Relaxed and Joyful September Wedding at Brookfield barn, Sussex
If you’re planning your Big Day at Brookfield barn in Sussex, you’ll find a lot of inspiration in this blog!
Gemma and Kieran got married at the beautiful Brookfield barn – an exclusive use wedding venue in Sussex. The highlight of the venue is a gorgeous lake right by the ceremony space.
Gemma and Kieran wanted to have a big celebration with all their loved ones, a relaxed day full of laughter, joy and happy tears.
Morning Preparations
Gemma decided to get ready at an Airbnb not far from the venue. It was such a nice space, with big bedrooms, plenty of natural light, and more than enough space for everyone to get ready and feel comfortable.
I absolutely loved Gemma’s wedding outfit, consisting of a skirt and a top by two different designers. However they were a perfect fit, and definitely very unique to Gemma. The bride has an amazing taste, and she looked so stylish and sophisticated wearing it. The top was covered in pearls, and the bottom was a beautiful long skirt. It looked so classic and timeless, yet so chic.
Gemma’s hair was a low bun, which, again, is such a classic bridal look. I absolutely loved everything about the bride, she really was a vision!
The Wedding Ceremony
The ceremony was inside, and it was so pretty. There was a lot of green, peachy and pink colours which looked beautiful with the background of the barn. There were some huge Christmas baubles hanging from the middle of the ceiling, and some fairy lights, and it all looked so magical.
The Wedding Reception
The wedding breakfast room was beautifully set up. There were long tables with gorgeous details and so many flowers. It was obvious that the couple had put in so much thought into everything.
Gemma and Kieran had a lovely doughnut cake. After they had cut it, they had their wonderful first dance.
Couple Portrait Photos
I’ve already mentioned how much I liked Gemma’s wedding outfit. Kieran wore a really nice three-piece dark green suit, with a lovely detailed tie.
Even though it was raining most of the day, it didn’t stop us from getting amazing photos. After their couple shoot Gemma and Kieran returned to their guests to party!
Review
Gemma and Kieran got in touch with me about a year before their wedding, saying that they really liked my unobtrusive and relaxed style, and my film inspired timeless colours. They were looking for a photographer who would blend in with their celebration and document their day, but also produce the most stunning photographs. I’m so happy they found me!
Here is what they said afterwards:
“Yana is brilliant! From the moment of booking Yana made things stress free, easy to understand and very exciting. On the Big Day Yana was great. She knew the venue very well, and expressed all that experience to make our wedding photos amazing. We chose Yana because of her style of photography and how she made colours stand out so well, and she did not disappoint with the final product. Wouldn’t change a single photo from our wedding day, and we can’t stop looking at them.
Would recommend Yana to anybody as she is a fun, reliable photographer who is open to all ideas and knows how to make you feel amazing on your Big Day!”
