Walking back to the evening do, Emma & James had fun in the gardens for their group portraits. I aim to capture moments naturally, like this one.
Let me tell you about Emma and James’ wedding! It was one of those days that you leave with your cheeks hurting from smiling so much! Surrounded by their closest family and friends, they tied the knot at the stunning Bredenbury Court Barns, and honestly, it couldn’t have been more perfect.
Bredenbury Court Barns grounds are simply beautiful, and gives you the run of their very own 29-acre country estate. I always love capturing the details and venue photos!
From the moment you arrived, you could feel the relaxed vibe they had created. Everything about the day was them—beautiful but laid-back, where everyone just felt at home. And can we talk about the kids? They were absolutely living their best lives! With a games room set up to keep them entertained, they were running around with huge grins, soaking up all the fun. It added such a joyful energy to the day.
A Gorgeous Setting & Perfect Weather
Bredenbury has so many perfect backdrops, which is why its one of my favourite West Midlands wedding venues.
I was so happy to get booked here as it’s so local to me! When I saw it was a Summer wedding too, it made me even more excited!
The weather played along perfectly too with amazing blue skies, sunshine, and just the right amount of breeze to keep everyone comfortable. The garden is amazing, with picturesque views of the malvern hills in the distance.
It’s actually one of those venues that feels timeless and elegant but still really warm and inviting, in all seasons!
THE ORANGERY AT BREDENBURY
The ceremony happened in the orangery which is beautifully light and airy, perfect for my style of photography!
It’s full of charm and a beautiful atmosphere - with the natural light and gentle warmth. No wonder why its such a popular Venue in Hereford, just look how stunning it is.
James was excited to see Emma, and as she walked down the aisle, he had the biggest smile on his face. It was one of my favourite moments watching her walk down the aisle to him, she was so happy.
I was able to document the ceremony perfectly for them, in a natural and relaxing way. Capturing the laughter, the sweetest vow exchange, and their little boy being the ring bearer, which was the cutest!
As the weather was so nice, we then got to enjoy the outdoor spaces too. This meant I got to capture some lovely photos of Emma and James with their friends and family. I mean, natural light and lots of laughter, what more could you ask for?
Emma and her bridesmaids were having the best time, laughing together and having a few girly photos in their pretty coloured mint dresses. Whenever I get the chance - I always take some bride and groom portraits too, so we snapped a few before heading back in (wed go back out later for more!)
The speeches were filled with laughter and tears (the good kind!) and everyone enjoyed words spoken between the groom & Emmas father.
A romantic, elegant & fun wedding, in Herefordshire
As the day moved into the evening, thats where the fun started. The dance floor was full from the moment the music started! There’s something about seeing everyone, from toddlers to their grandparents, dancing their hearts out that just makes you smile. The energy was obviously infectious, and you could tell that Emma and James were having the absolute time of their lives! As were their friends and family.
But before that even started, we actually snuck off for a few more couple portraits - Bredenbury Court Barns has a lovely little lane, which we strolled to. Emma & James took some moments together to have a giggle and a dance. Followed by some posed photos by the brick doorway they loved!
A Day I Won't Forget
There are certain days in life that leave a lasting impression on our hearts, and Emma and James planned a day that was not only lovely but also filled with emotion.
I truly felt thankful to be a part of their beautiful wedding.
