Ellen & Jack's Rustic Farm Wedding at Pengenna Manor & Gelly's Farm
Ellen and Jack's rustic summer wedding at Pengenna Manor and Stephen Kelly's Farm near Lanhydrock in Cornwall.
Ellen and Jack got hitched on a beautiful summery day at Pengenna Manor. This 800 year old family home is tucked away in a quiet, secluded valley just three miles inland from the North Cornish coast. The over 300 acres of beautiful Cornish countryside offer great photo opportunities and playground for your outdoor wedding.
Ellen and Jack were blessed with warm weather and blue skies and could fulfil their dream of an outdoor wedding. The ceremony was followed by Pimm's and Cream Tea, homemade by grandma.
The reception was held in a farm barn at Stephen Gelly Farm near Lanhydrock, owned by a family friend. They had a lot of work pimping up the reception venue as I heard a few days earlier the barn was still a cowshed! Very impressive what can be achieved with the help of a few friends and family. Ellen and Jack's transport of choice was a beautiful classic Morgan. The decorations were kept in a fitting rustic DIY style. Ellen handmade all the save the dates, invites and wedding favours/name tags, designed the tables and her mum made all of the bunting and the back drop at the barn, and all of their friends and family helped to decorate. Another smaller barn served as help yourself bar with everything you could wish for from spirits, mixers, ales, wine, cider, craft beers and I even found some German beer!
It was a perfect relaxed day with some beautiful people, a wedding I will remember!

Congratulations Jasmine & Richard at Pengenna Manor, Cornwall
Jasmine and Richard's stylish grand country house wedding at pengenna manor in Cornwall..
Jasmine and Richard celebrated their big day at Pengenna Manor, a beautiful grand country house tucked away in quiet secluded valley on the north cornish coast. When I met them for their pre wedding consultation I was honestly a bit worried about the unreliable cornish weather when they told me all their outdoor focused wedding plans. But it all came together on this hot blue sky mid summer's day.
The decorations were a feast for the eye including origami paper folding cake decoration, DIY bunting and a woodland walk framed with the couple's pictures..Everything had such a personal touch to it and reflected their vibrant personality.
I'm so pleased their outdoor wedding dream came true. Such a nice colourful mix of people having fun with garden games (the giant Jenga is always my favourite, especially when it finally collapses!), an outdoor bar/sweets bar, outdoor Photo Booth and a surprise ice-cream trike to name just a few.. the wedding breakfast was in laid back picnic style andRichards dance off just after the first dance made me cry out loud from laughing, I'm sure they had a great night after I left..
Here is a collection of my favourite shots from the day..

Choosing a style you love is important, but beyond the aesthetic, have you thought about which moments from your wedding day you’ll want to relive forever?
