Sandhole Oak Barn Wedding

As a destination wedding photographer, we’ve had the privilege of working at so many different wedding venues, however, I particularly love a good rustic country wedding. Let me take you back to a gorgeous country wedding in England, set in the stunning Cheshire countryside. Our couple, Toni & Ian tied the knot here on a gorgeous summer’s day, back in July 2019.

The charater filled barn is set beside a six acre lake and boasts of space for your ceremony, wedding meal and reception.

Toni & Ian hired us for half the day and in terms of photography, wanted to keep things very relaxed. The day started with a few bridal prep photos of Toni and her bridesmaids, inside one of the gorgeous dressing rooms. It was lovely to hear the excitement amongst the girls (inbetween the nerves) while I was there.

The Ceremony

The Oak Barn consists of oak flooring and floor to ceiling windows that overlook the lake. In addition, the ceilings are high with oak beams and wrought iron chandeliers, creating an impressive space for guests. It’s filled with natural light, making the venue a photographer’s dream.

Toni was escorted down the aisle and given away by her brother, while tears of joy and sadness were shed. These kind of moments are what we live for on the day of your wedding. We love capturing those real and raw emotions as your story unfolds.

Post Ceremony

Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed drinks and canapes while mingling with one another. 

We used this time as an opportunity to capture a lot of those candid moments of guests and group photos. In addition, we also like to take the couple away for a few quick snaps as husband and wife.

The Reception

Guests were seated in due course to enjoy a wedding meal, catered by one of the UK’s award winning caterer’s. This was later followed by heartfelt and embarrassing speeches, as well as the cake cutting.

We finished the night by photographing the first dance and what a day it was! Absolutely amazing!
