Lemon Themed Wedding For Elliot & Chloe

I do love my job as a Rossendale wedding photographer I get to meet so many lovely couples and capture their days in my natural photography style. Elliot and Chloe held their wedding at Sykeside Hotel in Haslingden on a sunny day in May and we had a lovely day with all their family and friends.

They chose to have a lemon coloured theme wedding and it really was colour popping and totally gorgeous!! Elliot and Chloe have been together from school and were married in a intimate ceremony in front of all their family and friends at Burnley registry office which is near to Towneley Park before heading to Sykeside Hotel for their wedding reception. Elliot and Chloe arrived in style in a gorgeous wedding car just before the heavens opened in what was a very brief but heavy downpour!! Nothing was going to put a downer on this pairs day, and whilst the shower continued, I took lots of natural wedding shots of all their guests enjoying the drinks reception, laughing and joking!! Elliot and Chloe got engaged on Valentines Day last year, Elliot popped the question by going down on one knee as Chloe opened her card!!

On the morning of the wedding, I met up with Chloe and her bridesmaids who were getting ready at the hotel with her. The morning was really calm and relaxed and I captured some key getting ready moments as well as the dress, shoes and flowers. Chloe's bouquet was stunning, made almost entirely of lemon roses and tulips with some foliage added for extra texture, it was just beautiful, take a look!! xx

After the ceremony all the guests headed to the venue for the drinks reception and formal photographs. The Sykeside Hotel has a lovely little lawn at the front which is perfect for group formals, and the weather was kind all day so formals and portraits were taken outside in the warm sunshine!! Once all the formalities were completed I whisked the newlyweds away for a quick portrait session before their wedding breakfast. Portraits are one of my favourites times on a wedding day, it means I can get creative and capture treasured memories, but more importantly, it gives the couple chance to have a catch up and just saviour being married without any guests around. Elliot and Chloe totally rocked their session and we had a great time.

Elliot and Chloe are really family orientated and had spent many hours making personalised gift boxes for all the bridal party, they asked me to capture reactions to the boxes being opened after the wedding breakfast and of course I was more than happy to do this. I love seeing people opening presents, especially at a wedding and it made for some lovely memories!!

Elliot and Chloe then partied the night away before heading on honeymoon to Turkey the following morning, I had a fabulous time at the wedding and I'm so pleased that they asked me to be their Rossendale wedding photographer!! I've selected a number of my favourite images which tell the story of the day, take a look below.
