Wedding Photography at Hengrave Hall | Bryony and Aaron | Gavin Conlan Suffolk Wedding Photography

Elegant, Enchanting and timeless are the words to describe the stunning location of Hengrave Hall and my word it lived up to it perfectly, you really should visit this place it's absolutely amazing.

On Saturday 21st December I had the pleasure of photographing my first wedding at Hengrave Hall, I love the Tudor style of architecture and it really excited me because of it's rich history (Queen Elizabeth once stayed there in 1578).  I love working at places which are full of history because I can use that to my advantage in the storytelling of my work, it really does give each photograph real impact.

The day was a real joy I had so much fun with everyone, they made me feel so welcome and it was an honour to capture their wedding photography.  For me it was the perfect way to end this year!!!

Thank you again and in the meantime I really hope you enjoy this small selection of photographs.

The Beautiful Wedding of Serene & Kurtis | Parklands Quendon Hall in Essex | Gavin Conlan Photographer | Essex Wedding Photography | www.gavinconlan.com

This past Saturday was Serene & Kurtis' Wedding at Quendon Hall in Essex.

It was such a beautiful day, in true British style the rain decided to make an appearance throughout the day but thankfully we were really lucky as it stayed dry for most of the afternoon and evening so the guests could enjoy the stunning grounds of Quendon Hall.

If you were one of the lucky ones to attend their wedding then you may of seen the images from their Paris Engagement session we photographed back in April - normally I would be showcasing the Engagement before the Wedding but i just couldn't wait to show you a selection of their Wedding images.  The Paris images will be posted within the next 3 weeks as I'm taking a well earned holiday from this Friday.

I've known Serene since approx 2008 when we did our first photo shoot together and we've kept in contact ever since and I got to know Kurtis during our couple of days in Paris enjoying the over priced Parisian alcohol.  I was so excited for their Wedding and I wasn't disappointed, I must of got a wee bit excited as I woke up Sunday morning feeling like I'd just ran a marathon my legs are now only beginning to feel normal again...

I really hope you love these images and they bring back some amazing memories from your day.

All the best - Gavin

The Wedding Celebration Party of Diana & Danny | Stock Brook Manor Golf Club in Essex | Gavin Conlan Photographer | Essex Wedding Photography | www.gavinconlan.com

The final installment of my amazing time with Diana & Danny showcases their brilliant Wedding Celebration Party held at Stock Brook Manor Golf Club in Stock, Essex.

Two weeks had passed since their beautiful Wedding in Florence at the fairytale location of Castello di Vincigliata (links to their Engagement and Wedding photographs) I was still buzzing from the whole Italian experience and I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate other than having another party.  Stock Brook Manor is a lovely venue the staff were perfect and couldn't do enough for you to make sure their night was perfect. 

I arrived early so we could capture a few portraits of the lovely bride and groom before their guests arrived and once the party was in full flow I just wanted to capture the fun and enjoyment everybody was having - the dance floor was rocking all night.

A special mention goes out to Kathy the lady behind Kathy's Creations (www.sweetiecake.co.uk) the cake design was outstanding and so damn creative (see slideshow below).

Anyway thank you so much for sticking with me and I hope you've enjoyed the whole Florence experience, your comments and links truly mean the world to me and keeps me striving to exceed my own expectations everytime.

All the best - Gavin
