Preparations for the wedding
I began the day with Chris and his groomsman at the Bull and Swan, which is a beautiful little hotel in the middle of Stamford before heading over to St John the Evangelist Church in nearby Ryhall for the wedding service and then onto the reception which was held at the beautiful Burghley house estate.
Relaxed Documentary Photography At Burghley House
I have been to Burghley House a few times in the past and it was good to be back at this amazing wedding venue again. You can see why Burghley is such a sought after wedding venue and my job as a wedding photographer doesn't get much better than this.
Champagne and canapés were waiting for the wedding guests as they arrived in the Rose Garden along with various lawn games. The Great Hall was set up beautifully for their wedding breakfast with spectacular floral arrangements by Rebecca at Pollen Designs who is Burghley's recommended florist and you can see why.
Sophie and Chris are both from Stamford and wanted to embrace their surroundings and make the most of the stunning scenery that is on their doorstep. The weather was great, and just a beautiful place to have your wedding. Burghley House is now one of my new favourite places to photograph a wedding
Thank you to the staff at Burghley House for their hospitality and for making their day so special.
Here are a few highlights from the day, enjoy!
If you are looking to get married at Burghley House please do get in touch and see if I am available for your date. I would love to return soon to this wonderful wedding venue.
