Two Little Boys at Wedding
Two little boys at wedding in Bryngarw House, Bridgend, South Wales towards the end of 2008.
Although Silver Birch Photography is based in Bridgend the lack of quality wedding venues in the area attribute to most of our wedding commissions being carried out in the Cardiff, Newport, Monmouthshire and westcountry areas. Bryngarw House is one of the better wedding venues in the borough of Bridgend – the other being the Coed-y-Mwstwr Hotel near Coychurch, Bridgend which is probably one of my most frequently covered venues during the year.
I am often asked by clients which is my favourite wedding venue. This is a very difficult question as I cover the whole of the UK and also offer a few overseas commissions during the year. My favourite wedding venues in Wales for larger weddings would probably be (in no particular order) : Llansantffraed Court, Monmouthshire. Penrice Estate, Oxwich. Coed-y-Mwstwr Hotel, Bridgend. Glen yr Afon House, Usk. Miskin Manor, Llantrisant. Bryngarw House, Bridgend. Caerphilly Castle. Fonmon Castle. The Orangery, Margam Park. The New House Country Hotel, Cardiff and Tredegar House, Gwent.
I would also consider (for smaller weddings) : The Newbridge Inn, near Usk. The West House Country Hotel, Llantwit Major and the Fig Tree at Llanarthney.
Always remember that the local authority and national trust run venues such as the Orangery at Margam Park and also Bryngarw House, Bridgend usually offer better value for money, although because of this are usually booked well in advance for weekend weddings during the summer months.

) to place on outdoor benches or low walls before seating the bride and groom. I also have two pair of boots – one for the bride, and another for the groom to wear while walking across wet and muddy areas – these shots look great (especially if you can get the groom to carry the bride)
