How did you meet: Tinder – sorry it’s not more exciting then that! I had my distance set to 40 miles. Mike had his distance set much shorter. With him being in Bedford and myself in Peterborough, if it wasn’t for me we would have never meet so I’m the reason we are now married! The proposal: We were in Central Park in New York. It was a very hot day and we found a shaded area near a lake where people were rowing boats. Mike came to sit next to me on a bench and next thing I k

Max turner Weddings Winter weddings at Dodmoor are nothing short of magical . With candlelight flickering and fairy lights glowing throughout the barns, the atmosphere becomes incredibly romantic and intimate. Darker evenings provide the perfect opportunity for stunning night-time photography, sparklers, and dramatic shots under the stars. The colder weather naturally brings guests together, filling the barns with warmth, energy and atmosphere - it often means a packed dancef

Lilians Lens Photography Autumn is a favourite for many couples thanks to its rich colours and cosy atmosphere . With temperatures that are not too hot and not too cold, it’s an ideal season for enjoying the best of both indoor and outdoor spaces. As the season changes, orange hues, warm browns, and earthy tones become more prevalent — colours that perfectly complement Dodmoor’s rustic wooden beams and characterful barns. Think acorns, pinecones and maybe the odd pumpkin!

Edward Umpa Photography Summer at Dodmoor is full of light! The longer days mean plenty of natural daylight for photography, giving you more time to capture those golden, sun-filled moments throughout the day. A summer drinks reception on the lawn is always a highlight - guests can spill outside, enjoy a refreshing drink, and making use of our garden games. Why not prolong the celebrations outdoors and opt for your speeches outside?! As the evening draws in, the courtyard bec

David Swailes Photography Spring symbolises new beginnings , making it a naturally meaningful time to say “I do.” As the grounds begin to wake up, Dodmoor is dotted with spring flowers. Spring offers an abundance of seasonal blooms, from daffodils and daisies, allowing for such beautiful bouquets! A lot of couples at this time of year love pastel coloured decorations. Temperatures are usually wonderfully balanced, meaning couples and guests can comfortably enjoy both the bar

Weddings bring together family and friends of all ages, and making sure every guest feels comfortable is a top priority! We know that another priority for a lot of our couples is ensuring that their grandparents can be there on their wedding day too, as this is such a privilege if it's possible! Older guests can often face unique challenges at event venues, especially those with rustic or historic settings like barn wedding venues. Here at Dodmoor House, we take special care

Weddings are joyful celebrations that bring families together, including the little ones who often add extra sparkle to the day! Finding a venue that welcomes children and keeps them happily engaged can sometimes be a challenge, but many couples feel it's important to have the little people in their life present on their big day. Here’s why Dodmoor House could be the venue for just that, and how we can create magical memories for the adults and children celebrating your wedd

How we met... At work, I spotted Jon across a rainy car park during a fire drill and thought he was rather handsome.  A few months later our football teams drew against each other during the fantasy football league so I pinged him a message “loser buys the drinks” … my team won so he ended up taking me out for a drink.  A few years later he confessed that he had rigged the league, so our teams got drawn out together as he fancied me too!   It was meant to be. The proposal...

How did your photography journey start? Completely by accident! I was on maternity leave and decided I’d offer some family shoots to fund a new lens… my first family clients were also my first wedding couple (but it took a lot of convincing on their behalf to get me to agree) - it worked out well, 11 years and nearly 800 weddings later… What is your general photography style? Candid, raw, honest, colourful, true to life. What do you enjoy most about the job? No two days are e

How did your photography journey start? I picked up a friends camera one day, and was instantly hooked, it happened by pure chance ( thankfully! ) I then captured pictures of everything out of the pure love of it, and it went from there. I am fully self taught, and have loved every minute of it. What is your general photography style? My photography style is relaxed and natural, with a focus on capturing genuine emotions rather than stiff poses. I combine a documentary approa

How did your photography journey start? My Grandad always had a passion for photography, he bought me my first film camera and began teaching me. My love for art then lead me to study fine art photography at University before adjusting to digital photography when I began working in a studio and then fell in love with Weddings! What is your general photography style? I would describe my style as timeless with an unobtrusive approach. Capturing the special moments and feeing of

How did your photography journey start? Our journey began with a simple love of storytelling through photos - capturing the laughter, tears, and little moments of family and friends. That passion grew into photographing weddings together, and today it’s our joy to create timeless memories for couples on the happiest day of their lives. What is your general photography style? Romantic, natural, and full of emotion. We love real, candid moments—those stolen glances, happy tears

How did your photography journey start? I picked up a camera years ago thinking it’d just be a hobby… and then realised I loved capturing people’s stories. One thing led to another, and here I am, photographing amazing weddings for a living. Best decision ever. What is your general photography style? Relaxed, natural, and fun. I’m all about those candid, in-the-moment shots where people forget I’m even there. No stiff posing, no awkwardness, just the real vibe of the day. Wha

How did your photography journey start? I loved art as a kid, but through school I became passionate towards anything that allowed me to combine creativity, with tech. 3D modelling, website design, spending hours on photoshop. With some encouragement from my A Level Photography teacher (shout out to Mr Phillips) - photography essentially became the perfect blend of the two for me. I shot my first wedding in 2018, became full time in 2019 and Kyle joined shortly after. We’ve b

How did your photography journey start? I was given a camera for my 21 st  birthday and my love of photography began there. I've always loved taking photos of family and friends and when a friend asked me to photograph his wedding, I rediscovered my passion for photography. The idea for the business was born and it was a natural progression to move to photography from my previous career. That was 20 years ago and happily, I still love photography now, weddings in particular!
