Cardiff City Hall Modern Micro Wedding | Lawrence + Ayah

Lawrence and Ayah chose to keep it small and have their closest friends and family with them when they tied the knot.
We started the day at St Davids Hotel in Cardiff Bay where they both got ready, and then we went to Cardiff Museum to get some portraits. The sun was shining for them, and only rained as we travelled. Making me a very happy photographer!
Their small and intimate wedding reception was held in The Ivy in Cardiff’s St David’s centre.

Old House 1147, Maesteg | Mary W-Thomas Photo + Film

Last August I was asked to photograph a beautiful micro wedding in the Old House 1147 near Maesteg. The newly refurbished venue was decorated with beautiful flowers by wild meadow floral and the stationery designed by the bride herself. Jemima and Ben had postponed the date from earlier in the year and had chosen to have the wedding reception at this beautiful venue due to the fantastic views and amazing food.

Jemima wore a beautiful white dress and a flower crown that was originally her mums at her wedding. She also wore a custom denim jacket.

Broadway Country House Wedding | Laugharne | Matt & Sian

In May 2019, I got to document the absolutely gorgeous wedding of Sian & Matt. I have known Sian for over 10 years after going to college together, and I was so excited to be able to get back together and be there for her & Matt’s big day.
So much love I cannot even cope; they were the sweetest.

Cardiff Registry Office | Old Post House, St Fagans | Rhianna & Jordan

Now imagine.. I get a message of a canadian couple who met me through our mutual love of Ripple Living in Roath. I find out that it may be the most epic Wedding of 2019. City Hall, Pride Weekend, followed up with a reception at the Old Post House, St Fagans.

This was an epic wedding to put it lightly, a party of 95% Canadians, all flying in a couple days before. The hottest day of the year, and smack bang in the middle of Pride Weekend in Cardiff.
This is a wedding of what dreams are made of. So get ready, because this is going to be an epic blog post.

We started the day getting ready at Mwah Cardiff.

Now this is where the fun began! It was Pride Weekend in Cardiff, and traffic was a bit busy. So we hopped in a UBER and got back to Canton, where Rhianna had rented the most beautiful Air Bnb for her bridal party.

After the ceremony we went to the beautiful Old Post House, St Fagans. Here are some detail shots of the Great Gatsby themed day.

Modern Cathays Wedding | Cardiff | Becca & Matt

I had the absolute pleasure of being the wedding photographer for Becca & Matt. A Spring wedding in the heart of Cathays, at Highfields Church.
With their christian faith at the centre of their ceremony, and Matt’s Pakistani heritage reflected in the groomsmen’s dress and reception. It was a day where both culture were celebrated.
Also the biggest bridal party to date, 8 bridesmaids! The more the merrier in my opinion!
