Aldwick Estate Wedding Photographer

 

 

Aldwick Estate offers a delightful alternative to traditional wedding venues, nestled in the heart of North Somerset’s picturesque countryside and framed by the majestic Mendip Hills. This charming English vineyard provides a stunning and secluded setting for your special day.

The estate features two beautifully restored stone barns connected by a warm oak-floored reception area. Each barn is tastefully designed with neutral tones and rustic accents, combining countryside charm with timeless elegance.

You can tailor your ceremony to suit your vision, whether it’s an intimate gathering in the cozy Old Barn or a romantic outdoor ceremony amid the vineyard, surrounded by sweeping views of the Somerset landscape. The Old Barn comfortably hosts up to 150 guests for a civil ceremony or blessing. Afterward, enjoy drinks and canapés on the terrace before moving into the New Barn for a sumptuous wedding breakfast. With exposed beams, a brick bar, and views of the vineyard and grounds, it’s a truly memorable space.

Aldwick Estate’s award-winning wines, made from grapes grown on-site, add a special touch to your celebrations. They pair perfectly with your wedding breakfast and make for a meaningful toast to your new life together.

Conveniently located with excellent transport links, the venue offers ample parking and exclusive on-site accommodations for your guests, including six stylish bedrooms and two spacious apartments. To end your day in style, retreat to the luxurious vineyard lodge—a private, romantic escape overlooking the serene Woodlands vineyard.

Lucy & Phil’s wedding at Aldwick Estate

 

Lucy and Phil came to me through a personal recommendation after their original photographer let them down. Whatever the reasons, it was certainly his loss, as I truly enjoyed working with this wonderful couple. Their wedding at Aldwick Court Farm was a beautifully relaxed celebration, filled with love and warmth.

The day began with Lucy’s preparations at a nearby hotel, which was just a short distance from Aldwick Court, allowing me to pop over and capture some moments of the guys getting ready. The ceremony itself was deeply emotional, with Phil particularly moved by the commitment he was making—a moment that always touches me.

Although the morning was cloudy and damp, my secret fair-weather ritual worked its magic, and by the afternoon, the skies cleared. Lucy and Phil and I took a stroll into the vineyards for some relaxed portraits in the beautiful surroundings.

After the wedding breakfast, guests were entertained by the talented singer and guitarist, Pat McIntyre, before the evening festivities kicked off with a lively musical performance.

Here are a few of my favorite moments from Lucy and Phil’s special day. If you’re planning your wedding at Aldwick Estate, I’d love to capture the story of your day with creative, stylish images—no stiff photoshoots, just real moments. Get in touch to discuss availability and pricing.
