Gemma and Kristian at Rhinefield House Hotel in the New Forest


Today we photographed the wedding of Gemma and Kristian at Rhinefield House. Another stunning wedding, and lovely couple.

Today we photographed the wedding of Gemma and Kristian at Rhinefield House. Another stunning wedding, and lovely couple.

We returned to Rhinefield for our first spring wedding at this lovely and prestigious venue in the New Forest. Having recently shot Katie and Lee's wedding there in December, and Gemma and Kristian's pre-wedding shoot earlier in the month the venue is like a home to us, and we know it well - although constantly finding new places to photograph and new looks for the images. With lots of time, and a couple that valued the photography we were able to shoot lots of images both before and after the ceremony before leaving shortly after the speeches. We were well looked after by Lee, the best man, as well as Gemma and Kristian and all of the staff - which of course makes it all the easier to focus on creating great photographs.

Here are some images from the day.....


Gemma puts on some perfume before changing into her wedding dress.




The exchange of rings during the service




Gemma looking simply stunning




This is one of my favourite areas of the gardens, and I know Gemma and Kristian love it as well.




The view across one of the ornamental lakes to the blue iron gates. Looking for the reflection which works better with them in wedding attire than the pre-wedding shoot image




A rare blog post of the cake cutting - but I'm just loving the soft window light, and the beautiful moment.




The guests all wanted a shot as well, so I captured them all. Including Lee, best man, who seemed to think I made a better subject.




Gemma takes a look at the picture board placed at the rear of the great hall during the wedding breakfast. I just love the detail on her wedding dress




Kristian gets a top up having run out of champagne at the end of his speech, and about to make a toast.




We are back at Rhinefield on Sunday for another pre-wedding shoot in preparation for a late May wedding at the venue, and I'm looking forward to returning so quickly. More on the blog on Sunday night as we will have two pre-wedding shoots to post.
