I did wedding photography at the beautiful Barley wood House in Wrington on Saturday for Joey and Amy, and it was a joyful, magical day, full of Mexican colours.
Barley Wood House was built in 1801 on the grounds of Wrington with stunning views across Bristol. The house was bought by the YMCA charity in 2015 to restore the house and use it as a wedding venue and also a children's nursery. Barley Wood House is also available to rent for family occasions and events via Airbnb.
Both myself and the groom live in Portishead and both Joey and Amy were trying to use all local suppliers for their Mexican themed wedding. I met up with them at Hall and Woodhouse in Portishead to discuss arrangements for the day and meet the lovely couple. The date was set for a warm summery day in June as they wanted all the lavender and roses in the garden and an outdoor wedding.
Once the date came around I was a little worried as the day before on the Friday, was a massive thunderstorm and heavy rain! The lovely wedding couple got extremely lucky with the weather and managed to have the outside wedding at Barley Wood that they wanted.
The sun shone for the outside wedding ceremony as the guests watched Joey and Amy get married.
Barley Wood House has some amazing scenery and the grounds are beautiful. The couple chose to have their confetti shots down on the garden and pathway next to the pond which was a great place for this. They chose dried petals for the confetti
After the confetti Joey and Amy chose to have a Pinata game for the children and drinks and canapés on the gardens for the guests.
Barley Wood House has a panoramic backdrop of the Mendip Hills. This made for some really beautiful photo opportunities for the Bride and Groom couple photos later on in the day.
Here are some more photos from the very special day:
