On the 5th October 2019, I had the pleasure to photograph the lovely wedding of Rachel and Jake at The Parish Church of Saint Mary Roch, in Haverfordwest. Beautiful church that was made all the more special as she was married by her uncle. Just as well, as the bride was nearly an hour late. He was very understanding, though. So was the guests. They half expected it to happen.
The harpist played some lovely music during the arrival of the bride and during the ceremony. The church was full of friends and family, and you could tell from the onset this wedding was going to be a blast of fun and laughter all the way.
Following the ceremony, we stopped off at the beach for some photographs before heading to the reception venue. This pebble beach made for some lovely photo opportunities. The sky was cloudy, giving as a more dramatic look to the images.
We then headed off to the 5-star Crug Glas, Country House Haverfordwest. Just off the A487 between St Davids and Fishguard. Crug Glas is a country house and restaurant in Pembrokeshire. Not far from the historic city of St Davids. https://www.crug-glas.co.uk
Food was stunning and plenty of it. I know because the lovely couple arranged for me to have a meal at the bar.
Most of the images were in a candid style with some group shots and private moments of the couple. The couple just had a blast all day.
The evening disco and band rounded the wedding party off well into the nigh-time, possibly early hours of the morning. I honestly lost all track of time.
The bride and groom also give me a lovely surprise gift of an engraved whiskey flask. Thank you both. It was my pleasure to photograph such a great couple.
This wedding was chosen by South Wales Wedding Magazine to be featured in May 2020 edition.
