Kendra & Martin's Wedding - York Maze

Wedding Photography York Maze

It was a journey south for me for Kendra & Martins wedding, with perfect sunshine landing on the grounds of Sherburn in Elmet Parish Church. As I arrived at Kendra’s home, I found friends and family working and rushing around to make sure Kendra was ready for her day ahead. I could feel the excitement from everyone there and knew it was going to be an amazing day. 

As Kendra walked downstairs and out in to the open, I could see the overwhelming look on her face as she realised that this was her big day. Trying to hold back her tears, Kendra made her way across and up the long path to the Parish Church where she couldn’t hold back anymore, shedding tears of joy in the company of her family. With everyone so excited, they supported Kendra along with her Father bringing them inside the church and down the aisle, with a nervous but composed Martin waiting at the end. 

After the wedding ceremony we all made our way to the York Maze, a perfect outdoor and indoor venue for the newly weds and their guests. One of the main attractions of the day was the bouncy castle style dome out in the open. There’s no other way to explain than to see the photo below! Our videographer, Dominic, handed his prized possessions over to Martin where he filmed himself bouncing up and down on the inflatable dome before Kendra joined in with the fun-filled antics. Everyone was screaming with laughter in what must have been the most fun and unique moments of any wedding so far. 

Shortly afterwards, everyone was gifted the best speeches I’ve seen in a long time. Everyone filled the room with their original stories that were both heartwarming and outstandingly hilarious, including a surprise appearance of the ‘vuvuzela’ which was used by one of the best men sporting a Harry Hill style comedy act. 

As the night drew near to a close, guests were ushered in to the dancing room where Martin got to show off his newly learnt dance moves. Both Martin & Kendra strutted their demonstrating how it should be done. Kendra found AND kept her stride, remaining on the dance floor allowing for the most amazing lighting to fall on her dress, creating perfect dynamic shots that brought out every detail in the final photographs.

I was very lucky to be part of their day, especially to have the privilege to experience the fun and games at York Maze. Thank you to Kendra and Martin for allowing me to be with you on your big day, I wish you all the very best for the future.
