Last Saturday I joined Sophie & Sam for their EPIC wedding at Riverland Wedding Barns near Goole in East Yorkshire – arguably my new favourite venue in all of Yorkshire!
East Yorkshires finest renovated barn wedding venue… A photographers dream venue!
Not only was everything about the barns perfectly styled and planned for a relaxed, funky wedding, but this couple and their fam and friends were just a delight to be around. (I shot Sophie’s sister Pip’s wedding a few years back and it was so good to see everyone again!).
This creative, musical couple (and their army of planners and helpers) thought of everything; from Pip taking on the role of Celebrant (& brownie baker!), a best pal being ‘Mistress of Ceremonies’ (according to Dad’s description anyway!) and Sam’s brother and pro singer bridesmaid leading guests in singing Africa by Toto to end the blessing!
Details (& the epic BBQ food from Big D’s BBQ!) were a delight – from homemade lawn games to the epic mountain of brownies! Their little one year old Amelia was front and centre enjoying all the shenanigans, and the Kyler & Kate from Riverlands ran everything with a professional chilled precision. (They even got involved in ‘the peg game’ where guests secretly clipped clothes pegs on each other and I’m still finding them hanging off my camera bag!)
Surrounded by open fields and nature reserves, it is private and exclusive, but relaxed and easy to get to!
My wingman Paul Stott and I had a blast with this fab crowd. I love shooting wedding photography all across Yorkshire and love discovering new venues! Kyler & Kate at Riverlands Wedding Barns were such fun to work with and I hope to be back again soon!
