Dream Wedding Venues I Can't Wait to Photograph

My Dream Wedding Venues Bucket List

As a wedding photographer, I’ve been lucky enough to shoot at some beautiful places—but like any creative, I’ve got a list of dream wedding venues I’d love to tick off. Some are local to me here in Warwickshire, some a little further afield, and one or two might even require a passport! So if you’re planning your day at one of these magical spots, I’m already halfway packed…

🎨 Compton Verney – Elegant Warwickshire Wedding Spot

Art gallery meets countryside elegance? Yes please! Compton Verney is packed with gorgeous Georgian architecture, lakeside views, and gallery spaces full of natural light. I can already picture golden hour portraits by the water or a first look beneath the trees. If you’re after something timeless and a little bit different—this is it.

🧵 Cider Mill Barns – Rustic Charm with a Modern Twist

Modern barn lovers, this one’s for you! Cider Mill Barns is the perfect mix of rustic charm and clean, modern finishes. With a warm indoor ceremony space and countryside views, it’s got a relaxed, feel-good atmosphere that matches my natural, fun photography style perfectly. bRead more about my natural wedding photography style.

🐄The Old Cow Shed – Quirky, Relaxed Wedding Vibes

Quirky name, epic potential. I’ve had my eye on The Old Cow Shed for a while now. It’s got those raw, rustic vibes with modern personality—great for couples who want to do their day their way. The textures, the character, the backdrop? Give me a couple with wild plans and I’m in!

🦒 The Giraffe Shed – Wales’ Most Playful Venue

Full of bold colour and big personality, The Giraffe Shed is made for couples who just want to have fun. Think glitter, neon signs, and a party-first kind of vibe—my little pink world would totally thrive here. If you’re planning a wedding that breaks the rules and lives for the dance floor, let’s go.

🏩 Euridge Manor – A Fairytale Garden Celebration

Bridgerton meets real life at Euridge Manor. With its pastel pink boathouse, stone staircases, and fairytale gardens, this is one of the dreamiest wedding venues in the UK. It’s got elegance and magic written all over it. I can already imagine editorial portraits framed by those climbing flowers…

🌊 Tunnels Beaches – Coastal Wedding Paradise

I love the sea, being near the sea feels like home and Tunnels Beaches is the ultimate coastal wedding spot. A ceremony overlooking the ocean, private beach access, and dramatic seaside views? YES. If you’re dreaming of salt in the air and sandy toes, I’ll bring my camera and the sun cream.

🌿 Wilderness Reserve – A Hidden Countryside Gem

Wilderness Reserve is where luxury meets laid-back in the most stunning countryside setting. With wildflower fields, unique architecture, and peaceful vibes, it’s ideal for weekend weddings and big celebrations. The backdrops here are pure magic—especially at golden hour!

🏛️ The Old Marylebone Town Hall – Timeless London Icon

Chic, iconic, and totally timeless. The Old Marylebone Town Hall has those elegant city vibes I adore, with its grand steps and white columns. Whether you’re eloping or having a full celebration, this is one of London’s most photogenic spots for heartfelt city weddings.

The Ultimate Dream Wedding Venue...

🌺 Italy – A Destination Wedding Dream Come True 🌺

Lake Como, Amalfi Coast, Tuscany… Italy has my whole heart. I’ve always felt drawn to everything about this beautiful country. The landscapes, the food… the wine, the warmth, the romance. I’ve got family in the Marche region, so it’s a place that feels like home away from home. I’m even doing my best to learn the language with Duolingo (ciao, ragazzi!) so I can order gelato and chat with nonna at the same time… nearly lol!!!

If you’re planning a destination wedding in Italy, I’m 100% in. I’ll capture your day with all the joy, colour, and love it deserves (and yes, I’ll probably cry happy tears somewhere in the back with that gelato in hand).
