Hawkesyard Estate Wedding Photographer | Kayleigh & Tom

I was so pleased when Kayleigh & Tom booked me to be their Hawkesyard Estate wedding photographer.  It is such a special venue and I have wanted to photograph there for a few years now.  This was also my first wedding in the snow and man it was cold, but what an amazing day!

I spent a fantastic day with Kayleigh & Tom at Hawkesyard Estate in Lichfield documenting their special day.  Hawkeyard Estate is set on the edge of the Cannock Chase countryside.  Its beautiful building and grounds make a perfect setting for a wedding, and a winter wedding at that!  The Hawkesyard estate has history dating back to 1270 when local gentry used the land for hunting.  Definitely worth a visit even if you aren’t there for a wedding.

Our day started with some photos of Kayleigh and the bridesmaids getting ready in the beautiful bridal suite.   The light from the windows made it a photographers dream.  Whilst Kayleigh was getting ready, the Groom and the arriving guests got things started in the Orangery Garden Bar.  Why not, it is wedding after all!

The wedding ceremony took place in the Lister Suite, which is situated in the main building adjacent to the amazing entrance.  After the ceremony we took some group shots in the snow and some lovely photographs of Kayleigh & Tom.  Once both had thawed out, the wedding breakfast followed in the Armitage Suite and lots of fun was had by all.

Thanks to Kayleigh and Tom for letting me share their special day!

Here are a few photos from our day!
