Weddings in Suffolk, including Alpheton Hall Barns. Photographed in a candid relaxed style.
I was warmly greeted by Charlotte, the manager responsible for ensuring a seamless wedding day at The Jockey Club Rooms in Newmarket. While I’m no stranger to Suffolk weddings (in fact this year I have been in Suffolk and Norfolk more often than my home county of Essex), this was my first visit to such…
An early start marked Joanna and Catherine’s wedding day in Suffolk, in the warm glow of a beautiful September sun. As I moved between both brides, capturing moments of preparation, the morning unfolded with makeup, hair styling, breakfast, and last-minute adjustments. Jojo even brought out the sewing machine to craft extra beanbags for the lawn…
Alpheton Hall Barns, despite having so much history, is also a venue where every couple that gets married there can make their own mark. The freedom to create a wedding day that reflects who they are and how they want to celebrate is a unique aspect. Jenny and Louis truly made the most of it….
With one of the longest parish church naves in the country, Sinead and her dad had a long and emotional walk down the aisle to marry Sam, who was waiting there at the altar. Her dress was perfect for the setting, a simple and elegant ballgown-style dress… with pockets! Being such a close family, there…
For a chilly late October day, this was such a warm and welcoming wedding for Holly and Mittu. The Black Lion in Long Melford was the perfect place for a calm morning of preparation before heading off to Alpheton Hall Barns for the marriage ceremony and celebrations. The couple led the best performance of the…
They finally got there, having to move their wedding from one August to the next… third time lucky, and the sun really came out and shone for Andrea and Matt’s day at Alpheton Hall Barns, a bit too much, reaching 33.2 °C in this part of Suffolk! This scorching day started at the Little Bury Barn…
It was one of those very warm summer days when I headed north to Suffolk for a vibrant and colourful wedding in a garden. The garden of the groom’s childhood home… and everyone worked hard to transform the space into a gorgeous festival themed wedding celebration.It was very carefully planned by Jack and Anna, and…
Whilst out walking the other day I ended up taking a moment to reflect upon how I shoot weddings, as my wedding season is about to almost return to normality.I have missed it so very much.I already talk a bit about my reportage approach on the home page, with a few testimonials to give you…
A Suffolk Garden Wedding There was a heatwave, Exploding Kittens, Mario Kart, a handmade dress, sunflowers, and pigs. Before anyone worries, no cats got so hot they popped; it’s a card game. I might have nearly melted a bit, though. It wasn’t quite the hottest wedding that summer, but it was close.I ended up here…
New faces and new places. Both warm and welcoming. When I arrived at the venue I was walking to the lodgings when Stacey’s dad pulled up in a golf buggy and gave me a lift. I had never met anyone here before, they booked me during the first lockdown so we had only spoken on…
Everybody was Kung Fu fighting, those kids were fast as lightning and they did in fact have expert timing! In a very well planned first dance Annlouise, Raphael and the younger guests put on quite a show for the first dance! It was an unseasonably windy July day at Alpheton Hall Barns near Sudbury. Annlouise,…
My first homebrew wedding! Heidi and Rob were showered with hops from above during their first dance, the tables were named after varieties of hops, and most impressive of all is that Rob brewed all of the beer drunk at this wedding himself! These beers had names like Hop Hat & Tails and The Brewed…
Ashleigh and Duncan left London behind for a wedding in the countryside of Suffolk at one of my favourite venues Alpheton Hall Barns. The day started off at the nearby Hall Barn where Ashleigh and her family were staying, a lovely little calming place to get ready for the ceremony at the St Peter’s and…
