Llansantffraed Court Hotel Wedding

This post contains a choice of our favourite images from the wedding of Libby & Matt at Llansantffraed Court Hotel, near Abergavenny.  We met Matt at St. Mary’s Priory in Abergavenny before the ceremony.  Libby arrived on time with her dad and almost lost her veil to a sudden gust of wind, great catch by an Usher!!  The ceremony was great in the magnificent church.  A big thank you to Father Mark Soady who kindly allowed us to use the alter for some family portraits as the rain came down.  It was then a mad dash to Llansantffraed Court Hotel where we completed the Bridal portraits.  We used some indoor areas for the bridal portraits as the bad weather continued.  Libby and Matt were very brave and managed to get a few quick shots in the wonderful grounds at Llansantffraed Court Hotel.

Wedding photography taken at Court Colman Manor near Bridgend in South Wales.  This wedding, photographed at Court Colman Manor was in May.  It was a civil ceremony so everything was at the one venue.  It was great to come back to Court Colman in the spring as the last time we were here was in a foot of snow so the wedding photographs couldn’t be more different.  We were able to really explore the grounds and the Bride and Groom were keen to have some more bridal portraits after they had eaten to take advantage of the lovely evening light and skies.
