Nikki & Tom at St Ive Church and Lanhydrock Hotel & Golf Club

Nikki and Tom’s beautiful wedding was one of those days that makes you happy to be a wedding photographer.  The day started at Nikki’s parents home with plenty of bubbly on hand, and the boys met up at the St Ive Church, with handy copies of ‘Farmers Weekly‘ to keep them occupied until Nikki arrived.  I should explain that they are young farmers!  A special mention must go to everyone who decorated the church the previous day – Nikki, the Mums, the friends and everyone else who helped.  It really did look amazing.

After the slightly quirky ceremony (vicar’s first wedding?!) I hopped in the Range Rover with Nikki & Tom for a quick detour en route to the reception.  Nikki wanted to include her beloved horse in the day and had arranged for him to be at Respryn Woods.  He was so well behaved – a quick attempt at eating Nikki’s bouquet was made and thwarted! – and Nikki couldn’t resist getting on for some photos.  Its rare that your bride wants to ride a beautiful white horse on her wedding day so thank you Nikki!

So we were running a little late by the time we reached Lanhydrock Hotel.  Tom made a beeline for his beloved tractor(!) which had been dropped off the day before.  Its probably the largest wedding ‘prop’ we’ve ever encountered 🙂 Some quick photos outside and a speedy trip to the lake in the golf buggies couldn’t be missed though.  The view at Lanhydrock is breathtaking and with weather like that we couldn’t ignore it.  Not hard to see why its one of our favourite Cornish venues.

The cake was suitably themed – Tom is a dairy farmer after all – and the speeches were genuinely hilarious.  Its not often that we’re laughing as much as the guests, but this time we really were!  More guests arrived for the evening, more food was piled up for the buffet, and Nikki eventually coaxed Tom onto the dancefloor for their first dance.  And when Nikki danced with her Dad afterwards there wasn’t a dry eye around.

It really was a fabulous day from start to finish, and we were happy bunnies when we drove away!  Nikki & Tom we wish you all the luck in the world for a wonderful future together x

Carol & Adrian at The Carbis Bay Hotel, St Ives

Carol chose a breezy blue and white theme for her wedding to Adrian at The Carbis Bay Hotel. At our first meeting they explained how much they wanted their whole wedding to be relaxed and laid-back, no posed photography and a sort of beach party for their family & friends. They certainly achieved it! We might be the hotel’s recommended wedding photographer (and we do photograph Carbis Bay a lot!) but we never tire of it. Beautiful blue skies on the day helped and Carbis Bay Beach was as stunning as ever. We love how much the sea tempts guests to run into it!

Emotions were running high for Carol during the ceremony as soon as she saw Adrian waiting for her, but happy tears are very much a part of weddings and perfectly ok.  Adrian just beamed from ear to ear all day!

There were beach games, digging in the sand & even swimming for some of the children.  The grown-ups all had a go at playing cricket, no idea how the score went but we reckon they were probably all winners!  Even the wedding cake joined in with the beach theme – the deckchair topper was fab 🙂  The speeches were emotional, the disco rocked (Carol’s boys saw to that with their impromptu dance off!) and the fireworks were a perfect ending to a perfect day.

It was such a pleasure to be part of Carol & Adrian’s special day. We wish them many more years of love & happiness 🙂

Bark Online? Just give us a call…

Just a little bit of info about ‘Bark’ online tendering.  We are getting on average 3 emails through each day from ‘Bark Team’ regarding potential wedding customers, and so are many other photographers.
What customers may not know is that it would cost us £10 to reply to each email, with no guarantee of getting the job or even getting a response from the customer.
Absolutely no disrespect to Bark.  For large companies and other industries this is probably ok, but as the majority of wedding suppliers are small businesses it makes more sense to contact them directly.  That way you are guaranteed to get a reply, and even better they can tell you all about their latest special offers!

Amy & Lee at St Nicholas & Faith Church Saltash

A very sunny & bright sky emerged in the middle of February for Amy & Lee’s special day.  Its always lovely to photograph a church wedding, St Nicholas & Faith Church in Saltash is one of our favourites,  and Amy looked so glam that Lee just couldn’t take his eyes off her when she glided up the aisle! The boys all looked rather smart too – and what a brilliant job they did in transforming the reception venue with oodles of sparkle.

Being a wedding photographer in Cornwall is always fun and we just don’t know what we’ll be photographing on the day. The brilliant cake topper (& Amy’s surprise Saltash Rugby Club themed garter) rather reflected Lee’s love of the game and was just perfect! Wishing you both (and all those beautiful daughters!) a very happy life together x

Phil & Vicky at The Carbis Bay Hotel

Another great day at the Carbis Bay Hotel – and even the weather behaved for us.  The hot pink theme warmed up a slightly grey day, but nothing was going to stop the wedding party from letting off steam on the beach after the ceremony!  Phil & Vicky – and the boys of course – we wish you all the best for a happy life together x
