I was so looking forward to this woodland Boho wedding. When I met up with Alex & Joey and they told me about their plans for their day I got goosebumps and excited like a kid again. Joey was planning to arrive on her horse, they were getting married in the woods just up from an abbey and they were having the party in the barn on the farm where they live.
The wedding took place in the woods on the grounds of Llanthony Priory (Welsh: Priordy Llanddewi Nant Hodni) is a partly ruined former Augustinian priory in the secluded Vale of Ewyas, a steep sided once glaciated valley within the Black Mountains area of the Brecon Beacons National Park in Monmouthshire, south east Wales. It lies seven miles north of Abergavenny on an old road to Hay-on-Wye at Llanthony. The priory ruins lie to the west of the prominent Hatterall Ridge, a limb of the Black mountains.
I don’t think I need to explain about how the day went. I have picked a selection of pictures from the day that hopefully gives you an idea of how amazing and cool this wedding was. This is just around 140 images from 977 in the full gallery and I would love to show you them all. I am honoured to be able able to photograph weddings at some amazing locations around Wales and want to thank Joey & Alex for inviting me to be part of their incredible adventure and I am sure there will plenty more adventures to come.
