Church Wedding in Hungerford – A Beautiful Berkshire Celebration
A Church Wedding in Hungerford offers couples a stunning backdrop for their big day, combining historic charm with picturesque countryside views. Hannah and Jacob chose the beautiful Hungerford United Reformed Church for their heartfelt ceremony, surrounded by family and friends. As a documentary wedding photographer, my approach was to capture the day naturally, preserving the real emotions, laughter, and fleeting moments that made their wedding so special.
A Beautiful Ceremony at Hungerford United Reformed Church
The morning began with Jacob and his groomsmen finalizing their preparations, sharing laughs and adjusting ties, setting a joyful tone for the day. I then joined Hannah as she prepared with her bridesmaids. A particularly touching moment was the bridesmaids’ first look; as Hannah descended the stairs in her wedding dress, their faces lit up with joy and admiration—a genuine reaction that was a pleasure to capture.
The ceremony at Hungerford United Reformed Church was bathed in stunning late summer light, enhancing the church’s serene atmosphere. Hannah walked confidently down the aisle, and the couple exchanged vows amidst smiles and happy tears. The natural light streaming through the windows provided a perfect setting for capturing these intimate moments authentically.
Village Hall Wedding Reception and Golden Hour Portraits
Following the ceremony, guests gathered outside the church to shower the newlyweds with confetti, celebrating Hannah and Jacob’s union. The reception took place at Portal Hall in Burghclere, Hampshire, a charming venue that the couple had personalized with thoughtful details, reflecting their unique style.
During the reception, we seized the opportunity to step into the nearby fields for a brief portrait session. The late summer sunshine provided a warm, golden light, perfect for capturing relaxed and natural portraits of the couple amidst the beautiful Berkshire countryside. This short session ensured that Hannah and Jacob could enjoy some quiet moments together without being away from their guests for too long.
Evening Celebrations and Sparklers
As the evening progressed, heartfelt speeches brought laughter and tears, leading into the first dance. The couple’s choreographed routine was a highlight, and the addition of sparklers added a magical touch to the festivities. Guests gathered outside, sparklers in hand, creating a sparkling pathway that added a memorable and photogenic moment to the celebration.
