Pennyhill Park - Wedding Photoshoot
Wedding/Bridal Makeup - Pennyhill Park Hotel
Pennyhill Park Hotel, London Road, Bagshot, GU19 5EU
Firstly, WOW WOW WOW! If you ever have the chance to go to Pennyhill Park in Surrey …. DO NOT hesitate!
When you head down the tree lined driveway to the hotel, you immediately know you’re in for a luxury treat. The hotel don’t often open their doors to a styled shoot, if ever! So, when we were offered the chance … we jumped at it and took some our favourite suppliers along with us.
We had the BEST DAY in the most beautiful setting! I mean, how lucky are we to call this work?
I arrived at 9:15am and walked into reception. I was greeted by the most friendly staff who ushered me up into ‘Sandown’, an amazing space for bridal preparations on the wedding day. The room is full of natural light, super spacious, two double beds, a view over the pool and a bath tub to dieeeeeeeee for … complete with TV. Dreamy!!
At one point, one of the lovely staff members came in to ask if we needed anything. I politely asked for a robe and a cocktail, so I could lounge out by the pool and also a year’s Pennyhill Park spa membership…. as I’m sure you’d have already guessed, I was told no. Don’t ask, don’t get right?! Haha!
We had the DREAM TEAM for the day :
Bridal Makeup - ME!
Hair - Sophie Frank
Photography - Lauren Mitchell
Flowers - Steph Lovell
Wedding Dress - Tilly Mint
Videographer - Chloe at Euphoria Films
Cake - Sassy's Sugar Doughnuts
Models - Alessha and Marv
We were SO lucky with the weather, it had rained all week and we expected much of the same, we even prepared with a bridal umbrella! However, the temperate hit 22 degrees and it was glorious. The perfect day for our photoshoot!
Alessha was straight in the makeup chair, she was lovely and sun kissed from her recent getaway for her birthday. So, I decided to enhance her already golden skin with hints of bronze and golds on the eyes and a soft peachy lip - she looked absolutely beautiful. The most gorgeous soft glam bridal makeup, a very popular choice with my brides.
Then, she was ready for hair! Sophie is a magician when it comes to hair and for Alessha she created a stunning bridal mermaid braid (with Gypsophila) … it was simply stunning. She is a real life Rapunzel!
Alessha got into the gorgeous wedding dress lent to us by Tilly Mint Bridal Shop, Fleet and Marv looked very smart in his black suit. We were ready to go!
We headed downstairs and started shooting … the photos really do speak for themselves!!
If you’re considering Pennyhill Park as a wedding venue, it truly is magical - a top, prestigious wedding venue. And, if you’re on the hunt for a friendly bunch of talented wedding suppliers … look no further!
