We’re sharing with you this beautiful Aldwark Manor wedding of Laura and Ben captured by the talented duo from Colin Murdoch Studio. This is what they had to say about the day:
Although we’d visited Aldwark Manor before, to photograph an event, this was our first time photographing a wedding at this stunning venue located between Harrogate and York.
Laura and Ben’s Aldwark Manor wedding
Laura and Ben’s day was very family orientated, and Laura wanted to include their girls as much as possible in the day. We really enjoyed working with them – Heather spent the morning with Ben and the boys as they got ready (and had a couple of drinks!) at the hotel. Meanwhile, Colin captured Laura with her bridesmaids and family, as they got ready.
Their ceremony took place at Aldwark Manor, with a drinks reception following in the gardens and grounds of the hotel. Family photos and some couple’s portraits took place, before everyone headed back into the hotel for the wedding breakfast and speeches.
Aldwark Manor wedding venue
There are 120 acres of grounds surrounding the hotel, including a golf course, and it’s lovely for photographs. We took advantage of the light for a few more photos with Laura and Ben later in the evening, before the party well and truly started and everyone hit the dancefloor. We love getting right in the middle of the action at that time of night, and Laura and Ben’s friends and family were certainly up for having a good time!
