Sarah + Alex – Coniston Hotel Wedding
Sarah + Alex | A Joy-Filled Coniston Hotel Wedding
Wow – what a day! Sarah and Alex’s wedding at the stunning Coniston Hotel was a total dream from start to finish.
Packed full of genuine love, big laughs, and so many moments that made my job as a Yorkshire wedding photographer an absolute joy.
They chose my hybrid photo & film package, which meant I had the honour of capturing both stills and motion throughout their day. It’s always special seeing the moments come to life in film – and trust me, their preview film is one you don’t want to miss (scroll down to watch it! Hit play, turn up the volume, and grab a tissue – you’ve been warned!)
A Ceremony Full of Heart
One of the standout moments from the day was during the ceremony. Sarah’s Grandad delivered the most beautiful and heartfelt reading, and there wasn’t a dry eye in the room (including mine, behind the camera!). It’s the kind of memory that really sums up their whole wedding – deeply personal, filled with emotion, and grounded in family.
The weather didn’t exactly play ball, but if any couple could pull off a “rain? what rain?” attitude, it was these two! We laughed our way through dodging showers, and honestly, it just proved that a little drizzle can’t dampen the magic one bit.
As a Coniston Hotel wedding photographer, I always get excited when couples book this venue – and for good reason …
– Breathtaking Backdrops: Nestled in the Yorkshire Dales, The Coniston offers endless opportunities for beautiful portraits. From the lakeside views to the rolling hills, the natural light here is next level. It’s like stepping into a romantic painting.
– All-in-One Venue: Everything flows seamlessly at The Coniston. From prep in the luxury rooms to the ceremony and reception all on-site, there’s no stressful travel between venues – which means more time to celebrate (and more relaxed photos!).
– Space to Celebrate: Sarah and Alex made full use of the gorgeous function spaces, and it was incredible to see their personalities shine through in every detail. The vibe was fun, classy, and totally them – with a dancefloor that was packed all night long.
From the emotional ceremony, singing waiters, to the electric party atmosphere, this was one of those weddings where you could feel the love radiating all day.
Sarah and Alex are just such kind, warm people, and it was a privilege to capture their story …
If you’re planning your own celebration and looking for a Yorkshire wedding photographer who can blend candid photography with emotive storytelling film, I’d love to hear from you.
