Gloucestershire Wedding Photographer - Dumbleton Hall

Adam & Julie had their Gloucestershire Wedding at Dumbleton Hall in the Christmas holiday between Santa's visit & the New Years celebrations.   Speaking with the venue it's in fact a really popular week to get married as they had five consecutive weddings booked in that week!

Adam & Julie arranged their wedding with fairly short notice (by some couples standards)...although it was probably best to move quickly once Adam proposed as that part of their relationship had taken some time to get around to!  The wedding day all came together really well, albeit that Julie's request for snow & sheep in the grounds of Dumbleton Hall didn't materialise :-(  Still, you can't have everything, after all it was an exceptionally mild December instead........handy for photos outside right?

So, here's a few photos from the wedding day with many more on my Facebook page.





So which bouquet is biggest - the biggest one is the bride bouquet right?



Wedding necklace with real bling.  Yep real diamonds, but alas not Julie's own, in fact rented for the occasion.





The much deliberate 'flower in the brides hair'.  Should it even go in her hair, does it look right, how far up should it go, is that the right angle, what about the clip.....can you see the clip!?   I could go on :-)



Yep the flower in your hair looks great.



All cool before the brides entrance.....



.....but a little biting of the bottom lip just to show a few nerves!







I'm not a fan of taking fake 'signing of the register' photos....preferring to shoot the real thing.  It's nearly always expected though and on this occasion it does look nice.....compared to many other occasions when we're squeezed into the back room of a church, with a notice board and fire extinguisher in the background for real wow factor!







Reception drinks were held in the lobby at Dumbleton Hall.











Inside at Dumbteton Hall set for the wedding breakfast.


Wedding details with a christmas theme.  Frosted baubles, candles & sparkly diamonds.   











What's going on....I hear you ask?  This is drinking games to play during the speeches.  Select a chosen word (say Love, Today, Brides name, Grooms name, etc), write it on a post-it note and stick it to a guests forehead. Then during the speeches when that word is said you need to drink one finger - simple.  Hopefully by the time it comes around to the best mans speech, guests will be properly drunk and laugh at just about anything. 







Props were produce during the best mans speech.

Wedding albums - Dumbleton Hall

Simon & Liz recently collected there beautiful Matted Wedding Album, so before it left me forever I took a few photos to blog.  It was a unique wedding in that it snowed 'heavily' and with a black tie wedding theme made for stunning pictures with Dumbleton Hall providing the perfect backdrop

 For anyone considering a winter wedding you can see the full blog post and a slideshow here.  



A 40 page wedding album....compared to my 30 page sample album is certainly the daddy!









A blanket of snow and 'warm' setting sun...........not your typical British wedding.





Liz also had parent books to accompany her main wedding album.

Winter wedding slideshow Dumbleton Hall, Worcestershire


I recently posted some photos from the winter wedding of Simon and Elizabeth at Dumbleton Hall and have decided it really must have a slideshow to accompany it.

So with no further ado, please enjoy the beautiful wedding photos from their Christmas winter wedding.

Winter wedding photos Dumbleton Hall, Worcestershire


Simon and Elizabeth - 19th Dec 2010 - Dumbleton Hall

I've never shot a totally white winter wedding, maybe a flutter of snow, but this wedding was something all together more fairy tale.  Simon and Elizabeth are a lovely couple, very easy to photograph and truly amazing at hanging around in the snow for photos despite sub zero temperatures.  

The whole wedding was held at Dumbleton Hall in Worcestershire.  This did make it a little easier as at least there wasn't any driving between churches and reception venues.....phew!

I had to pop up a couple of teasers prior to Christmas (see this earlier Dumbleton Hall post), but here now we finally have a fuller collection (and yeah....it's probably too many but it's been hard to choose, so I just included LOADS!)



The sheep at Dumbleton Hall definitely in need of those thick wooly coats!



I'm not sure who this is doing Liz's wedding Make-up but t looked great.  Drop a comment at the bottom of the page if you know.






Liz had lots of bridesmaids - I think five in total.  All the girls had black bridesmaid dresses which looked great for the black tie wedding and perfect set against the snowfall.



Don't ask???



Two ushers, three pints?  Ummm?



Simon and his Best Man.  I must say, looking 'quite' serious.



Sometimes photos are just given to me as a gift.  What better way to show the super veil Liz had to accompany her wedding dress.
