Kym & James held their beautiful wedding at Weetwood Hall in Leeds, they were married on bonfire night and ended the day spectacularly with sparkler fun in the gardens. It was a super cold winter wedding but we still managed to do all the family group wedding photographs in the grounds of the Pretty West Yorkshire Wedding venue. I arrived nice and early and was greeted in reception by Kym who was almost ready when i got there!! she was nice and organised and the morning ran smoothly with no glitches.

I love it when things are running on time and i have chance to take some bridal portraits in natural window light, We managed to get some beautiful ones, the day is often over so quickly that finding 5 minutes to do it any other time during the wedding day is often not possible.

I headed down to the bar to meet James and his best man, we went out into the grounds to grab some photos of them both before the wedding ceremony began.

Kym was walked down the aisle by her very proud father, it was quite an emotional entrance as he came in and saw her for the first time. They were married in one of the many rooms at the hotel. The winter sun was blazing through the window as they said their vows in front of their friends and family.

As it was a November wedding we went straight outside and onto the group photographs whilst we still had good light. We started with small family group shots then some of the bridal party. It was so so cold, thankfully the very attentive staff at the hotel brought Kym a cup of tea out to keep her warm!!

We opted for walking photos to help warm them up, Wedding photography at Weetewood Hall Hotel is made nice and easy by the grounds and the long sweeping driveway is perfect for shelter and is great when the grass is wet and soggy.

We headed inside for the wedding breakfast, first of all the tradition of the speeches where Kym and James shared some fabulous news with their friends and family and Kyms Dad and James’ best man delivered some great speeches.

We had a little time between the meal ending and the wedding evening reception starting so we took the opportunity to get some nice evening shots in and around the grounds.

The evening ended with sparkler wedding photos on the patio. Such a fun way to end their wedding photography gallery.

I had such a fantastic day photographing their special day, please feel free to share and comment on this blog below.
