Cindy and Robert celebrated a country-themed wedding at the picturesque Gibside Chapel followed by a full-filled reception at Derwent Manor, captured by RGMphoto.
The couple loves the countryside and outdoors and wanted a special day that captured this. “With our love of the great outdoors, we wanted a theme that matched this. Plus, we also wanted our dog ‘Ted’ to be part of our day therefore needed to consider a venue where dogs were allowed.”
“Dogs are allowed at Gibside, so it was ideal for us. Derwent manor carried on the country theme and was also dog friendly therefore was a perfect place for us to book for our reception. We wanted our day to be filled with the things that we love and to reflect our characters.”
“We are members of the National Trust and Gibside has always been a favorite place of ours. I would highly recommend this venue. We could not recommend Derwent Manor enough. We fell in love with the look of the hotel as soon as we saw it as it was everything we were looking for to match our country theme and plus it was dog friendly.”
“A friend at work recommended Ross from RGMphoto and so I checked his website out and loved the style of images and his work. We arranged to meet with him and he was easy going and listened to what we wanted rather than telling us what we should have, helping us match a suitable photo package around the wedding day we envisaged.”
Advice for other brides and grooms?
“Stick with your plan of what you want for your wedding day, not what you think everyone else would want.”
