Port Lympne Wedding

James was an incredible photographer

He was really helpful and supportive leading up to the event with a video call to check in. On the day, he blends into the background, getting candid photos, capturing all the best moments. He was friendly but professional. We couldn’t be happier

Port Lympne Hotel & Reserve is such a cool place for a wedding, very unique for a Kent Wedding Venue. Funny story – I hadn’t photographed there before, and while I was there, I got another enquiry! This place is huge, with all sorts of animals and even a safari. And guess what? Every wedding booking includes a safari for you and your guests!

Let me take you through the awesome wedding day of Allenis and Chris. The day started in the hotel, where Allenis was getting ready with her bridesmaids. The room had this amazing mural with animals all around, perfect since the venue has its own zoo and safari park. Everyone was super excited and having a great time. Allenis looked stunning in her white dress, and Chris was sharp in his suit. They looked amazing together, ready to start their new adventure as a married couple.

The ceremony was held outside in a cute gazebo. It was such a lovely spot for Allenis and Chris to say their vows. A family member officiated the ceremony, making it extra special and personal. After the ceremony, the reception took place in the new Orangery. The decorations were gorgeous, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. During the outdoor drinks reception, a string quartet played lovely music, making the evening feel even more special.

One of the best parts of the day was the safari tour around the reserve after the drinks reception. Everyone loved seeing the giraffes, and there was a funny moment when a gorilla threw some poop, which had everyone laughing. It was such a unique and fun experience for all the guests. Allenis’s dad gave a fantastic speech, full of charm and wit. For their first dance, they had a live band playing R&B and pop hits. The band was incredible, and everyone had a blast dancing the night away. The Moroccan-themed area in the hotel was perfect for taking portraits and photos of the bridal party. Its vibrant decor added a unique touch to the wedding pictures, capturing the fun and excitement of the day.

All in all, Allenis and Chris’s wedding at Port Lympne Hotel & Reserve was a day full of love, laughter, and unforgettable moments. If you’re looking for a wedding venue with something extra special, Port Lympne is definitely worth considering. I’d love to share the photos now! They’ll really bring this story to life. I love being a Hythe Wedding Photographer.
