Autumn Wedding Coombe Lodge

I had an amazing day shooting Gemma and Ash’s Somerset wedding at Coombe Lodge last Autumn.

I came recommended to the couple by one of the bridesmaids whose wedding I photographed at Priston Mill few years back. We connected easily.

Being a Somerset wedding photographer comes with a lot of excitement, especially when you get to work with a great couple like Gemma and Ash. Add lovely guests and a stunning venue like Coombe Lodge to the mix and you have the perfect conditions for shooting a Somerset wedding photography.

I have photographed weddings in Coombe Lodge a lot of times and I always love returning to this finest Somerset wedding venue as it is such a spacious and beautiful place. But like I always say – every wedding is different to photograph.

So let’s start at the beginning of Gemma and Ash’s day.

When I arrived at Coombe Lodge, first what I saw was a gorgeous cake created by very talented Lauren (bride’s sis) from The Extraordinary Cake Company. It was probably the tallest wedding cake I have ever seen too! Later on I caught up with Gemma who was getting ready in spacious bridal suite. Her fab bridal party kept her company and helped her as she got dressed. Lauren from Beauty & Make up Bristol and Hair by Kansas did great job, as the bride looked just amazing.

I then caught up with Ash who was getting ready in another room with his mates and was looking rather dapper in his suit.

You see, this is one of the many things I love about Coombe Lodge. It is so big that the bride and groom can get ready at the venue without bumping into each other. What this means for a Somerset Wedding Photographer Coombe Lodge is that you can photograph bride & groom prep at the same time!

When we got to the ceremony, Gemma’s father proudly walked her down the ceremony room. She looked stunning in her wedding dress from Alison Jayne Bridal. Ash looked on in awe and couldn’t wait to have her by his side.

Shout outs to Vocal Works Gospel choir and Christian Fletcher who entertained guests throughout the ceremony and the reception.

We were lucky to find a gap when it was not raining and we did all the group shots and couple shots. After the speeches we did a few evening shots in the rain (my white umbrella always comes handy) and some inside Coombe Lodge too.
