Ruthin Castle ♥ Sian and Owen

The third of our three weddings in three days saw us back at Ruthin Castle in Denbighshire, North Wales for the wedding reception but not before we attended the ceremony which took place at the really beautiful church of St Marcella in the town of Denbigh itself.

Once again the weather behaved itself which everyone including ourselves, was extremely grateful for.

The church really is something special. We have been here before and so knew what to expect. I is in a lovely rural location and set on high ground with lovely views over the Vale of Clwyd. Inside, it is unusual in having twin  aisles.

As I say, the reception was at the lovely Ruthin Castle. Part of this building dates back to the 13th century. You only have to stand in the ruins and imagine the thousands of people who have trodden the same paths. It's an incredible experience and a wonderland place for a wedding reception.

A really lovely couple and it was a great pleasure to be with them for their special day and here are a few photos from the many hundreds we took today

Peckforton Castle ♥ Jane and Chris

Every wedding is something special. They are all different as every bride and groom (lets be honest, mainly the bride, as they do most of the work!) put their own personal stamp on it.. something that says "this is OUR wedding".

When the wedding is at the sumptuous Peckforton Castle in Tarporley, Cheshire you just KNOW you are in for something very special.

Jane and Chris' wedding had everything. A civil wedding in the Great Hall, a blessing in the chapel and decent weather! Wonderful opportunities for a photographer and we took advantage of them to the full and we produced some wonderful photographs.


Here are a small sample of the many hundreds Jane and Chris have received.

Ruthin Castle ♥ Nadia and Ste

Our second visit to Ruthin Castle inside of a week and our third wedding of the week (phew) but what a high note to end the week on.

The first thing I have to mention was Nadia's wedding dress. I have never seen a dress quite like this. It was so different that when I first saw it I was completely blown away. It was truly magnificent with incredibly ornate beading and the most amazing deep red trim to the body and forming part of the train.

The weather was glorious as it has been all week and add this to the mix of a great couple, fun, friendly friends and family and the wonderful setting of Ruthin Castle in Denbighshire then you have all the necessary ingredients for a terrific wedding (which this most certainly was).

As usual, I can show you a few of the photographs from the wedding.
