Olivia and Chandler were married on a scorching hot August day at the beautiful Pendrell Hall. With sunshine and laughter all day long, this was a fantastic occasion to capture!

After a very relaxed morning getting ready, the couple opted for an outdoor ceremony, with Olivia’s dad absolutely beaming as he escorted her down the aisle to Chandler. Framed by stunning colourful floral arches, Chandler and Olivia exchanged vows and rings at the lovely vintage bandstand set within Pendrell Hall’s extensive gardens. Confetti was swiftly followed by some very welcome drinks and ice lollies to cool everyone down a bit!

The bright and spacious Ballroom was beautifully decorated (and blessedly cool!) for the couple’s wedding breakfast, with gorgeously vibrant floral centrepieces and forest green sashes that perfectly complemented the bridal party’s outfits. A couple of fantastic speeches from bridesmaid Freya and father of the bride Richard had everyone laughing before they dug into dinner.

One request from Olivia in our pre-wedding chat was some photos of her beating Chander at mini-golf, so after dinner we headed out to enjoy a round (I’m still not sure who won though!). The light had softened into a golden glow during the afternoon, perfect for some portraits of the couple in the garden before evening guests arrived.

Olivia loves to dance and had assured me the dancefloor would be packed all evening, and I was not disappointed! After a beautifully choreographed first dance the couple were joined by some very enthusiastic guests, with the energy levels staying high as the party went on. Big thankyou to best person Wyatt for helping me with lighting for a couple of late-night couple photos out in the gardens to round off the evening, and to Isabelle for being fabulous company as she captured memories on video for Chandler and Olivia.
