Plas Maenan Country House - Real Life Wedding

A big thank you to Tony of Tony Fanning Photography for sending us his real life wedding images.

This wedding took place at the beautiful Plas Maenan Country House. Plas Maenan Country House is a restored Edwardian mansion situated in the Conwy Valley, North Wales and is available exclusively for your wedding.

Tony Fanning is based in Colwyn Bay, North Wales and covers North Wales and the North West. Tony describes himself as "a husband, a father and a chocaholic!" - we like his style! His photography style is contemporary and relaxed.




Top Tip: Check out the bride's footwear! Wedges are so much more comfortable for a full day of standing on your feet - yet still give you the height and the glamour you desire.

Make your Marquee Standout with Marquee Art

Wow! That's exactly what I said when I received some literature from MarqueeArt a company who have designed huge canvases that can be attached to marquee walls to make a marquee look totally different to how you would expect it to look.

These marquee canvas walls are available to buy or to hire and the company offers a bespoke service as well as a having 'off the shelf' designs.
