COLLEGE FARM WEDDING- SOPHIE & DAVID- NOFOLK WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
I’ve really been looking forward to this College Farm Wedding for a while! It’s a venue that seems to attracted such fun and relaxed couples and is always a pleasure to return too. Rain was forecasted on the day of Sophie & Davids wedding but when I arrived it was bright with blue skies! Sophie was doing some finishing touches on the marquee with the help from family members and friends. It’s always awesome to see everyone helping out on a wedding day. They soon finished all preparations and Sophie stayed upstairs with her bridesmaids and started to get ready.
As always, the morning quickly flew by and Sophie and her 8 bridesmaids got into their dresses. They all looked so lovely, and Sophie just couldn’t stop smiling. One thing I love about College Farm is that every wedding is so different. There are so many different places to have your ceremony, and Sophie and David had theirs in the garden by the lake. As Sophie met David at the end of the aisle they were both absolutely beaming- it was so lovely to see! After some I’dos and hearing their Vows to one another, the couple then went inside to make everything official. They walked out to be presented their wedding certificate and then covered in colourful confetti.
As the afternoon went on the clouds got a little darker. So we quickly made sure we had any formal images done before it started to rain. Good job too as the second I got to the top of my ladder to take the group photo it began! Not that it mattered, as it was time for everyone to go inside the marquee and enjoy the lovely Afternoon Tea anyway. It was actually quite exciting to hear the odd grumble of thunder and see the flashes of lightening.
After the meal the blue sky made another appearance and we all went out to feed the Llamas and Alpacas. I think this was one of Sophie’s absolute favourite things about this venue. As we easily spent a good 45 minutes feeding and playing with the animals. Whilst all the guests continued to fatten up the animals, Sophie’s and David’s parents set up the garden games for everyone to enjoy when we returned.
As far as garden games go, they had EVERYTHING! We had hook a duck, egg and spoon, Coconut shy and lots more. So you can imagine that we were busy for hours! As the sun started to set the Ceilidh band began and everyone was dancing well into the evening. As always, It was a pleasure to see the lovely Katharine again at College Farm. It is now my personal goal to get at least one wedding a year here! Thank you Sophie & David for having me along on your wedding day! It was amazing!
If you’re having a College Farm Wedding then please get in contact. I’d love to hear you plans.
