Each wedding that I capture is special for me but Christmas weddings always have a unique magic. Last Christmas, Francesca and Alex’s Lillibrooke Manor wedding in Maidenhead, Berkshire, was absolutely beautiful.

Francesca and Alex had their wedding ceremony at Bray Church in Maidenhead. Alex was waiting for his Francesca with excitement. Francesca arrived with her dad in a beautiful classic car. Their dog also came to the church after the ceremony to congratulate the newlyweds.

The couple were married just before Christmas  at the beautiful Lillibrooke Manor in Maidenhead provided the perfect backdrop for the festive wedding. The gorgeous Christmas tree and was spectacularly decorated and fairy lights brought out the very best of this stunning event venue. Lillibrooke Manor is very popular barn wedding venue in Berkshire.

They had an amazing wedding day with their family and friends. Before cutting the cake and the first dance we went out for sparklers to start the party. Francesca and Alex made the most of the evening dance and sang along to the music through the night.
