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!

We had a lovely day with Samantha and Geryn for their marriage at the ever popular Greehill Hotel, near Wigton, Carlisle, in November. I have enjoyed meeting up with them when we could over the last year or so, but as Sam and Geryn are both in the army, it was difficult enough trying to meet just one of them, never mind both together! Everything on the day went amazingly well and we genuinely enjoyed spending such a special time with them. You are a lovely couple and we hope you have a great life together.

The ground was a bit wet with it being winter, luckily Geryn is a gentleman!
