A Beachside Wedding in Rock, Cornwall

By Sarah | Published June 18, 2012

Being a wedding photographer in Cornwall is at its best when shooting a venue by the sea. Laura and Rob were married at St Enodoc Church in Trebetherick, near Rock. This small church nestled into a golf course in the sand dunes off the River Camel (opposite Padstow), was once covered in sand with only the wonky steeple showing.

See this from Wikipedia “from the 16th century to the middle of the 19th century, the church was virtually buried by the dunes and was known locally as “Sinking Neddy” or “Sinkininny Church”. To maintain the tithes required by the church, it had to host services at least once a year, so the vicar and parishioners descended into the sanctuary through a hole in the roof. By 1864 it was finally unearthed and the dunes were finally stabilized”.

Laura and Rob were lucky to have Laura’s parents’ garden as their wedding venue just a stones throw from both the church and nearby Daymer Bay. We spent the day with Rob and Laura and their nearest and dearest and darted out between rain showers for some photos. The speeches were hilarious and the catering absolutely first class – thanks for hosting us we had a great time and it was a pleasure to photograph your wedding!

And by the way … have you ever seen a wedding dress with pockets?!? What a great idea!

Carly and Stephen’s Wedding in Stormy Cornwall

By Sarah | Published May 11, 2012

We love doing wedding photography when Cornwall is looking stormy and atmospheric – alright it may not be what the bride and groom are wishing for but actually for a photographer its great! The clouds are so atmospheric and its much more flattering for portraits than harsh sunlight which creates shadows and shows every single wrinkle …. how’s that for a possible spin on Cornwall’s weather!!

Carly and Stephen chose Polhawn Fort as the venue for their seaside wedding – with its own private beach and exclusive hire options it makes for a very relaxed and unique wedding venue. The clouds hung over the English Channel throughout the entire day and threatened rain – but I’m glad to say they didn’t actually deliver! Instead they just provided a great backdrop and then the sun peeked through just in time for our beach photos to add a little more spark to the photos – thank you weather!

To see the full selection of photographs follow this link . To Carly and Stephen … it was a great pleasure to photograph your wedding – Congratulations! Bear and I wish you all the very best for the future.

With special thanks to all the suppliers who contributed to this lovely wedding:

Venue: Polhawn Fort

Dress: Bejamin Roberts from Bellisima Brides

Hair and Makeup : Bells Brides

Flowers: Carol Ann in association with St Mellion Flowers

Catering: The Round Kitchen

Band: The Drat Pack

String Quartet: Divamento

The day Abby and Alex got married

By Sarah | Published April 27, 2012

Beautiful … that pretty much sums up this wedding for us. It was a total pleasure to photograph this wedding and to spend the day with such a lovely bunch of people. Congratulations Abby and Alex!

Rosteague offers options for both outdoor and indoor civil ceremony and as the weather had been awful in the week leading up to the event Abby and Alex had their fingers crossed for a ceremony in the garden as was their ultimate choice. The weather was on their side – as it approached midday it just got clearer and clearer.

I love the bridal suite where Abby and the girls got ready – it is jam packed with so many great details for photographs. Abby had her nearest and dearest around her all morning and there were plenty of tears as well as laughter. And just take a look at these flowers – I took far too many photos of them!!


Abby and Alex are heading off into the sunset for their honeymoon – well almost! They are going on a round the world trip for a YEAR! They will be spending most of their time in Indonesia, Australia and New Zealand … its a hard life but I suppose someone has to do it! :)

As always we’d like to pass on Abby and Alex’s thanks to all who helped make their wedding day so special …
The venue was Rosteague on The Roseland Peninsula in Cornwall.

An Easter Wedding in Cornwall

By Sarah | Published April 17, 2012

Sal and George were married last week over the Easter Holidays in the beautiful church of St Colan Parish near Newquay. They had a marquee wedding reception at Colan Barton and took a huge beach walk in the afternoon with all of their guests. A truly laid back wedding in beautiful Cornish countryside. Sal and George met at an end-of-finals house party at Warwick University. The proposal was on New Year’s Eve in Montgenevre, on the Franco-Italian border, on top of a mountain whilst on a skiing holiday with friends ( well done George – top marks for that!! ).

With many thanks to those who helped make it such a special day …

Sal’s bouquet by Daisy Roots ( http://www.cornwallecoflorist.co.uk/ ). The bridesmaid flowers were also supplied by Dairy Roots but put together by Sal’s Nanna and Auntie Rita. The flowers in the teacups were wild flowers put together by lots of female members of the family!

The cakes were made by George’s mum, Sandra – amazingly talented but sorry folks she only bakes for family members!

Dress from White Rose, College Green Bridal, Bristol. Suits from Moss Bros, Lingfield Morning Suits. Rings from Cornish Stone Company, Newquay.
Sal says “We had lots of help from family and friends to make decorations and decorate the marquee. Special mention to my bridesmaid Nicola Hudson for making the gorgeous jars hanging in the trees and lining the carpeted entrance.”
So now all that remains is for us to wish Sal and George all the very best for the future – it was a total pleasure to be part of your wedding! Much love, Sarah and Bear Falugo of Green Photographic.
