Emma + Nader | Whitegates Church + Cheshire Polo Club

After sharing the first look into Emma + Nader‘s amazing wedding from late September a couple of weeks ago, I’m delighted to bring the full post here to share their fantastic story in more detail.

The wedding day started with the girls being looked after by Kerry Hormbrey – who did an amazing job of the hair and makeup for the bridal party – at Emma’s parents home on the edge of Whitegates village before heading to the village church of for the wedding ceremony.

The detailing on Emma’s dress was stunning! Complimented perfectly by the elegant bridesmaids gowns.

Whitegates in Cheshire is a really beautiful church and the lighting was fantastic.

It was so incredibly important for Nader to have his father over from Iran, and thankfully after a great deal of bureaucracy he was allowed into the country – and you can see how much it means in the photo above.documentary-style-wedding-photography contemporary-wedding-photography wedding-photojournalist cheshire-wedding-photographers cheshire-polo-club-weddings cheshire-polo-club-marquee-wedding
As a unique touch to the wedding, upon arriving at the marquee at Cheshire Polo Club, the wedding party assembled outside to witness the traditional Persian wedding ceremony, led by Nader’s godmother. persian-wedding-ceremony traditional-persian-wedding-ceremony iranian-wedding-ceremony persian-wedding-photographer candid-wedding-photography-cheshire reactions-wedding-photography polo-club-wedding candid-drinks-reception-photographs modern-creative-wedding-photography reportage-wedding-photographer cheshire-candid-wedding-photography cheshire-contemporary-wedding-photography manchester-contemporary-wedding-photographer

Choosing to have a live band was an inspired decision by Emma + Nader, and Groovey Revolution who cover Manchester and Cheshire are one of the best event covers bands I’ve seen.
