Castell Coch wedding photography

Castell Coch is regularly voted by the public as their favourite building in Wales. It is an 19th-century Gothic Revival castle built above the village of Tongwynlais. The first castle on the site was built by the Normans after 1081 to protect the newly conquered town of Cardiff.

Rhian and Liam’s wedding day was filled with so much love and joy. They got married in December at Castle Coch in Cardiff. The day itself was as rainy as it could be in December, but we were fortunate and had around 1 hour of “dry” weather to have some beautiful photos by the castle and Fforest Fawr nearby. It was also the Winter Solstice wedding, there was the longest night of the year ahead, but what a meaning it has – it is the last darkest day of the year, meaning the return of the sun and the coming spring!
