Wedding photography at the Hampshire Court Hotel
I recently photographed June & Steven’s wedding at the Hampshire Court Hotel in Basingstoke, Hampshire. What a gorgeous wedding with an elegant colour theme of purples and lilacs, accented with delicate butterflies.
I loved the decor in the honeymoon suite at the Hampshire Court Hotel. It was a mix of modern and retro, very effective indeed!
June looked absolutely stunning in her beautiful wedding dress as she made her grand entrance, and walked down the aisle to meet Steven, her true love!
The bridesmaids looked beautiful in their refreshingly different dresses which echoed the wedding theme, right down to the butterflies! The bridesmaids also had lovely wrist corsages rather than bouquets. The flower girl had a lovely white dress with a sash of purple roses.
June’s hair and makeup were done by the very talented Amida at the Red Carpet Salon Spa. Amida kept the mood light and entertaining as she worked her magic!
June and Steven picked The Flower Tree, located at the Viables Craft Centre, for their wedding flowers. Trust me, I really get a close up look at these when I’m photographing them and they were just beautiful! The main flowers were stunning purple cala lilies and lavender roses.
The wedding was officiated by the most photographer friendly registrar I have ever met. Thanks to Cassie, I was able to really capture all the special moments during the ceremony. I sometimes wonder about all the wedding officiates that restrict photographers so much. In my opinion, the only ones they are thinking of, is themselves. I’ve never met a bride and groom who didn’t want their ceremony photographed and it’s such a shame not being able to capture those special ‘first’ moments.
The Hampshire Court Hotel was beautifully set up for the ceremony, complete with elegant chair covers and purple sashes.
Steven and June selected Ian James Discoteque for their DJ. Ian really did a good job getting people on the floor dancing and having a great time!
Such beautiful photos and lovely couple to work with organising their wedding.
I wish them every happiness in the future.
