Laura & Tom’s Wedding at Shendish Manor
A Hertfordshire wedding day with documentary coverage and big dance floor energy
Laura & Tom’s November wedding at Shendish Manor was a brilliant mix of relaxed moments, personal touches, and a high-energy evening party. From morning prep in the Bridal Suite, to Tom helping decorate the Longman Suite, a ceremony in the Dickinson Suite, and a sparkler send-off to finish, their day was full of warmth, humour, and atmosphere.

The Wedding Day
My coverage began with bridal prep in the Shendish Manor Bridal Suite, photographing Laura as she had her hair and makeup done. Alongside documentary moments, I captured details of her dress, shoes, jewellery, and her pink rose bouquet by Maples Flowers.
While I was with Laura, my second photographer spent the morning with Tom, documenting him helping decorate the Longman Suite for the wedding breakfast. He also captured relaxed portraits of Tom and his groomsmen, including a fun Ghostbusters-style walk that set the tone for the day.
The ceremony took place in the Dickinson Suite and included readings from the groomsmen and Laura’s brother. After the ceremony, Laura and Tom were congratulated by their guests before we headed outside for group photos, including a full group shot with everyone.
The wedding breakfast was served in the Longman Suite and was followed by speeches filled with laughter and great reactions.
The evening celebrations kicked off with the cutting of the cake and the first dance, before the dance floor filled up fast. One of the standout moments was Tom and his groomsmen taking over the floor with a “Weird Al” Yankovic medley, which had everyone in stitches.
The night finished with a sparkler shot outside, a perfect way to round off a brilliant wedding day.
