After 4 years together Tom popped the questions while they were visiting the Cotswolds and Lauren tells a very sweet story about a flustered Tom choosing the only dead tree in Westonbirt Arboretum to get down on one knee in front of!! Obviously winning at life, Lauren & Tom chose mid summer weekend to tie the knot and where better to hold the perfect Summer wedding than Blake Hall?!
Opting for a palette of greens and neutrals gave the barns at Blake Hall a very soft, romantic feel which really worked with the ambience of the venue. These two were in a magic bubble all day and were an utter joy to photograph portraits with and Lauren delighted everyone, including me by showcasing not one stunning wedding gown, but two! What could be better than that?! Everything came together with such perfection, the weather and the light playing ball too and it’ll remain a day I’ll remember as Lauren & Tom were game to have my middle daughter along too so she could show off some her camera skills (some of these images are indeed hers! Proud Mumma!). Enough rambling – get a load of a perfect wedding day!

Blake Hall is a dream setting for couples who want their wedding day to feel refined yet relaxed.

The venue’s layout allows everything to flow effortlessly, which is ideal for documentary wedding photography — moments happen organically, without interruption.
One of the highlights of any Blake Hall wedding is golden hour. As the sun begins to dip, the light across the gardens and surrounding fields becomes soft and warm, creating the perfect backdrop for relaxed, natural portraits. These moments are never staged or over-directed — just a few quiet minutes together while the light does its thing.
