A Perfect Essex Wedding Captured by 3 Cheers Media
Some wedding days seem to capture everything we imagine a summer wedding should be. Warm sunshine, a gentle breeze, beautiful styling and plenty of emotion. Ella and Paul’s wedding at the stunning Friern Manor in Essex on June 8th, 2025 was one of those days. With their two boys by their side and surrounded by family and friends, this was a celebration filled with love, laughter and unforgettable memories.
Friern Manor – An Essex Venue With Timeless Charm
Set within beautifully landscaped gardens, Friern Manor is one of Essex’s most popular wedding venues and a place I’m proud to be a recommended supplier. With its elegant architecture, sweeping lawns and dedicated ceremony spaces, it provides the perfect backdrop for couples wanting a day that feels both intimate and grand. From the ceremony room through to the evening reception, every space looked immaculate and full of character, enhanced by Ella and Paul’s thoughtful bronze, cream and navy colour scheme.

The Morning – Calm, Fun and Full of Anticipation
Paul spent the morning on site at Friern Manor with his groomsmen. There was a relaxed atmosphere as they got ready, fixed ties and buttonholes, and shared a few laughs. Before the ceremony began, the lads even had time to head to the bar for a quick drink as excited guests started to arrive.
Meanwhile, Ella was making her entrance in style. Two stunning vintage wedding cars pulled up, carrying the bride and her bridesmaids to the venue. The timing was perfect, adding a touch of glamour just before the ceremony began.
A Ceremony Full of Emotion
The ceremony was one of those occasions where love filled every corner of the room. With their two boys close by, Ella and Paul exchanged vows that left more than a few eyes glistening. It was an emotional and heartfelt moment that set the tone for the rest of the day.
As the newlyweds walked out to a shower of confetti, the celebrations truly began. Guests spilled out into the gardens for drinks, laughter and photos in the sunshine, making the most of the warm June weather.
Entertainment and Golden Hour Magic
One of the highlights of the afternoon was the magician who kept everyone entertained with incredible tricks and light-hearted fun. It created a buzzing, joyful atmosphere that carried right through to the evening.
As the sun dipped lower, we had the opportunity to take Ella and Paul out into the gardens during golden hour. This is always one of my favourite times to film, and on this day the light was just perfect. The cinematic shots of the couple together, framed by soft sunlight and the beauty of Friern Manor’s grounds, became some of my favourite footage of the whole wedding season.
Evening Celebrations
The evening reception was full of energy and joy. Guests gathered inside for dancing and celebrations, while Ella and Paul took to the dancefloor for their first dance. With twirls, smiles and the love of family and friends surrounding them, it was the perfect ending to a perfect day.
A True Celebration of Love and Family
From start to finish, Ella and Paul’s wedding at Friern Manor was everything you’d want from a summer wedding. Beautiful styling, a stunning venue, heartfelt moments and a couple who were an absolute joy to film. It was an honour to capture their story and I’m so pleased to share this film as part of my portfolio as a recommended supplier at Friern Manor.
