A snowy elopement at Whitsand Bay Fort in Cornwall - Connie and Richard



Married couple about to kiss in a golf cart in the snow at their Whitsand Bay Fort wedding in Cornwall

Connie and Richard chose the picturesque and super cosy Whitsand Bay Fort for their elopement. I'm pretty sure that Whitsand Bay Fort is my favorite venue. I have had the pleasure of photographing 3 weddings here and have 4 more coming up this year, YAY!. Remember Lucy and Mark's windy wedding and Caroline and Charlie's November wedding? Each wedding here is so different and amazing and each time I have been the ceremony has taken place in a different spot. The versatility of the venue is one of the many reasons why I think Whitsand Bay Fort is one of the best wedding venues in cornwall. No matter the weather (Even snow in this case) the lovely staff (shoutout to Claudia, Dave, Jane and lovely bar and kitchen staff) work their little bum's off to ensure that your wedding is awesome and totally unique to you.  

Oh man, this day!!!! and this couple!!!... A first look, golf cart rides in the snow, views of the Cornish coast, adorable dogs in bowties, happy tears, a cosy humanist ceremony conducted by the lovely Jo Hawes with an actual tieing of the knot, AC/DC playing and a sit down meal all at one table. I loved so many moments from this day and I smiled so much during the day that my face ached really badly on my way home.

Connie and Richard, Thank you so much for choosing me to have the privilege of witnessing and documenting your super awesome Whitsand Bay Fort Elopement.
