A Wonderful Wedding at The Maynard

Being the photographer at Gemma and Adam’s wedding at The Maynard was an absolute treat! The Maynard is located in the village of Grindleford in the Hope Valley. One of the best known hotels in the Derbyshire Peak District, it  makes a wonderful wedding venue.

Adam was driven to the wedding in style by his best man in a Reliant Robin. Yes, that Reliant Robin took the climb all the way from Sheffield in its stride!  Gemma looked amazing, the weather held out and The Maynard looked after everyone beautifully, just as they always do. One thing about Gemma and Adam’s wedding was that, apart from the fact that they both looked so good (that dress was a stunner!), there was a wonderful warmth to the whole occasion.

A really, really lovely couple, the nicest group of family and friends you could imagine – the greatest ingredients for a perfect wedding. My aim is always to not only show how it looked, but also to try and capture what the day really felt like, the emotion and the atmosphere. Here are just a few from the day which I hope go some way to conveying just what a special day this was.
