Wedding St Pancras Renaissance Hotel - Jenny & Spencer

Jenny and Spencer's relaxed and cosy Winter Wedding took place on Sunday 4th December at St Pancras Renaissance Hotel Kings Cross London.


After years of devoted restoration, this amazing 5-star luxury hotel has re-opened. It truly is a great London venue. Combining incredibly impressive Victorian architecture with an amazingly romantic setting. No wonder it's been voted the Number One Hotel in the UK.


Jenny and Spencer wanted to ensure the main focus of the day was on fun, a great party for all their friends and family. Jewish traditions were mixed into certain parts of the day including a Rabbi blessing. They had a wonderful string quartet playing on the Grand Staircase after the ceremony and then they danced their first dance as man and wife to 'You & Me' by the Dave Matthews Band.


The evening festivities included cake, cheese and chips! and everyone had a great dance to a set played by the DJ and a live band.


Congratulations to Jenny and Spencer from s8 films!

Wedding at Great Fosters - Annie Ashton and Philip Glyn

Annie Ashton and Philip Glyn's intimate, romantic Jewish Wedding took place at the end of September at Great Fosters Tudor House in Egham, Surrey.

Annie and Phil had invited their nearest and dearest family and friends from all over the world to celebrate their special day. 

The Wedding was a very friendly and informal affair which put all their guests at ease, yet it still remained both chic and polished with the flowers and theme of the day inspired by trees and nature.

The evening dancing got a bit crazy with Phil reaching new heights!

It was a lovely atmospheric Wedding, all the best to you both!

Barnsley House wedding - Kate Fraser & Grantley

Kate and Grantley's outdoor Wedding took place on an amazingly warm Indian Summer's day at the end of September 2011 at Barnsley House, a lovely Cotswolds boutique hotel in Cirencester, Gloucestershire.

It was a lovely relaxed family affair with plenty of children running around including their very own 16 month old son Jacob. Kate had put her stylish stamp on the day by hand-making all the stationery and favours which was a lovely touch. 

An unusual and funny surprise by Kate's mum was making all the guests wear masks of Kate and Grant as they entered the Reception, so the newlyweds were faced with a sea of 'themselves' as they made their entrance!

The happy couple signed the register to 'You are the sunshine of my life' then they started off the evening of dancing with 'Everything' by Michael Buble.

It was a truly lovely day!

All the best to Kate, Grantley and Jacob from s8 films!

Wedding Buckland House - Ross and Caireen

Ross and Caireen were married in a lovely Humanist Ceremony in the grounds of the magnificent Georgian Mansion, Buckland House in Beaworthy Devon. It's a great 'Country Manor House' Venue oozing with style, yet perfect for a laid back and friendly weekend Wedding.

The weather held out and the Humanist Ceremony took place outside. The Bride looked very glamorous in her Vintage inspired dress and the bridesmaids looked great in their white lace shift dresses.

The Wedding Cake was actually made out of tiered Jellies, which looked like jewels wobbling away in the sunlight, a very nice touch. The attention to detail with the styling of the day was apparent everywhere, nothing was left to chance.

After the Newlyweds first dance to 'You're my Best Friend' by Queen the guests took to the outdoor chess board dance-floor and danced the night away under a twinkling roof of fairy lights.

The photographer had set up an outdoor fancy dress photo-shoot for all the guest to take part in which was very comical!

It was a great fun stylish Wedding in a lovely venue  - all the best to Caireen and Ross!

Karen and Melvyn's Wedding at Syon Lodge

Karen and Melvyn's Wedding - Syon Lodge Karen and Melvyn tied the knot in an intimate affair at the infamous Register Office at the Chelsea Old Town Hall on the Kings Road, London. The party were then whisked off by 'stretched hummer' to Syon Lodge, West London to join the rest of the Wedding Guests for an evening of celebrations and dancing in the grounds of Syon Lodge. Syon Lodge, which lies on the edge of the grand Syon Park has been used in the past for Fashion Shoots and Private Parties,but this was the first time it has been used as a Wedding Reception Venue, and I have to say it worked wonderfully. The grounds are fantastic and as night fell they were magically lit. The rain fell and then the sun shone but this did not stop the huge party of young and old having a fantasic day! The Bride and Groom spent their Wedding night at the nearby and new 'Syon Park - Waldorf Astoria' Hotel. Congratulations to you both!
