Kelly & Martyn’s wedding at the absolutely stunning Minstrel Court, was an amazing day packed with love and laughter. I had been excitedly waiting for this wedding, I new how much planning and preparation had gone into making this day just perfect and it didn’t disappoint!

The weather started a little against us but arriving at Minstrel court it was clear that it didn’t matter the breathtaking view over the lake and the beautiful gardens just glistened with droplets of water and the covered lake pavilion meant that the outdoor ceremony would be able to go ahead even in the rain!

Amazingly it stopped just in time for Kelly and the bridal party to walk down the long tree lined driveway to meet an emotional groom. They had the sweetest service exchanging personal vows in-front of their three children, family and friends.

We captured some group shots before diving into the marquee where the most gorgeously decorated room welcomed us, every last detail had been thought about with so many personal touches capturing the personality of this wonderful couple and their family.

The big surprise came after the meal when the incredible singing waiters fell into the room and blew everyone away with there performance, they had the whole room out of their seats dancing and singing, the atmosphere was electric, the perfect way to get the party started!

Between all the fun I did manage to steal the couple away for a walk in the grounds, with beautiful backdrops wherever you turn its a photographers dream for those close intimate portraits and some quiet time to reflect on the day so far.

Just before leaving the couple had one more surprise, as we stepped out into the evening, the sky was lit up with with an incredible fireworks display, a perfect end to a wonderful day.
