J&J's chic manor house wedding albums
Not one but two wedding albums for Joelle & James. Why two? Well, they didn’t settle for one wedding; they had two celebrations exactly a year apart and at the same venue – the stunning exclusive use manor house, Rockbeare Manor in Devon. Their first wedding event was severely restricted by Covid rules so it was a small intimate gathering. The second, however was a larger celebration with the family and friends who couldn’t be there for the initial ceremony.
For multi-event weddings, there’s always the temptation to opt for two different wedding album sizes or cover materials and it can work really well. But with both ceremonies held at the same venue, J&J wanted to keep some consistency across both albums choosing the same size and cover. The stunning Dreambooks wedding album featuring a classic white micro leather was the perfect match for their overall wedding style and summer dates – where they had a stunning blue sky for both days! Their albums were finished off with the beautiful clamshell presentation box in matching micro leather and white wood rim for a crisp, clean finish.

WEDDING ALBUM 1
WEDDING ALBUM 1 - THE BRIDE
Beautiful, calm and serene. I kept this spread fairly simple with just four images of the bride in different poses and a mix of close-up and full-body shots. The stunning blue walls in the photos stood out beautifully against a white space background.
WEDDING ALBUM 1 - BRIDE AND DAD
WEDDING ALBUM 1 - NEWLYWED CELEBRATIONS
WEDDING ALBUM 1 - FAMILY PHOTOS
What a backdrop the manor house makes! I love the contrast of the crisp white walls against that stunning blue sky. What a perfect summer wedding! J&J were so lucky to have such a beautiful day and the image of the couple with both sets of parents (the full wedding party!) was the ideal showcase photo to place on it’s own full page.
WEDDING ALBUM 1 - HAVING A BREAK
WEDDING ALBUM 2
WEDDING ALBUM 2 - SETTING THE SCENE
With the two wedding events set in the same venue, I wanted them to have a similar feel and flow. So both wedding albums began with an almost identical photo of J&J in front of Rockbeare Manor. They were so blessed to have stunning sunny weather on both days, it almost feels like it was the same day!
WEDDING ALBUM 2 - THE BRIDE
WEDDING ALBUM 2 - THE BRIDE'S ENTRANCE
The fundamental difference between this and the first wedding is that this featured an outdoor garden ceremony in the venue’s grounds. She and her dad made a stunning entrance walking through the landscaped gardens while the groom looked on.

WEDDING ALBUM 2 - BRIDE AND GROOM PORTRAITS
WEDDING ALBUM 2 - THE SPEECHES
I like to include more photos on these spreads so you can really get a feel for the atmosphere in the room and capture the expressions on the wedding party and guests faces. The Stylish design style tends to feature a focus image on most spreads – in this one I chose a particularly stunning shot of the bride but also featured the best man’s photo fairly prominently as he was the one delivering the speech!
WEDDING ALBUM 2 - FIRST DANCE
WEDDING ALBUM 2 - FIREWORK FINALE
Just two simple photos of the bride and groom watching the wedding fireworks were a perfect finale to the album.
