Michelle and Andy hold hands in the evening light outside Crowcombe Court, standing on the gravel path with the grand red-brick manor behind them. The warm glow and soft shadows highlight a peaceful newlywed moment in the golden hour.

Weddings in a heatwave are definitely memorable, and Michelle and Andy’s day at Crowcombe Court was no exception. It was an absolute scorcher, but honestly, the warmth of the day only added to the energy. From the moment I arrived, there was this real buzz in the air - pure excitement, happy nerves, and a lot of love. Crowcombe Court looked amazing in the sunshine, and it gave everyone the perfect excuse to enjoy the last of that late summer light well into the evening.

Michelle’s elegant wedding dress hangs from an ornate doorway inside Crowcombe Court, framed by classical architecture, floral decor, and soft natural light before the ceremony begins in the stately ceremony room. A quiet, beautiful moment of calm.

Michelle’s sapphire engagement ring rests delicately on a soft pink rose, nestled among creamy peach and blush flowers in her bouquet. The close-up captures the elegant setting and rich colour of the ring in a romantic and natural floral backdrop.

Pure Emotions During the Ceremony

I’ve seen my fair share of ceremonies, but this one really stood out. Michelle and Andy poured their hearts into every moment - you could hear it in their voices and see it in every glance. It was emotional in all the right ways, and I felt lucky to be there capturing something so honest and heartfelt.

Speeches That Had Everyone Feeling It

Later in the day, the speeches brought the room together in such a lovely way. There were belly laughs, tearful pauses, and those brilliant in-between bits where people lock eyes across the table because they just get it. These moments are gold to photograph - raw, real, and completely unforgettable.

First Dance Vibes and the Mr & Mrs Game

Their first dance felt personal and joyful, not overly rehearsed, just very them. And I’ve got to say, the Mr & Mrs game that followed was a total highlight. It brought so much fun to the room, with everyone laughing, cheering, and reacting in all the best ways, perfect for those candid reaction shots I love to catch.

A Beautiful Summer Evening at Crowcombe

Crowcombe Court really came into its own once the sun started dipping. Guests spilled out into the gardens, drinks in hand, just soaking up the golden light and warm breeze. I snuck away with Michelle and Andy for a few relaxed portraits, and the light was that soft, dreamy kind you cross your fingers for.

Soaking Up the Last of the Summer Sun

As the evening carried on, there was something about the light and the mood that just felt... peaceful. People slowed down, conversations deepened, and it felt like everyone was really soaking up the last of the summer sun together. It was the perfect way to round off a day that was full of energy but also full of heart.

Conclusion:

Michelle and Andy’s wedding at Crowcombe Court had everything - emotion, fun, and the kind of warmth that had nothing to do with the weather. From start to finish, it felt like one of those rare days where everyone was exactly where they were meant to be. I’m so grateful to have been there to capture it all.
