Blackwell Grange wedding photography – the flow of the day
Getting ready
The Potting Shed is an imaginatively warm and inviting, fun space in which you and your bridesmaids can prepare for the day ahead. It is always a great idea to get ready at the venue to reduce the unnecessary stress in the morning.
The ceremony
Once the ceremony begins, we will be there to capture all those beautiful moments for you. Up to 150 guests can be seated for your ceremony, with elegant chairs on the sandstone floor. The Thatch Barn is truly stunning! Once the ceremony is over, it is time to have that amazing confetti moment in front of the barn.
The reception
After the ceremony, it’s time for your reception! The stylish and contemporary Orchard Barn provides an elegant setting for your celebrations. As wedding photographers we also love the helical staircase leading up to the Snug. Your wedding breakfast for up to 150 guests is served in the Orchard Barn and this is also a great and bright space for the speeches.
Photojournalism at its finest – Blackwell Grange wedding photography
As professional wedding photographers, we take pride in our ability to create artful and emotive images that tell a story. We believe that our photos should evoke a sense of nostalgia and happiness long after the wedding day has passed.
The group pictures
Depending on the weather we can have the group photos outside or inside. If it is very sunny, we’ll make sure to find a shade. Very important if you don’t want to squint on your pictures.

We will watch the light and in the moment that suits you, we will take you for some pictures. It won’t be long, promise, and you will get a variety of natural portraits both during the day and at night.
The party
Orchard Barn can accommodate up to 200 guests for an evening celebration. There is ample space for your chosen entertainment and for dancing too and as wedding photographers we love that part of the day.
