AMY & ben | A Fennes WEDDING

19.10.19

It was such an honour to be able to capture Amy & Ben’s magical day. Here’s their story…

Why did you pick Fennes, and what makes it special to you?

The church we are marrying in, is the family church for Ben and where his grandparents are buried, we wanted them close by.  We chose the Fennes for its beauty and seclusion, we love the view as you drive up the driveway.   

It's a real honour to have been chosen to capture your special day - thank you! We would love to know why you chose us - what is it about our work that you like?

The laid back vibe, capturing the love and passion from people’s wedding days. 

What is important in life to you?

Our family and friends.

What is a typical Sunday/day off together like for you?

Lay in, nice breakfast then usually spending time with our families or a day out just the two of us being together.

How did you meet each other?

When we were 15, at Amy’s school prom. 

How about the proposal? Tell us everything! :-)

It was in Gran Canaria whilst we were on holiday, it was our 9th anniversary and Ben sorted the whole day. We had a spa day, followed by drinks to watch the sunset and then a 6 course meal with our own personal waiter on a litter veranda that looked out over the hills and sea. Ben had put together a scrapbook of all our photos and memories together and on the last page was a poem which I had to read aloud and then he was on one knee! Very romantic! 

Why did you choose each other over anyone else?

We just get each other, and are best friends!
