Whilst most people were still nursing their hangovers, I was off already in 2011 at a New Year wedding at New Place in Shirrell Heath near Southampton, Hampshire - one of my favourite venues for wedding photography. I was doing the wedding photography for Leeanne and John. We were in the Bristol Room at New Place which is great for smaller wedding parties and has a huge attractive fireplace and paneled walls throughout. It also has some adjacent landscaped gardens and staircases – great for photos. We were assisted by the wedding coordinator called Eli Gray and she was very helpful to me throughout the day. She can be contacted on 01329 836 511.
The 1pm ceremony was complex to photograph at New Place as the room was full and the large bay windows are light facing – making for tricky conditions. There are also some very creaky floorboards in the vicinity I have to stand!!
After a few photos with the Classic Rolls Royce wedding car from Lawnswood Limousines: http://www.llcars.co.uk/ we all headed into the gardens for some family photos, with great bright light conditions for the time of year.
During the ceremony a fantastic Sinatra ‘Sound a Like’ called Paul Holgate provided some fantastic tunes and he played during meal and photo times too. His website is here: www.sosinatra.com 07702 526 692. I enjoyed his music and plan to list him on the links page of my website shortly too.
A great meal was provided by the staff of New Place. You can view their website here: http://www.devere.co.uk/our-locations/new-place.html A Devere Venue and a very popular one amongst local couples, for good reason.
The images will be available for viewing for Leeanne and John and their families very soon and a few are shown here.
