A BEAUTIFUL WINTER WEDDING IN TROTTON, WEST SUSSEX – ABBI AND NICK
IF YOU’RE PLANNING A SOUTHDOWNS MANOR WEDDING, YOU’LL LOVE THIS WEDDING FOR INSPIRATION!
When Abbi and Nick first got in touch with me about their wedding, I was so excited – they were planning a beautiful winter wedding with an intimate ceremony and a lovely meal with friends and family for the reception. Abbi and Nick are the sweetest people and I couldn’t wait to shoot their wedding!
Getting ready
I started at Southdowns Manor, where the bridal party was getting ready, and it was so much fun, because everyone was in a good mood. Abbi wore a lacy dress and Nick wore a three-piece suit and they looked really perfect.
The ceremony
The wedding took place at Southdowns Manor, and was a romantic ceremony. They had some beautiful readings, which was so beautiful. After the ceremony they walked down the aisle together, and then we went and did some beautiful portraits.
The reception
The wedding reception took place Southdowns Manor, which was decorated so beautifully. It was so gorgeous.
It was a slightly rainy day, which wasn’t in the plan but the couple didn’t mind. While the guests enjoyed drinks at the bar, we wandered around the venue doing fun and creative portraits. My favourite photo from our portrait session is later in the evening with the off camera flash during storm Dennis. Check it out below!
During the reception they had a lovely meal with friends and family, which everyone loved. For the wedding breakfast they had a slap up meal, and it was super yummy. Afterwards, there were a few speeches and kept everyone dancing all night. They also had a photobooth, which everyone loved.
