Winter Wedding Photography Ideas - Best of 2018

Winter weddings are becoming more and more popular!  Aside from Christmas, New Year and the odd birthday there isn’t a lot going on in Winter, there are lots of places that offer special prices because Winter isn’t the ‘typical’ wedding season.  Getting married at this time of year can be super magical and it’s really easy to dress a winter wedding with baubles, glitter and sparkly decorations or festive trees!

This year two of my favourites were Dean and Yanitsa’s wedding at Court Coleman and Christina and Richard’s big day at Fairy Hill. 

Yani and Dean had an awesome winter wedding at Court Coleman look at that dress !

It was a perfect winter wedding with all the details perfectly planned. Those deep red flowers and Yani’s wedding dress were both favourites of Becky and mine.

Dean and Yanitsa celebrated with family and friends from near and far!  With lots of amazing traditions from both cultures it was wicked to see something different.  Court Coleman has lovely grounds and I got some great shots of the pair in-between all the fun!  Yanitsa was so brave and didn’t complain of the cold once, even though it was cold AF.

Christina and Richard tied the knot at Fairy Hill in Swansea.  The weather was so mild for December; the happy couple had planned everything down to the tiniest detail.  There was an amazing botanical wreath, I’m excited to have had a couple of weddings at Fairy Hill this year and I have some booked already for 2019.  It’s definitely a really cool place to get hitched!

I love Fairy Hill especially after our first weddings there this year. I also loved Christina’s dress with the veil makes some awesome photos

I love a xmas wedding it’s awesome to mix in all that festive spirit into the big day

We were lucky with the weather for this winter wedding at Fairy Hill in Swansea it didn’t rain

Fairy Hill offer places to stay close to the venue and it was a really relaxing place for the bridal party to get ready, a very proud father with the the bride..

Although it was really 2017, another awesome Winter wedding was Ben and Jess’s day at Trevenna Barns in Cornwall! Ben started off the day with a game of rugby! They were so up for a party and having a good time, they embraced the Christmas festivities and named their tables after Christmas films. It was really cool!

 If you’re recently engaged (or not) and thinking of setting a date in Winter give me a shout!

Plenty of room for your morning game of football before the wedding, of course. Groom mid scissor kick. Legend!

The rooms at Trevenna are cosy and a great place to get ready look at this Bridal prep photo I love that mirror.

I just love the country side vibes everywhere and Jess’s dress !

Trevenna also has amazing grounds for all shots with the bridesmaids and family

Winter Weddings have really nice golden light here in the UK as long as the weather is clear.

I love this group photo of the grooms party. Look at that face so happy !

Everyone got amongst it in the night party so colourful and energetic I love it-
