The Vermont - Laura and Stephen
It was great to spend a day back in May with the lovely Laura and Stephen, who tied the knot in the Cathedral Church of St Nicholas in the heart of Newcastle's busy city centre. Their stunning ceremony was followed by a luxurious and elegant wedding reception at one of our favourite wedding venues in Newcastle, The Vermont Hotel.
Here are a few of our favourite images from their day.
Tyneside Cinema - Philippa and Oliver
The Tyneside Cinema is a not-your-average, wow-your-guests kind of wedding venue. Situated in the heart of the city of Newcastle, the Tyneside Cinema really is a Cinema, but they just happen to have a licence for wedding ceremonies too. When Philippa and Oliver got in touch to ask us to shoot their wedding, we were delighted and only too happy to oblige. They chose some seriously cools venues for their wedding day. Getting ready in the Malmaison Hotel in Newcastle, and after the ceremony going on to the Baltic with its stunning night time views of the river Tyne and the Millenium Bridge.
It was fantastic to be a part of this fab wedding day.
The South Causey Old Barn - Natalie and Daniel
South Causey Inn, being so close to us in Stanley is one venue that we visit frequently, however Natalie and Daniel's wedding was a first for us. The brand new 'Old barn', South Causey Inn's newley refurbished wedding venue, with it's wonderful decor and attention to detail was a treat to photograph within.
Natalie and Daniel were married just before halloween. The mid autumn season brought with it that stunning low sun that we love so much, and the drawn in nights presented us with a stunning pink/purple sunset.
The Vermont Hotel - Kimberley and Alex
Nigel and I love a good winter wedding. The dark nights and the wet weather offer us a host of opportunities to be creative and really force us to think outside the box. Married last November, Kimberley and Alex's big day was one of those weddings.
After getting ready at home, they were married in the beautiful Church of St Helen's in Low Fell, Gateshead heading over to the chic 1930's art deco inspired Vermont Hotel. It's city centre location, elegance and style, and it incredible views over the river Tyne make it one of our favourite venues.
Kimberley and Alex met through their shared love of Classic American cars and in particular because of the 1965 Cadillac that Alex and Kimberley's brother restored together. It was naturally the only choice for their transport for the day and the perfect scene for a romantic picture of the couple together at the end of the day.
