Destination Wedding Sicily the hottest wedding ever

Destination Wedding Sicily

Finally Im back from an amazing wedding in Sicily and my hottest wedding ever. Photographing in 39 degrees , 102f is a task in itself. But wow what a wedding what a venue Castle Xirumi Serravalle is an amazing 16th century building , the original property of the famous Grimaldi family , guests driving from Messina and Toarmina driving through the Sicilian countryside were struck by how beautiful this wedding venue looks. Emma and Turi fell in love with the venue, as did I and all the wedding guests . There will be more wedding photos to follow but I thought a montage would be good to show first.

Wedding at Trafalgar Park

Liz and Jez couldnt of found a better place to have their wedding Trafalgar Park, it was a perfect venue for them. Im positive Liz must of co ordinated that . They graced Trafalgar Park . The house was renamed “Trafalgar” when given to the brother of Admiral Nelson after his death in 1805 to commemorate the great battle . Earl Nelsons lived at Trafalgar Park until 1948 when the house was sold. Jez didnt decorate with ships though Planes directed guests to their tables a great idea.

York Minster Castle Howard wedding

York Minster Castle Howard wedding
This past weekend I was in the heart of England York , photographing the wonderful wedding of Jason and Helen.
York Minster Gothic Cathedral is the largest gothic styled cathedral in Europe and easily one of the world’s most impressive  cathedrals  with detailed statues , stained glass , gothic carvings in the Chapter House and an incredible choir.
The wedding reception at one of the UK’s finest stately homes Castle Howard near York built in 1699. Famous from  the BBC’s Brideshead Revisted . An overwhelming feeling of magnificence engulfs you,  as you get closer to the house, sat in extensive grounds containing temples, lakes, stables, courtyards, fountains and rose gardens , Castle Howard is as impressive inside as it is outside.

swedish english garden wedding

Garden weddings will not get better than this, Axelvold, the home of Claus Wachtmeister. With the backdrop of a splendid 19th century house, the gardens fall away to the north and south many hundreds of yards, forming architectural vistas bordered by hornbeam hedges. Roses and peonies flowered all over the garden. Some of the roses were over 100 years old . Drinks were served garden in a charming garden trellis beautifully designed opening up over the garden. This really was a perfect country house wedding.
