A spring Crow Hill Cottages Wedding.

We had photographed Carolynne’s sister’s wedding last year at the Saddleworth Hotel (well, her post-wedding party as her real wedding took place on foreign shores.) Now was the time for some Crow Hill Cottages wedding photography, it’s always very complimentary to shoot a friend’s or sibling’s wedding :)

St. Bartholomew’s church wedding ceremony

Following on from Carolynne and Gary’s eShoot at Dovestones a few weeks ago, I’m thrilled to now blog their fabulous wedding which took place at St Bartholomew’s church followed by their wedding reception at Crow Hill Cottages in Marsden, West Yorkshire. St Bartholomew’s church is stunning, it has the scale and feel of a Harry Potter film set… couple that with a long sweeping barn owl ring delivery which simply finished the magical effect off to perfection.

A West Yorkshire idyll

Crow Hill Cottages are a little oasis you’d never imagine could exist hidden in the tiny village of Marsden. A large Victorian house with a grand yet cosy country feel once inside. Gorgeous gardens and woods surround this magnificent wedding venue, with an amazing marquee nestling in the woods, complete with separate bar and lounge chill out area. This is now one of our fave wedding venues :)

A twitchers’ wedding theme

The theme of Carolynne and Gary’s wedding was birds mixed with dancing. Gary’s a keen twitcher and Carolynne’s loves dancing. They’re a great fun loving couple which obviously shows in their wedding photos, for both their engagement shoot and the wedding day, they had a spark which became infectious and made it all the more fun to work with them.

Gorgeous late evening sunshine :)

Following their wedding breakfast (where it conveniently threw it down) the sun made a magical appearance with the most amazing light for a few extra photos in the early evening. This was the icing on cake for a stunning day and couldn’t have been more appropriate for such a great little family. A wonderful Crow Hill Cottages wedding, congratulations to Carolynne & Gary :)
