Wedding photography in Norwich

A small collection of my favourite wedding photos from our wedding last month. There were many more, but I’ll save those for showing people in a printed album. These were taken by my very talented friend Jess Wilkins at St Giles Hotel early June. Jess specialises in maternity, newborn and Toddlers, but as you can see she isn’t just extremely talented in that one field. Love the photos so much and very pleased to have such great friends to help make our day special.

The dress from Phase Eight online! Picked in just 2 days due to disaster in getting a dress made! I wouldn’t recommend anyone get a dress made from scratch. Turned out to be a very stressful event and very time consuming.

The bridal suite at St Giles. Very stunning room, but no extras to make it special. I would recommend if you are getting married there to take some extra special bits with you. There wasn’t even any hand soap! Also no tall mirror, so I couldn’t have that final check 😮 !!! Also, room service was slow, so take your own food and drink for getting ready during the day. Actually, to be honest, the service as a whole was very slow and not very professional. We asked for the cake to be cut and buffet to be served at 7.30pm and it was 8.45pm when it finally came out after lots of nagging!! Not really what you want to be doing on your wedding day. Also, the upstairs bar was very poorly stocked up and the staff were talking about doing a ‘Tesco’ run!! :-O Food ran out extremely quickly and was a hassle to get the staff to restock it. St Giles is a stunning building, but extremely let down by down being poorly run. If you are getting married there I would recommend putting a friend in charge of the day, so things go smoothly I didn’t do this as I trusted the venue to do it, which you would expect when you are paying them to do so :-/
