shots is below at the Manor of Groves under the pergola, which I think truly sums up the happiness of their day! I also love the one of Lorraine on her own and a fun confetti photograph taken at the lynch gate.

I think Lorraine would kill me if I’d added the one of her walking up to the church in her Ugg boots, but I think she was highly sensible and it added to the fun of the day!
We also photographed Jessica & Stuarts Wedding today, which was a lot of fun and again filled with snowy pictures, however we’ll post some pictures in the New year as it’s nearly Christmas and I still haven’t wrapped any presents…!
I think this will be our last post before Christmas, so we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and look forward to seeing you in the New Year!
Best wishes!
