A blast back to the warm and sunny days of summer for Danielle and Toms wedding day. Today we headed down to one of our favourite wedding venues. Thornton Manor Lakeside on the Wirral. They held the ceremony in the little lakeside apartments nestled in the woods, then over to the marque for the wedding breakfast and evening reception. We had a great day working and having a good laugh with all of their friends and guests :-) :-).
The amazingly quirky Kirklinton Hall was the setting for Rebecca and Simons wedding day. The Cumbrian weather even behaved itself and stayed dry and sunny all day. Their guests were treated to lovely BBQ in the afternoon with popcorn and ice cream on tap for afters. Sadly not many people (including the groom) managed to stay onboard the rodeo bull ride for very long.
Sunny Stockport for todays wedding. Lynn and Tim held their ceremony at Norbury Church in Hazel Grove before moving on to the amazing Mere Court Hotel for the wedding breakfast and reception.
A great friend of ours, Mike Cullerton, was Master of Ceremonies with his very own inimitable style of laughs, but all the time keeping an eye on proceedings - it is always great to meet up with him.
Another first for us today was Stuart Barkley who was there to provide a live painting of the wedding breakfast, he even invited the bride and groom to add a few little touches to the finished art work.
The evening reception went of with a bang (literally) with 2 enormous confetti cannons.
We went down to Nuthurst Grange in sunny Warwickshire for Gemma and Tom's wedding day.
The happy couple decided to hold the entire wedding day at the hotel, which was a fabulous idea as the hotel and grounds are amazing; lots of nice quiet spots for a photo shoot. The venue also looked fantastic when lit up for the evening celebrations.

We were almost on the doorstep for Courtney and Joe's Lake District wedding. The ceremony took place at Kirkby Stephen Parish Church, on a very hot and sunny day. Being a Cumbria wedding photographer it is not unusual to encounter all the seasons in one day!
The happy couple held their reception at the stunning Laura Ashley Belsfield Hotel on the shores of Windermere, where everyone was made to feel like movie stars. After the wedding breakfast we took the bride and groom down to the lake shore for some wonderful setting sun photos - even the swans made an appearance.. I hope that the photos manage to sum up just how special the day was.
