Thursday 18th June 2015 was the day of Victoria and Peter's tied the knot, their wedding was at the beautiful 16th Century timber barn - The Barn Brasserie in Great Tey, Essex.  This was the first time I photographed a wedding at The Barn Brasserie and I must say it was a real joy, the staff were amazing and it's a beautiful venue with great photo opportunities, the interior of The Barn is simply stunning....

"A romantic wedding venue in a luxurious country setting… flawless service where nothing is too much trouble… delicious fine canapés greet your guests and elegant grounds offer picture perfect moments" - I couldn't agree more!!

Wedding Photography at Parklands Quendon Hall | Victoria and James | gavin conlan photography Ltd - Essex Wedding Photographer

Last Friday (12th June 2015) I had the absolute pleasure of photographing the wedding of Victoria and James at Parklands Quendon Hall.  Quendon Hall is a beautiful 17th century mansion house and is set in idyllic rolling parkland and certainly adds that WOW factor to your wedding day. 

The day started with both Victoria and James getting ready at Parklands, Victoria is was in the stunning bridal suite and James was getting ready in one of their cottages, they held their ceremony in the grand Banqueting Hall, drinks reception in the gorgeous grounds and their wedding breakfast and reception in the silk-lined pavilion.

They exclusively showcased their engagement session to their family and friends at the start of the wedding breakfast, it was great seeing my work on the screens.  Back in April we spent the day in Bournemouth photographing their e:session - it was a full on day, working in what seemed like gale force winds to me lol...  

Their engagement session is now live please click on the link below to check it out.

Wedding Photography at The SPA Hotel + High Rocks | Samantha and Lee | gavin conlan photography Ltd Kent Wedding Photographer

Last Saturday (16th May 2015) I had the absolute joy of photographing the wedding of Samantha and Lee at High Rocks in Tunbridge Wells.  If you've never visited High Rocks then I suggest you should, you can arrive in style via the Steam Railway (Spa Valley Railway) and High Rocks has its own station in the grounds. 

"The magnificent High Rocks, from which we acquire our name, are steeped in history dating back millions of years. Acres of breathtaking sandstone rocks interlinked with eleven bridges, provide a scenic walk in a tranquil woodland setting. Once a stone age camp, now a National Monument these impressive rocks, which belong to The High Rocks complex, have always been a constant source of wonder".

Both Samantha and Lee got ready at The SPA Hotel a 4 star luxurious 18th century house hotel set in 14 acres of picturesque grounds on the edge of Royal Tunbridge Wells, The Spa is a family run Hotel offering 70 well appointed and individually styled bedrooms. 

Leading up to their wedding I asked Samantha and Lee a handful of questions about how they first met and their particular wedding theme and details, here's their answers;

1. What is the theme and colours of your wedding?

Pink and white

2. How did you come up with your theme?

We have an 8 month old little girl so pink seemed the most appropriate colour

3. Please list the name and website of the wedding pros you’ve hired:

Wedding Venue(s)  - High Rocks in Tunbridge Wells

Photographer - Gavin Conlan (gavin conlan photography Ltd)

Video - Matthew Crisp

Entertainment (DJ) – Bob Dyer

Florist - Jo Wilkinson

Wedding Dress Designer - Blackburn Bridal Boutique, Blackheath

Bridal Hair Stylist -  Kamuran Enver

Bridal Make Up Artist –  Tiffany Humphreys

Wedding Cake - Marks and Spencers

Bridal Shoes -  River Island

Wedding Planner -  Maggie

4. How did the two of you meet?

We met through a mutual friend (the best man) when I was about 18 and Lee was 21. After being friends for a little while our best man decided enough was enough and done a bit of match making.

5. How long did you spend planning your wedding and have you any budget advice?

9 weeks. We have been engaged for 7 years due to IVF financial commitments and decided due to my Grandad not being very well that if we left it much longer then we may not have the important people there with us.

6. What are you most looking forward to on your wedding day?

I'm most looking forward to marrying my best friend and my soul mate and completing my little family.

7. Any other details I should know about ?

Lee and I have been through the worst times together; years of disappointment in failed IVFs and the absolute worst losing our little boy (Frank Aubrey Tilly) at full term after 4 hours together as a family but we have gone through it all together and this has only made us stronger. We now have our beautiful daughter, Summer-Rose Frankie Tilly, and she has completed us both. After 6 years of failed IVF attempts, my Grandad supported us financially to see "The God of IVF" in London and because of this we had Frank and Summer-Rose. Sadly my Grandad who we called "Grumps" passed away this weekend just gone.

Whilst I'm editing their wedding I wanted to share a selection of my personal favourites with you to enjoy, feel free to use these images on your social media profiles (as long as you do not remove my watermark) and feel to leave Samantha and Lee a lovely comment below!!
