Wedding Photography New House Country Hotel Cardiff
Katy & Mike travelled from their home in Oxford for their lovely wedding in St Isan’s Church, Llanishen and The New House Country Hotel, Thornhill. Since the romantic proposal on Swyncombe Down in Oxfordshire Katy and her Mum, Sheila, had arranged the wedding contacting local suppliers to enhance the day. Such as the beautiful flowers from The Flower Lodge in Rhiwbina which had the added touch of sprigs of Rosemary in them! It was very calm at Katy’s parent’s house when we arrived, hair had been done and Katy was applying her own make up before getting in to her stunning Bridal gown from High Society in Cowbridge with the help of her Mum and 2 Bridesmaids. Two cars from Kennedy Classics transported the Bridal party to the church where we had gone ahead to photograph Mike with his family, his Best Man and Ushers (all of the Ushers were family members too!). It was at this point that we met the gorgeous Flower Girls and Page Boy. It was a misty, damp day but everyone was smiling and it didn’t stop the guests enjoying themselves. After the lovely ceremony there was an array of umbrellas and lots of photographs. We even managed a confetti shot under the litch gate. At the New House Country Hotel we photographed the families in the Wyndham suite where the reception was and took some fab shots of Katy and Mike in their Bridal Suite. Luckily it then had time to dry up outside so we went to the amazing Sequoia tree in the grounds – one of the tallest of its kind in Wales! We were lucky enough to be able to enjoy the delicious wedding breakfast with the guests before taking some more photographs of them during the speeches. The evening was started by the band, Undercover, who played their first dance and got people on the dance floor immediately with their excellent set. Katy & Mike are now enjoying their honeymoon in Sicily, lucky things!!

Here is a first look at some of our favourite images from Charlotte & Andrew’s wedding, the first wedding reception to be photographed from the present owners at Llanerch Vineyard! Charlotte & her parents and Bridesmaids got ready at the vineyard in the beautiful Cariad room and their theme for the day was very appropriately sage & ivory which was very befitting for such a countryside venue! Charlotte’s dress was from Timeless Elegance and was just that, she looked extremely elegant and the Bridesmaids who were all wearing sage coloured dresses really complimented her. The Groom and his Groomsmen, 2 young nephews and both the Dads wore tartan kilts so we were all glad that the temperature had dropped for the day!! The wedding had been two years in the planning since the proposal in Lindos, Greece and we were honoured to be asked to photograph the wedding as we have already photographed another member of the family’s wedding. The ceremony took place at St Isan’s Church in Llanishen where Charlotte arrived 15 minutes early in her beautiful Beauford hired from Perfect Day Wedding Cars along with the vintage bus that transported the bridesmaids and both Mum’s to and from the vineyard. We were able to photograph in so many areas at the reception venue, from the Woodland Pathway to walking through the vines in front of the farmhouse that is now the restaurant, shop and some bedrooms. The delicious food was provided by EJ Catering and the day went very smoothly thanks to the co-ordination of Emma Butler from Sylvie and Joan Creative Weddings and Events. The evening entertainment was provided by the really cool band The Somebodys who had everyone up dancing straight after the First Dance! The whole day was captured on video by Accesi.
