West Wales wedding at the Cliff Hotel with Sian and Emyr

by

We had a colourful day at the Cliff Hotel last summer with this sporty pair: Sian who ran the Cardiff Half with Vince (well, not with exactly, she was much faster!) and Emyr of the Scarlets. A little bit of sport inevitably made its way into the day, but mostly it was smiles, romance, and… Read More

Aberystwyth Wedding Photography at Nanteos Mansion with Ffion and Leighton

by

When you get engaged up a freezing mountain in January, perhaps you immediately start picturing a wedding day of beautiful warm sunshine, and some warm and welcoming indoor spaces! The regal Music Room and the stunning gardens of Nanteos Mansion provided just that for Ffion and Leighton, and we were delighted to be asked to… Read More

Jeni and Duncan at the Cliff Hotel, Cardigan

by

We do like to be beside the seaside! One reason is clear from the two very different pictures below – the varying extremes of mood and atmosphere that being in a coastal wedding location can give you in the course of one day. Jeni and Duncan live in Cardiff (check out Jeni’s very cool business!)… Read More

Catrin and Peter at The Cliff Hotel

by

If you were the daughter of one of the most creative cake-makers in Wales, what would your wedding cake be like? I promise whatever you’re imaging right now is not it. 🙂 Catrin was one of our most gorgeous and constantly-smiley brides – you can see where her adorable little boy gets it from! And… Read More

Becky and Keith at Manorbier Castle

by

We were delighted to photograph Becky and Keith’s weekday wedding at Manorbier last Easter. We love Manorbier – just add the unbeatable atmosphere of the ceremony hall to the fact there’s no prettier place to site a marquee. The men were lucky enough to get the beautiful holiday cottage within the grounds for their preparations,… Read More

Becky and Simon’s Christmas Wedding at Woodhouse Barn

by

We really do love a Christmas wedding – not least because it reminds us of our own. 🙂 Also the cosiness, colours and warmth of a Christmas wedding are always so appealing – even if it’s a rainy day! Becky and the girls started out at a lovely B&B from where they could just walk… Read More

Classic Black and White Wedding Photography with Claire and Euros

by

I’m going to do something unusual today and blog a wedding almost entirely in black and white! The formal surroundings of The Old Library at Carmarthen registry office, followed by a cosy wood-panelled traditional pub, just seem to lend themselves to it. We often feel that black and white brings out expressions and emotions particularly… Read More

Lora and Garry at the Cliff Hotel and Spa

by

Lora and Garry’s wedding last September is still one of our favourites! They and their little girl are such a lovely family that we’ve loved staying in touch with. This is a wedding of beautiful details – I love the berries in the bouquets, the colourful cars, and the many moments of child cuteness! Plus it was… Read More

Rhianedd and Peter’s rainy summer wedding at Fonmon Castle

by

This was a lovely relaxed day. It started gloomy and under umbrellas but ended with a beautiful sunny evening which had everyone chilling out on the lawn. Look out for lovely bookish details to reflect the library setting for the reception, and a vigorous first dance which Rhianedd and Pete took every opportunity to rehearse!  … Read More

Angharad and Jim – summer in Charlie’s Field

by

Angharad chose us after we photographed her sister Teleri a few years ago getting married in the same chapel. Apart from that it was quite different, Teleri’s day being in autumn with storms constantly threatening. What you’ll see in this dazzling summer seaside wedding: stunning florals; beloved dogs who are VERY good at posing for the… Read More

Gwen & Trystan’s Tipi Wedding in the Preseli Mountains

by

One of our favourite weddings last year (what?! we don’t have favourites! 😉 ) was Trystan Llyr Griffiths and Gwen out in our beloved Preselis on a very foggy midsummer’s day. Gwen’s huge excited grin above was her fixed expression for the entire day – she was such a delight to photograph!! Trystan is of course completely comfortable… Read More

Rhiannon and Rhodri at The Cliff Hotel

by

Rhiannon and Rhodri got married at St Michael’s in Penbryn, a little whitewashed church beautiful in its simplicity; then we stopped at Mwnt beach and church for photos before going on to the Cliff Hotel – a dreamteam of locations really! Combine that with the outstanding singing from Rhiannon and her school girls choir, and meeting up… Read More

Michelle & Llyr at the Cliff Hotel

by

I’m finally starting to blog our 2016 weddings! Starting with this gorgeous winter affair with Michelle and Llyr. Although it looks like a beautiful sunny day in reality it was absolutely FREEZING! Michelle and Llyr did amazingly well braving the cold for all the lovely portraits we managed through the day. You just can’t let the… Read More

Amy and Hefin at Ffynone Mansion

by

Last autumn we were thrilled to photograph the very first wedding held at a gorgeous new venue, Ffynone Mansion in Boncath, north Pembrokeshire. A stunning Georgian house with a music room and library and the most amazing ceilings, set in manicured grounds looking out over the rolling Pembrokeshire countryside. This is a rather long blog post, because… Read More

Mel and James at St Dogmaels and The Cliff Hotel

by

Mel and James were married last summer at one of our favourite churches, St Thomas’s adjacent to St Dogmaels Abbey. The approach to the church is beautiful (made even more lovely in this case by the fact that Mel just had to walk through the village to get there, to the acclaim of most of… Read More

Llinos and Dylan’s coastal wedding

by

What could be better than panoramic sea views as a setting for your reception marquee? Perhaps the fact that this setting is your very own back garden! That’s how lucky Llinos and Dylan are – they just needed beautiful sunshine and a golden sunset to top off their happiest day, and they got it. 🙂 It was a pleasure… Read More

Susan and Gareth at Fforest Tipi

by

Siw and Gareth had an extremely chilled-out wedding at Cardigan Quayside, one of a unique collection of local wedding venues managed by the lovely people of Fforest. If you’re looking for something a little bit alternative you MUST check them out! Both Siw and Gareth (and their gorgeous daughter) got ready in Fforest’s Granary Lofts just across the… Read More

Lisa and Rhodri at Wolfscastle Country Hotel

by

Lisa and Rhodri had a typical autumn wedding – typical in that every type of weather made an appearance through the day! But as you’ll see the rain can’t wash away any smiles from this bright and colourful day. I particularly like the fuschia colour scheme followed through so consistently in all the little touches, and… Read More

Beth and Robin’s autumn wedding at Manorbier Castle

by

Beth and Robin got married in the Vaulted Chapel at Manorbier, one of our favourite Pembrokeshire locations. They both got ready at the Castlemead Hotel, so were able to just stroll down the road to the castle for the ceremony, and back up again for their marquee reception. Lovely moments to look out for: Beth’s… Read More
