If you are looking for a Cotswold luxury and elegant wedding venue, you should visit this place. Grittleton House is an exclusive, privately owned, country house wedding venue set within 35 acres of beautiful gardens and grounds, with a choice of stunning rooms to accommodate all wedding parties.

I photographed their getting ready bridal photos at Grittleton House, before heading off to their wedding ceremony at beautiful Malmesbury Abbey, a stunning historical church that was built in the 12th century. After the ‘I do’s’ and fun confetti shot, we headed back to Grittleton for the reception. The reception room looked absolutely beautiful. Juliet and Tom are very creative couple and made their own, very impressive, wedding decorations. After some outdoor games and some fun speeches, the couple was ready for the cake cutting and then onto the beautiful first dance. Thank you so much Juliet and Tom for choosing me to document your wedding day. I’m so honoured that I could be part of it.

This was the first time I visited this rustic and country wedding venue to capture Abbey and Chris’s wedding day. They were incredibly lucky to have beautiful sunshine throughout the whole day. After their outdoor ceremony, we managed to escape for some couple’s photos to a wonderful private garden that this venue offers. It offers so many fantastic locations that allow me to create the most amazing images.

I am truly honored for my couple to choose me to capture their big day. I really enjoyed being part of it and capture all their special moments.
