Rudding Park Wedding Photographer
Rudding Park is an exquisite and refined luxury wedding venue near Harrogate that I’ve had the pleasure of photographing many times. A privately owned luxury hotel, with 90 bedrooms and suites, destination rooftop spa with beautiful rooms for weddings and an incredible 19th Century Chapel all set in 300 acres of landscaped gardens and woodland; Rudding Park is an incredible location for your wedding ceremony and reception.
My approach to luxury wedding photography is all about telling your story. It is about unscripted images; I am there to capture the pictures from your day as it unfolds – I won’t stage moments because they look good for a photo but I might turn you towards the best light or suggest a little movement.
I have been photographing weddings at Rudding Park for over 10 years which often makes couples feel more relaxed knowing that I know the beautiful grounds and gardens very well; with knowledge of the most impressive locations for your wedding pictures. The walk around the luxury hotel takes in some beautiful sights and features of the gardens and makes for a gorgeous backdrop for your wedding photographs.
Whether you are planning for a luxury, lavish and glamorous wedding or a simple and intimate ceremony, Rudding Park lends itself to creativity. The wedding team at Rudding Park are committed to making sure each wedding reflects the personality of the couple getting married that day; whether you choose modern styling touches throughout your wedding day or a more classic and timeless theme. Both look equally, visually gorgeous in your wedding pictures.
In the summer months couples can visit Love Island, a gorgeous lake in the grounds of Rudding Park with a tree-filled island in the centre, where wedding couples can row themselves across to the island in a sweet wooden boat to spend some time celebrating their first moments together as a married couple! It is such a different option to have on your wedding day; lovely to spend those extra, quiet moments together and makes for really beautiful photographs of the two of you as newlyweds rowing across the lake as you celebrate some quiet and intimate moments together.
Even with a wedding venue as utterly photogenic as Rudding Park, your couple’s portraits session won’t be just about the photos. I want it to be an experience you enjoy and a memory you’ll always cherish. I want to give you a chance to forget about speeches and the dress, the styling and the bouquet; and just spend time focusing on what your wedding day is all about – the two of you, your vows, your life together. So we will take a stroll through the grounds together; explore Rudding Park together with the two of you as newlyweds and re-live your day together all over again.
Couples getting married at Rudding Park can choose from a variety of rooms and locations across the venue to say their vows and celebrate. The Radcliffe Room, Crosby Suite and Rudding House are all available to couples deciding to get married at Rudding Park. Each of the rooms are full of natural light and make a beautiful setting for wedding photographs and all of which offer a wealth of character and elegance – high ceilings, modern, luxurious décor and floor to ceiling windows with views of the immaculate gardens.
