As a wedding photographer, every love story holds its own unique charm, but Emma and Nick's wedding day at Stonehouse Court Hotel in July 2023 was truly something special. From the intimate moments during bridal prep to the lively evening party, it was a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
The morning started with excitement as we joined Emma and her bridesmaids for bridal prep. Laughter echoed through the room as hair and makeup artists worked their magic, and the air buzzed with anticipation. Emma radiated joy and elegance, her smile lighting up the room as she prepared to marry the love of her life, Nick.
The wedding ceremony took place at the picturesque St Cyr's Church, setting the stage for a truly beautiful union. Despite the looming threat of rain, the weather held off, allowing the couple to exchange vows surrounded by the stunning backdrop of the church. The love shared between Emma and Nick was palpable, filling the air with warmth and emotion.
After the ceremony, we seized the opportunity to capture some unforgettable moments by the canal. The serene waters provided the perfect backdrop for romantic bridal portraits, with Emma and Nick basking in the glow of newlywed bliss. As the sun began to set, we returned indoors to continue the celebrations at Stonehouse Court Hotel.
The reception kicked off with heartfelt speeches that left not a dry eye in the room. The best man, Gav, regaled guests with hilarious anecdotes, while Nick and Emma's father, Phil, shared touching words of love and wisdom. It was a testament to the strong bonds of friendship and family that surrounded the couple on their special day.
