An Outdoor Wedding Ceremony | Pennsylvania Castle, Portland | Kelly & Matt
Kelly & Matt had the first outdoor wedding of the year at Pennsylvania Castle since the venue has re-opened. The Penn, as the locals call it is set on the cliff tops of the Isle of Portland, with expansive views of the sea. A wonderful setting for Kelly & Matt's relaxed outdoor ceremony set within the castle gardens.
We captured the setting as Kelly and her Bridesmaids were getting ready inside. Guests made their way into the gardens, taking in the views and exploring the grounds as we all awaited a first glimpse of the Bridesmaids and Kelly, who made their entrance through the gardens. You could hear Kelly giggling before she appeared!
The grey clouds cleared as the couple said their vows to one another. I loved the expressions on Kelly's face throughout the ceremony, both her and Matt were extremely excited! Kelly & Matt had their reception in a marquee, which was set up in their friends back garden. I love garden weddings as they are so intimate and relaxed. The marquee was decorated with pink roses in glass domes & bird cages, buttons were sprinkled on the tables and seeds were placed for guests to take home. I especially liked the Cheese Cake, complete with pickles & chutney as a savory alternative to your usual wedding cake. We left the couple to enjoy the band in the evening and party into the small hours.
