Hatfield Place, Hatfield Peveral, Essex

This was my first visit to Hatfield Place and what a huge surprise! I first met with my bride Rosie in the Bridal Suite. and I was completely blown away! The first thing I set my eyes on were the dressing tables with mirrors in front, all in a row. I cannot tell you what a dream that is for a hair and makeup artist as we often have to create a make shift area with extension leads. Real consideration had taken place when this cottage was designed, it was just the perfect setting for the bride and her suppliers. That room was just the beginning….I could not help but just walk around, in absolute awe at the standard of this cottage. I then went upstairs to find the most incredible room boasting a beautiful bedroom and bathroom, sheer luxury. This was before I even went into Hatfield Place….which again did not disappoint. What an absolutely hidden gem! Brides….just go and check it out!

I had such a lovely morning with Rosie and her bridal party, it was real fun, which I think you will see from my photos below. Rosies playlist had everyone singing and dancing while getting ready. It was a morning I wont forget in a hurry. I even asked Rosie to send me her playlist which I now have on regularly in my kitchen. Thank you Rosie for a fabulous morning full of fun. You looked incredible! I worked with makeup by Jaimie Attfield, who is always a joy to be around.
