Louise and Vince's Wedding at Halswell House in Somerset

Whilst most people were having a chilled out time between Christmas and New Year, we were up at Halswell House in Somerset to photograph Louise and Vince's wedding.

We couple booked almost a year ago, and we met with them in August whilst Vince was in Cornwall competitive fishing. It was obvious that the couple knew what they wanted, but were also incredibly easy going, and we knew that their wedding day was going to be one to enjoy.

After staying locally overnight we were up bright and early for an all you can eat breakfast, breaking our healthy eating pledge! Mike headed off to Louise's parents house where she was getting ready and Chris went off to a local pub to meet with Vince where he, and his groomsmen were having breakfast.

We both had a really nice morning with the couple and Louise did her best to consume a bottle of Champagne! After her emotional arrival at the Church, the service was over in a flash and a memorable moment for us was when Louise turned around after the vows had been said with a look of amazement at the amount of guests in the church!

We all then headed off to the nearby stunning Halswell House for the couples reception. We spent the afternoon dodging showers in between photographing the couple and a few group shots.

Despite the fact it was winter and the tree's were bare and grass was muddy, the House looked amazing, and just before the couple first dance we took a few images outside when it was all lit up, with a reflection in the pond.

Louise and Vince were kind enough to send us a text the very next day saying: "Just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and Mike. You were both amazing and everyone commented about you and how well you fitted into the day with all of our friends and family! So glad we chose you to photograph our wedding. We cannot wait to see the pics!!

We'd like to say a massive thank you to the couple and their friends and family for making us feel so welcome and wish them all the very best for their future together.
