Coniston Hotel Wedding Photography
We had a great day on Saturday photographing Maria and Dean’s wedding in Otley, and afterwards at The Coniston at Coniston Cold, near Skipton in the Yorkshire Dales. The Coniston Hotel is set in the Yorkshire Dales, with glorious views across a beautiful lake.
Maria and her bridesmaids got ready near to the church in Otley, and we met the lads at Our Lady and all Saints Catholic Church in Otley about half an hour before the service was due to start.
The bridesmaid looked fab in shamrock green bridesmaids dresses. Maria’s family is Irish, and there was a strong Irish theme throughout the day, including a Guinness glass shaped cake also decorated with shamrocks.
We spent a short while with the couple by the picturesque lake at the hotel, before they joined their guests for the afternoon reception.
There was a slight break from tradition during the speeches, as Dean had two best men and his dad also said a few words. Thanks were expressed to the venue, who did a magnificent job. Not only did the room look gorgeous, but Vicky was brilliant at keeping the wedding to time. The first dance at 9pm was to Rock cover band Helter Skelter.
I have added a preview of the photos from the day below, and a slideshow preview of more images at
