Amy and Craig tied the knot at Swynford Manor on 18th December 2022 (a decidedly chilly day with snow on the ground, but so much warmth and love inside). The Manor looked like a magical winter wonderland.
Here's the "confetti shot" taken in the entrance hall.
THE VENUE
Swynford Manor is an old favourite of ours.
Set in 7 acres of grounds with mature trees and open lawns, complete with honeymoon suite (great for bridal prep photos) and 12 lavish guest bedrooms. Everything and everyone is catered for. For those seeking a boutique chic style wedding, in the country, Swynford Manor is a perfect choice.
The Study is the perfect setting for civil ceremonies with space for up to 100 guests. Alternatively the Garden Room has room for up to 150 guests, ideal for larger ceremonies or wedding receptions.
Because of the inclement weather all the photos had to take place indoors BUT we did manage to get a drone shot of the couple before the snow/sleet/rain closed in!

AFTER THE CEREMONY
Welcome Drinks followed by some formal group photos.
And some not so formal.
We couldn't take a drone photo of everybody outside so we used the Entrance Hall. Everyone is in this shot.
The couple are announced into the wedding breakfast.
Great to work with Toastmaster Richard. Leading the couple into the wedding breakfast.

SPEECHES
Speeches with a presentation. Very professional! Groom looks a little nervous?
Cake cutting followed by first dance. Confetti cannons at the ready. Snowing inside as well as outside.
With 2 photographers you get 2 angles!
With the aid of some willing souls and some umbrellas we still managed to get a sparkler shot even though it was raining.
We hope our pictures have helped inspire you.
