A Dream Wedding at the Alte Ziegelei in Polling 

Some weddings feel special from the very first moment. And it’s even better when I get to capture a wedding like that right around the corner from where I live. A wonderful, emotional, and stylish wedding at the Alte Ziegelei in Polling, planned with great attention to detail and filled with genuine moments.

An Intimate Start: First Look and Couple Photoshoot

The day began with the first look photoshoot. This is one of my favorite moments on a wedding day. The moment when the bride and groom see each other for the first time is always very special and full of emotion, and here there was an even more special moment, because the son was also included in the first look. That was a truly sweet moment.

Afterward, we took advantage of the beautiful grounds around the Alte Ziegelei and the Klosterhof in Polling for a relaxed couple’s photo shoot. The combination of historic brick and warm natural tones provides the perfect backdrop for natural, elegant, and at the same time lively photos.

An Emotional Non-Religious Wedding Ceremony in the Courtyard

The non-religious wedding ceremony took place in the venue’s idyllic courtyard. Everyone was able to be there, and the atmosphere was warm, personal, and incredibly touching.

There was laughter, tears, and heartfelt applause. A non-religious wedding ceremony always leaves plenty of room for many personal moments, and that was certainly the case here. I’m sure the couple will look back on these moments for the rest of their lives.

Champagne reception & a very special highlight

After the ceremony, the celebration continued with a relaxed champagne reception, delicious hors d’oeuvres, and many heartfelt conversations. These moments are always especially wonderful for me. This is where numerous candid wedding photos of genuine interactions, hugs, and congratulations are captured, and the occasional family photo is seamlessly and effortlessly woven into the day’s flow.

An extraordinary highlight of the wedding was the afternoon tour of the fascinating automotive world at HK Engineering. 

The legendary SL world is impressive not just for car enthusiasts. The iconic Mercedes-Benz models, the elegant ambiance, and the unique aesthetic provided an exciting, stylish addition to the wedding day and, of course, a fantastic backdrop for photos. The groom, a huge car enthusiast, as well as the guests, were absolutely thrilled by this diverse and interesting tour.

Dinner Under String Lights

After a relaxing afternoon came to a close, the evening began with an al fresco dinner under twinkling string lights. Two long tables were beautifully decorated; relaxed conversation and laughter could be heard from every corner. A wonderful Italian-inspired menu was served, accompanied by speeches from the parents and a few perfectly chosen games.

Perfect moments for truly authentic wedding photos full of atmosphere, which will bring those moments back to our hearts for years to come. Memories for eternity.

A lively indoor party

After dinner, the celebration moved indoors. The DJ was already waiting, and the party could begin.

With great music, a lively atmosphere, and a packed dance floor, the party went on well into the night. It’s precisely this contrast between the elegant daytime proceedings and the lively evening atmosphere that makes wedding photography so diverse.

This wedding at the Alte Ziegelei in Polling was, for me, a perfect blend of emotion, style, and individuality. From the intimate first look to the touching outdoor ceremony and the lively celebration, every moment was genuine and full of feeling.
