A BEAUTIFUL SUMMER WEDDING IN TROTTON, WEST SUSSEX – LUCY AND MATTHEW

IF YOU’RE PLANNING A COUNTRY MANOR WEDDING, YOU’LL LOVE THIS WEDDING FOR INSPIRATION!

When Lucy and Matthew first got in touch with me about their wedding, I was so excited – they were planning a relaxed countryside wedding with an intimate ceremony and a lovely meal with friends and family for the reception. Lucy and Matthew are the most fun people and I couldn’t wait to shoot their wedding!

GETTING READY

I started at Southdowns Manor, where the bride was getting ready, and it was so chilled out, because everyone was in a good mood. Lucy wore a lacy dress and Matthew 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 brought pretty much everyone to tears. After the ceremony they walked down the aisle together, and then the celebrations began.

THE RECEPTION

The wedding reception took place Southdowns Manor, which was decorated so lovely. It was so beautiful.

It was a overcast day, which was what the couple had hoped for. While the guests enjoyed drinks at the bar, I did some family photos. My favourite photo from our couples session is with smoke bombs and later in the evening at golden hour. Check it out below!

During the reception they had a lovely meal with friends and family, which everyone loved. For the wedding breakfast they served a hog roast, and it was so yummy. Afterwards, they had some wonderful speeches and the dancefloor was packed all evening. They also had a DJ, which everyone loved.

Here are some other awesome summer weddings for inspiration! If you’re getting married and looking for a wedding photographer, get in touch.
