Sun, smiles and I do’s! What’s not to like?
Mai and Joe welcomed their family and friends to the beautiful Mill Barns Wedding Venue in Alveley, which sits amongst the scenic and picturesque views of the Midlands countryside.

We loved photographing this wedding, it was everything a wedding should be! So much love, laughter and tears of happiness. Mai and Joe did not let the restrictions of Covid-19 get in the way of having their perfect big day.
The Mill Barns is a prime example of the beautiful wedding venues the West Midlands has to offer, with such a diverse mix of barns, country houses, urban settings and luxury hotels! We cannot think of a better location to live in and work as a wedding photographer! The couple picked the most perfect suppliers with Country foxes dressing the venue and creating the most beautiful flower arrangements and bouquets! We have even booked them ourselves for our own wedding! The bridal party had their hair and make-up done by Shannon who did a wonderful job! Pianist Amy from Amore music provided a beautiful set of piano covers for guests for the ceremony! It really set the scene and happy tears were out in full force.
The couple were surprised with a classical car to take them to their evening reception in their own garden with gazebos, fairy lights and delicious food for 1000 people (we may have taken a sausage roll two). Stories were told, speeches were laughed at and family and friends embraced a magical end to this Midlands fairytale wedding!
