Vale Country Club - Sian & Stephen | North Wales Wedding Photographer

Sian & Steven's wedding at Vale Country Club in North Wales was an incredible celebration from start to finish. For a late October wedding, the weather couldn't have been better, with beautiful autumn light, stunning countryside views and a fantastic atmosphere throughout the day.

Nestled beneath the spectacular Clwydian Range, Vale Country Club is a beautiful countryside wedding venue, offering epic views, peaceful surroundings and an incredible backdrop for natural wedding photography. With its combination of rustic charm and open countryside, it's a fantastic setting for a wedding at any time of year.

Wedding Morning at Vale Country Club

The morning started in the new Hen Hut, where Sian was getting ready surrounded by family and friends. There was plenty of laughter and excitement throughout the preparations, with hair by Molly Chadda and makeup by Look Fabulous by Sinead.

Sian's dress from Hugo & Elliot looked incredible, complemented perfectly by the flowers from Ivy's Florist in Abergele. Following the finishing touches, there were some brilliant reactions during the dress reveals with the bridal party, before Sian's dad got his first look.

Meanwhile, Steven and the groomsmen were getting ready over at the Shepherd's Hut, looking sharp in suits from NEXT. With buttonholes sorted and a few relaxed group photographs captured, everyone was ready for the ceremony.

Wedding Ceremony at Vale Country Club

The ceremony took place inside Vale Country Club, with live music from Sam Olyott welcoming guests and creating a fantastic atmosphere.

From the entrance through to the vows, rings and first kiss, the ceremony was full of genuine emotion and memorable moments. Following the register signing, there was time for photographs with both mums as witnesses and the boys before everyone headed outside.

With the Clwydian Range providing an incredible backdrop, the confetti photographs and main group shot were a brilliant way to kick off the celebrations.

Drinks Reception & Autumn Wedding Photography

With the weather on our side, guests made the most of the beautiful surroundings during the drinks reception, accompanied by another fantastic acoustic set from Sam Olyott.

We headed off for a short couple shoot, making the most of the lake, autumn colours and countryside views around Vale Country Club. The soft October light was perfect for relaxed, natural portraits without taking Sian & Steven away from their guests for too long.

The afternoon was packed with personal touches and plenty of laughs, including "the race" to a bottle of Prosecco!

There was also plenty of time for group photographs, candid moments and catching up with family and friends before heading inside for the wedding breakfast.

Wedding Breakfast, Speeches & Evening Celebrations

The wedding breakfast was followed by some fantastic speeches, with plenty of laughter and brilliant reactions around the room.

As the afternoon light began to fade, we managed to make the most of the beautiful autumn surroundings for a few more relaxed portraits before the evening celebrations got underway.

The evening included a sparkler moment, cake cutting with a fantastic creation from Café Cariad at St Kentigern Hospice, and the all-important first dance.

A Fantastic Autumn Wedding in North Wales

From the morning preparations to the evening celebrations, Sian & Steven's wedding was packed with genuine moments, fantastic people and plenty of laughter.

The glorious late-October weather made the most of Vale Country Club's incredible location beneath the Clwydian Range, providing the perfect backdrop for natural, relaxed wedding photography.
