Welcome to the Wedding of Jade and John at High Grosvenor House, Bridgnorth.
Jade and John—now the Estabrooks—tied the knot in true style at the beautiful High Grosvenor House in Bridgnorth. From the very start, their wedding was infused with personality, heart, and a shared love of music that echoed through every detail.
The day began in the main house, where Jade and her bridal party got ready in one of the most elegant spaces you could wish for on a wedding morning. Light-filled and full of charm, it set the perfect tone for the celebrations ahead.
Although the Spring weather kept everyone guessing, the skies cleared at just the right moments. We were lucky enough to capture some stunning portraits of the couple beneath the blossom tree, with the moody clouds adding a cinematic edge to the shots.
Inside, their love of music came to life through thoughtful table decor and styling choices that felt effortlessly cool and completely ‘them’. The evening finished with a high-energy party, complete with sparklers and a whole lot of dancing—a perfect end to a day that was as unique and joyful as the couple themselves.

Tents, Tunes and Love: A Countryside Powys Wedding to Remember
Elliot and Laura
Garth Barns & Country House, Llanidloes, Powys

Welcome to the Wedding of Elliot and Laura at Garth Barns in Llanidloes, Powys.
Nestled in the rolling hills of Llanidloes, Powys, Garth Barns and Country House provided the most breathtaking setting for Laura and Elliot’s wedding—a celebration that perfectly balanced rustic charm with heartfelt intimacy.
Laura and Elliot put their personal touch on every detail of the day, planning much of the wedding themselves. Their hands-on approach gave the entire celebration a warmth and authenticity that made it truly special.
Though the weather threatened to play its part, the couple held firm in their wish for an outdoor ceremony—and it was a decision that paid off. Beneath soft autumn light and surrounded by sweeping Welsh countryside, guests gathered for a ceremony that was both personal and deeply moving.
Sian Allen, their celebrant, brought a unique and thoughtful energy to the ceremony, weaving in the couple’s story with sincerity and grace. One particularly touching moment came as the wedding rings were passed among the guests, allowing each person to offer a quiet blessing or thought for Laura and Elliot before they exchanged vows. Pianist Robbie Roberts provided a beautiful soundtrack, adding even more emotion to an already heartfelt moment.
Shortly after the ceremony, the skies opened—but even a downpour couldn’t dampen the spirits. Guests moved seamlessly into the marquee, where the celebrations continued in full swing. Incredible food, laughter, and dancing filled the space, with Fourphit Party Band providing the perfect soundtrack to an unforgettable evening.
Laura and Elliot’s day was a testament to trusting your instincts, leaning into the beauty of the season, and celebrating love with those who matter most. It was a joy to be a part of.

Rustic Elegance: A Summer Wedding at Dudley Farm, Church Stretton

Welcome to the Wedding of Juan and Lily at Dudgeley Farm in Church Stretton, Shropshire.
A Summer Celebration of Two Cultures: Juan & Lily’s Wedding in Church Stretton
Juan and Lily’s wedding was a heartfelt celebration of love, heritage, and togetherness—set against the rolling hills of Shropshire at the picturesque Dudgeley Farm. The couple met while studying at Bristol University, and chose to marry in Lily’s hometown of Church Stretton, surrounded by the landscapes she grew up with.
The ceremony took place at Saint Michael and All Angels C of E Church, just next door to Lily’s family home. The morning was beautifully calm and intimate, filled with quiet moments as Lily prepared for the day in the house where she’d spent her childhood.
From the outset, their wedding was a seamless blend of cultures. Juan, originally from Ecuador, brought a vibrant Spanish flair to the day—from the music and colour palette, to the warmth and energy of the celebrations. These elements contrasted and complemented the traditional Shropshire countryside details, creating something truly unique.
One of the most touching moments came during the speeches, when Lily, along with her father, both addressed guests in Spanish. It was a powerful gesture—one that captured the spirit of the day and the couple’s journey. Two families, two cultures, and two people coming together with grace and love.
Set beneath a soft summer sky, surrounded by nature and loved ones, Juan and Lily’s wedding was more than a union—it was a celebration of connection and belonging.

Penny and Oli
Market Drayton Wedding
Welcome to the Wedding of Penny & Oliver at their perfect Home Farm Wedding Hodnet, Market Drayton.
When I first met these guys and they described their Wedding to me, it genuinely sounded too good to be true. However, when I tell you the level of detail they both went to making their Wedding happen, they pulled off one of the most incredible Festival style Weddings you could have imagined!
They started the day off very traditionally at the stunning St Luke’s Church in Hodnet, then travelled to their family home at Kenstone Manor, which hosted a huge Tipi surrounded by a breathtaking garden lake…not to mention glamping provided for their guests! Each guest even had their own festival wrist band, that’s the amount of detail we are talking about here!
What I loved though about Penny and Oliver is that they are two down to earth, hard working, honest people who are a joy to be around. They have the most wonderful family and friends behind them, and being childhood sweet hearts made this a huge milestone in their lives.
