Confetti, cocktails and canine-cuteness

After the ceremony, the couple stepped outside the gatehouse for a confetti moment, surrounded by their closest family and friends. The celebrations then moved into a relaxed drinks reception, where guests enjoyed mingling in the picturesque grounds of Pentney Abbey.

One of the highlights of the day was the appearance of their adorable French Bulldog, thanks to a doggy daycare service. Having their four-legged friend join in for some cuddles and photos made the day even more special!

The speeches were another highlight of the day. Emotions ran high as family and friends shared heartfelt words about the couple, including an especially touching speech from the best woman. There was a perfect balance of laughter and tears, showcasing just how loved Bethany and Matt are by those around them.

As the evening unfolded, the soft evening light cast a soft, warm glow over the Essex countryside. We couldn’t resist taking full advantage of it, heading to a nearby cornfield for more portraits. The results were nothing short of breathtaking (if I do say so myself!). The combination of the soft light, Bethany’s flowing veil, and the undeniable chemistry between her and Matt made for some truly magical moments. These images are worth a scroll, capturing the essence of their love story in such a picturesque setting.

Stylish details and personal touches

Charlotte and Matt’s wedding style was effortlessly elegant. The groomsmen looked sharp in grey tweed suits, while Matt stood out in a cream suit – a perfect choice for a groom who wanted something a little different. The bridesmaids wore beautiful shades of soft pink, complementing the dried flower arrangements that added a rustic, boho charm to the décor.
