Lydia and Daisy's Marquee Wedding in Canterbury

Lydia and Daisy held their wedding at Lydia’s Nan’s private farm on the outskirts of Canterbury. Tying the knot officially in the week at the local registry office, the couple held an emotional service in the stunning gardens of this farmhouse, with Lydia’s brother acting as the registrar.

The property has been used as a wedding venue for generations in the family, just adding to the emotions of this fantastic day (there were a lot of tears!).

Following the service, these guys held their reception in the gardens, with Italian streetfood being served to the guests. When it comes to these speeches, despite photographing a large number of weddings, I have never seen so much emotion! The tears, the belly laughs (particularly thanks to Daisy’s brother’s epic speech) and more tears!.

As the sun started to set, we explored the wider grounds, including a local orchard and cornfield, to capture some golden hour portraits.

Matt is amazing!

My wife and I booked Matt to be the photographer for our wedding and we’re so glad that we did! Matt was absolutely amazing. He was so professional, polite and easy to work with. He went the extra mile to make sure we got the perfect pictures and we absolutely did. He captured the vibe and energy of the wedding perfectly. We didn’t want many formal photos and wanted the majority of the photos to be candid. He did this to an absolute T! Matt didn’t pressure us to pose or be anyway. The photos we have are so natural and exactly what we wanted.

Thank you so much for capturing our day Matt and we would recommend you to anyone!
