Amber & Scott’s Wedding Gallery.
Amber and Scott’s wedding was a day to remember, blending the timeless charm of Sherburn in Elmet with the modern comforts of the Holiday Inn in Garforth, Leeds. From a historic church ceremony to a lively reception, their day was filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments.
The Historic All Saints Church in Sherburn in Elmet
Nestled in the picturesque village of Sherburn in Elmet, All Saints Church is a stunning venue steeped in history. Dating back over 900 years, this Grade I-listed church is a masterpiece of medieval architecture. Its ancient stone walls, intricate stained glass windows, and tranquil churchyard provided a serene and inspiring setting for Amber and Scott’s vows.
Sherburn in Elmet itself is a charming village with roots tracing back to Anglo-Saxon times. Once a royal residence and later an important market town, the village boasts a rich heritage. Its cobbled streets, historic buildings, and close-knit community made it the perfect backdrop for a wedding steeped in tradition.
Amber looked radiant as she walked down the aisle, her dress a beautiful blend of classic elegance and modern sophistication. Scott, standing at the altar with a mixture of nerves and excitement, couldn’t hide his joy as he saw his bride. The ceremony was heartfelt and moving, with every detail reflecting the couple’s deep connection and commitment to one another.
Capturing Moments at All Saints Church
As their photographer, it was an honour to document the moments that made Amber and Scott’s day so special. The church’s historic charm added a unique texture to the photographs, from the grandeur of the nave to the intimate corners of the churchyard. The play of light filtering through the stained glass windows created a magical atmosphere, making every shot feel like a timeless work of art.
After the ceremony, we took a stroll through the village for some portrait shots. The historic streets and quaint cottages provided a stunning backdrop, perfectly complementing the elegance of the newlyweds.
