There is a definite increase in last minute bookings but Matthew and Andrew are one of the latest bookings we have taken as they only decided that they wanted a photographer a couple of weeks before the wedding. They realised that the Pavilion is such a stunning venue and they wanted to make sure they had some good photographs from their day. We have been challenged by most of our December weddings due to the lack of light and as this ceremony was at 5pm, it was already pitch black when coverage began at the Pavilion. The guys seemed very nervous but the lovely Mr Love was their registrar and he created a calm and warm atmosphere for the ceremony.
All the guests enjoyed an exclusive tour of the Pavilion as it was now closed while we took portraits of Matthew and Andrew in the fabulous Music Room. They were keen to have a laid back party so there were not any formal line ups. We tried to make sure that we had reportage shots of most of the people and some groups of their friends and family. Clare and I left as the caterers, Due South were putting out an amazing carvery that smelled delicious. We finished by taking an outside night shot of the Pavilion which looked very dramatic.
