Kent Wedding Photographer | David Burke

Here’s part 2 of the wedding photography from Joanna and Charles’s wedding at my favourite Kent wedding venue – Hotel Du Vin, Tunbridge Wells.

Joanna and Charles were married on a very snowy day back in January. Originally, the couple had planned to leave the hotel after the meal and make the short walk home – I was looking forward to capturing a bride walking through the centre of Tunbridge Wells, but the weather put paid to those plans, so I was quite relieved to wheel spin my way slowly home after the wedding!

The happy couple were married in the Speyside Glenlivet room and then had drinks and canapes in the Tea Lounge whilst the room was turned round (in the usual highly efficient and professional manner one would expect from HDV!). Joanna and Charles then made their entrance to the room to join their guests and enjoy their wedding breakfast. After a few short speeches, the bride and groom circulated to have a relaxed chat with their guests in the candelight and then slowly said their goodbyes as the guests left (to brave the road conditions on the trip home!), which gave a great feeling to the end of their wedding day.

Here are some of my favourite images from the second part of the day – hope you enjoy!

Here’s part one of the wedding photography from Joanna and Charles’ lovely wedding at Hotel Du Vin, Tunbridge Wells back in January.

Joanna and Charles were my second wedding of the year, and the second of that weekend, which had been ‘slightly’ affected by snow here in the South East. Unfortunately on both days some guests just couldn’t make it due to the snow – luckily I only live 5 minutes away from HDV so I didn’t have too many problems getting to the wedding, although still drove at 5 mph all the way there; I must admit I was glad that everything was in the one place, so once there, I was happy!

Having joined Joanna for bridal preparations, I was then able to nip up and down to cover the boys, guest arrivals, the ceremony room etc. before we made our way down for the ceremony in the Speyside Glenlivet room. Afterwards, drinks and canapes were served in the Tea Lounge where Joanna and Charles greeted their guests. After group shots in the Havana Room (outside was basically out of bounds due to the falling snow – despite guest promptings, neither Bride, Groom or myself were that keen on doing any snow pictures, there was about a foot of snow by that stage!) I took Joanna and Charles on a tour of the hotel for some couples pictures.

Come back soon for part 2, the wedding breakfast and speeches!
