Merrydale Manor Wedding Photography – A Rainy Summer Celebration
Summer weddings in Cheshire often bring the promise of sunshine, but sometimes nature has other plans. At Merrydale Manor, one of Cheshire’s most luxurious wedding venues, rain doesn’t dampen the magic – it simply adds to the romance.
Embracing the Rain at Merrydale Manor
Merrydale Manor is known for its breathtaking grounds, elegant ceremony spaces, and exclusive setting, making it a dream location for any couple. Even when the summer rain made an unexpected appearance, the stunning indoor spaces and the couple’s incredible attitude turned this wedding into a truly unforgettable day.
Stunning Portraits with a Dramatic Touch
Rainy wedding days provide a unique opportunity for creative and atmospheric photography. The soft light from an overcast sky created a dreamy, cinematic feel for the portraits. We embraced the reflections from puddles, used the lush greenery as a backdrop, and even captured some romantic umbrella shots to showcase the couple’s love story in a magical way.
The Ceremony – Intimate and Emotional
Held in Merrydale Manor’s luxurious ceremony room, the couple exchanged heartfelt vows surrounded by family and friends. The candlelit setting and elegant floral arrangements added to the warm, intimate ambiance, proving that a little rain only enhances the romance of the day.
A Celebration to Remember
The wedding reception was a vibrant and joyous affair, filled with laughter, incredible speeches, and some unforgettable dance moves. The couple’s first dance, lit by twinkling fairy lights and reflected on the rain-kissed terrace, was a breathtaking moment that captured the essence of their love story.
Why Rainy Weddings Are Just as Beautiful
As a wedding photographer, I always remind couples that the weather is just another part of their unique story. Rain brings drama, reflection, and an undeniable sense of romance that can make for some of the most incredible images. With the right mindset and a talented photography team, a rainy wedding day can be just as magical as a sunny one.
