A fairytale winter wedding with Helen and Phil at Merewood Country House Hotel in the Lake District

Paul Mortimer — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 14:25:47 +0000

A beautiful country house hotel with views of the lake, a picturesque country church, a carriage and an Aston Martin DB9….. what more could you ask for on your wedding day, other than Paul Mortimer Photography to capture the whole day for you of course! I always enjoy attending weddings at the Merewood Hotel in Windermere and I think it makes the perfect venue for a winter wedding with its open fires and cosy lounges. The wedding of Helen & Phil was no exception and we had a great day with them, I am sure you agree that the carriage Helen used is beautiful, although the Aston Martin she organised for Phil as a surprise would of been my preferred method of transport, but you know what us boys are like for our toys!

“From Russia with love” at Mark & Marina’s wedding at The Langdale Chase Hotel, Windermere

Paul Mortimer — Wed, 30 Dec 2009 14:23:57 +0000

Although I normally meet my bride and groom before their wedding day, Mark and Marina flew in from Jersey and I only met them for the first time on the morning of the wedding! As such, I had no idea that Marina was in fact Russian and that her family had flown in from Russia to be with her on her wedding day. This was a lovely surprise and the whole day had a wonderful mix of English and Russian wedding traditions. I am not sure if it was for this reason, or that they were such lovely people, but the whole day was just that bit special, with lots of excitement and emotion….. and of course lots of translation from English to Russian and back again!

Walking down to the ceremony to the beautiful sound of the harp played by Anna Kate Pearson from Windermere…

They held their ceremony in the great hall of the Langdale Chase Hotel, it was beautiful and we got a fantastic mixture of shots from both above and below…

These gorgeous shots were taken inside the hotel before the Lake district weather cleared up!

We decided to brave the weather…

With fantastic results!

The langdale Chase is a fantastic wedding venue for it’s stunning views over Lake Windermere as you can see…

Fun was had by all when the dancing began…

Another beautiful wedding with Katherine & Chris at one of our favourite venues, the Langdale Chase Hotel, Windemere

Paul Mortimer — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 18:15:26 +0000

Katherine & Chris first came to see me about their wedding photography about 18 months ago and from the moment they booked it, I knew I would enjoy being their photographer, as they really are such a lovely couple. Katherine is a vet and Chris a doctor, but I managed not to mention any of mine or my dog’s ailments throughout the whole wedding (it was difficult), but they assured me that it is what people always seem to do! Katherine was very keen to get outside to use the wonderful panoramic views of the lakes as the back drop for her wedding pictures, however, the lakes being the lakes meant that it poured down almost all day. Amazingly, just as the couple were about to enter for their wedding breakfast it stopped. I was in a bit of a dilemma as the guests were seated and we all know what chefs are like, but at Katherine’s request we ran out side for just 5 minutes and managed to capture some beautiful shots that we are sure they will treasure for life.

A fantastic wedding at Langdale Chase Hotel in the lake district with Mel and Rob

Paul Mortimer — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:05:45 +0000

Langdale Chase, in the Lake District, is one of our favourite venues with wonderful views of the lakes and mountains. Even if we are forced inside on those “occasional” wet days in the Lake District, the hotel is full of character and we have lots of areas that we love to use for fantastic shots of our couples. We had the best of both worlds at Mel and Rob’s wedding as you can see….

From the halter neck dress Mel wore, to the sapphire ring she had sewn into it for good luck, everything was beautiful…

As you can see, she looked stunning in her dress and it was a lovely time for mother and daughter to finish off the preparations…

This lovely shot was caught as the bridesmaids were getting ready

Rob, with his two best men and best woman!

A beautiful setting for the ceremony

We managed to get everyone outside for some nice shots

Even when it’s winter we love going down to the lake

A gorgeous one of Mel…

Guess what Mel and Rob did for their honeymoon…
