February Cotswolds Wedding
Laura + Charles
Weddings as we know happen all year round. Though some months have many more weddings than others. January is, well at least from my perspective, the quietest moth for weddings. Followed closely by February. I’m hoping this blog post will question why there are less weddings this time of year given the joy and happiness in this February Cotswolds Wedding. Obviously reasons for the summer are obvious, though this here is to give you a little winter wedding inspiration.
As a Cotswolds Wedding Photographer I was delighted when Laura + Charles asked me to photograph their wedding at he fabulous Cripps Barn located just outside Cirencester. I hope you enjoy these images just as much as I enjoyed making them.
Mid Cotswolds Bridal Preparations
I get asked sometimes if I get bored just going to wedding after wedding after wedding. The truth is, every wedding is so so different. The people are different, the light is different, the atmosphere, the energy. I could go on and on about how different they are. Using the bridal preparations as an example. Sometimes I just arrive and there are 3-4 people (including the bride) just hanging out and taking it slow. Sometimes I arrive and there are 12 bridesmaids, 6 hair and make up, 6 close family family members all crammed into a hotel room.
Lauras bridal preparations where far from the latter with a little more than 3-4 people hanging out. Laura got ready for her wedding in a really nice cottage not to far from the wedding venue. The mother of the bride and Lauras bridesmaids all present and the morning was really calm and relaxing. The cottage had low ceilings and small windows, this made most of the rooms look a little dark. Though it also created the most beautiful light when near the windows. It was a really nice, calm and relaxed start to an incredible wedding.
