Carenna and Gareth's Wedding Photographs at Boreham House

On Saturday Essex Wedding Photographers CourtOnCamera had the great pleasure photographing Carenna and Gareth's Wedding at Our Lady of Grace & St Teresa of Avila Catholic Church and Boreham House Wedding Venue near Chelmsford.

Throughout the day, the Toastmaster was my good friend Richard Palmer, the Disco in the evening was provided by Classic Nomad

In the 1930's Boreham House and the surrounding 3000 acres was owned by Henry Ford.

I think the weather surprised everyone - it was glorious!

Richard (with his red coat always on) was on hand to look after Carenna and Gareth throughout the day, he was especially welcome arriving with a timely drink of iced water - served of course in Crystal glasses.

Gareth and Carenna Pre-Wedding Shoot

One of the delights about being an Essex Wedding Photographer is that one catches a glimpse of the sheer scale of the organisation and planning undertaken by the Brides, Grooms and most importantly Mums'.

This week I met Gareth, Carenna and Ann (Carenna's Mum) for the planning meeting and pre-wedding shoot at their home in Chingford. Carenna and Gareth are getting married later this month at Boreham House, with my good friend Richard Palmer as the Toastmaster.

CourtOnCamera are the Wedding Photographers in Essex of choice.

 

To Quote "In the 1930s Boreham House and 3000 acres (12 km˛) of land surrounding it was bought by car magnate Henry Ford. In addition to using the house as a school for training Ford tractor mechanics, the company's British chairman, Lord Perry, established Fordson Estates Limited there and founded the Henry Ford Institute of Agricultural Engineering, an agricultural college which continues to occupy the house. The house also served as the temporary home for the National College of Agricultural Engineering in 1962. This moved to Silsoe, Bedfordshire as Silsoe College later joining with Cranfield University. The Silsoe campus closed at the end of 2007.

Boreham remained relatively small until the mid-1970s when a programme of house and shop building increased its size significantly"

It is now an exciting and brand new Wedding Venue in Essex

I am photographing Carrena and Gareth's wedding here in October
