Kirkley Hall Wedding Fair: Katie Byram Photography

I was honoured to be invited along to showcase my work at the Kirkley Hall Wedding Showcase, where suppliers are handpicked to attend and display their work,  as they are recommended by the venue. 

I took along my camera to get some images of the day and was so happy to finally take a few photos of those fab light up letters from Coco Luminaire! 

Here is my stand, which I proudly displayed some of my new albums and work on. 

The above amazing flower displays were from Floral Quarter, in Gosforth. 

These letters are available to hire from Coco Luminaire.

The cakes above are from House of Cakes, based in Morpeth... Sandra actually has show cakes you can hire for your wedding - what a unique idea! 

The above cake pops are from Dream Pop Bakery. 

By Wendy unveiled their amazing Gatsby themed stationery at the wedding fair.

Here's Caitlin from By Wendy Bespoke Stationery doing a fab job!

The next wedding showcase at Kirkley Hall will be in October.

Langley Castle Wedding Photoshoot with Simply Bows & Chair Covers, Adam Prest Flowers and By Wendy Stationery.

Back in January, I had the pleasure of being part of this lovely winter photoshoot, inspired by the medevial setting of Langley Castle. Langley Castle is situated in beautiful grounds near to Hexham, and is an ideal setting for a grand wedding day.

Kristy from Simply Bows wanted to create some wonderful inspiration for her brides and grooms for their castle-setting weddings. She chose sumptuous gold and cream colours to bring out the room colours and stone work, and Wendy created some simple but beautiful table stationery to compliment her choices. 

Adam Prest came up with three completely different to each other table centre pieces, two of which were more unusual – one a large tree branch in a glass vase, featuring glass baubles with tealights inside, hanging from the branches. There were also yellow tulips and birds perching on the branches. 

His other unusual piece was an inspired choice for winter weddings: Snow drops and moss placed around a glass bowl, the bowl had a snow/ice effect with floating candles. A really quirky table centrepiece and a great talking point.

Kristy wanted to show her brides that there is a lot more choice available with chair sashes, and they definitely don't need to be all the same colour organza bows. She had a wonderful flocked cream material, which went beautifully, and on another table, shimmering gold bands centred with a circular brooch.

Wendy, of By Wendy Bespoke Stationery created some stunning table stationery including menus, place names and table numbers. Her designs complemented the decor wonderfully. 

I really enjoyed the photoshoot, as well as all the stunning tables to photograph, Kristy and Adam kept me entertained with anecdotes and stories whilst I was working, and my tummy was aching with laughter at times!

Thanks for inviting me to be part of your shoot!
