Rhiannon and Anthony share their first dance in the elegant reception room at Eastwood Park. Surrounded by family and friends, the newlyweds smile as chandeliers glow above and guests watch with joy and love.

Rhiannon and Anthony’s wedding at Eastwood Park was one of those days that just had everything. From a surprise Mustang arrival for the groom to a totally unexpected firework display in the distance (courtesy of someone else’s party!), the day had such a fun, relaxed energy from start to finish. The whole vibe was laid-back and full of heart, with loads of laughter and a few little surprises thrown in along the way.

I’ve got to say, it was a real pleasure photographing this one, and not just because of the views across the Vale. Rhiannon and Anthony were just brilliant to work with, and it was lovely to see how much thought and warmth they poured into their day.

A Groom, A Mustang, and A Brilliant Surprise

Anthony walks with his groomsmen outside Eastwood Park, all wearing grey suits with pink ties and boutonnieres. Behind them, the groom’s surprise Ford Mustang sets the scene for a stylish, relaxed start to the wedding celebrations.

One of my favourite moments of the morning was seeing Anthony’s face when he clocked the Ford Mustang waiting for him outside. It was a proper surprise, and you could see just how much he loved it. Those reactions are always some of the best to photograph, totally unfiltered and full of joy.

A Ceremony with Heart and Humour

The ceremony itself was full of emotion, but also had a really lovely balance of fun and laughter throughout. You could tell Rhiannon and Anthony were soaking in every second of it, and the room felt genuinely full of support. It had that rare mix of relaxed energy and real connection that makes the moment feel truly personal.

I wasn’t expecting to see fireworks that night, but apparently, neither were the couple! Somewhere off in the distance, another celebration sent a few rockets into the sky, and we all paused for a second to enjoy it. It was a totally random little bonus, but it made the night feel even more memorable.

A Family Celebration Through and Through

It wasn’t just about the two of them, Noah was front and centre, and it made everything feel that bit more special. There were so many sweet family moments throughout the day, and you could really feel how loved and supported they are. I always enjoy capturing that extra layer of connection when a wedding’s built around family.

All the Best for What’s Ahead

Before the night wrapped up, I had a quick chat with Rhiannon about her business, Aster Beauty, and I couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead for her. The day wasn’t just a wedding, it felt like the start of a new chapter for both of them. And with a honeymoon in Italy on the cards, I’m sure the next bit will be just as full of joy (and a lot of pizza).

Conclusion:

Eastwood Park was the perfect setting for a day like this… full of life, laughter, and moments that mattered. Rhiannon and Anthony, thank you both for letting me be part of such a special celebration. Wishing you and Noah all the love and adventure the next chapter brings.
