Wonderful day at Peckforton Castle as Tanya and Matt celebrate their long awaited wedding day.

Peckforton Castle, one of Cheshire’s most stunning wedding venues.

“At Peckforton Castle, serenity and sophistication come together to create an elegant setting for your special day. Pass through the stunning gatehouse lodge and up the long sweeping drive to a place that promises a fairytale. Steeped in history and set against a backdrop of rolling Cheshire countryside, it’s an idyllic venue for your castle wedding and wedding breakfast – whether it’s an intimate family affair or an occasion more grand.

An idyllic setting, with all you need to make your perfect castle wedding a reality – stunning grounds, red sandstone walls, marble floors, vaulted dining rooms and roaring open fires to set the scene.”

Peckforton Castle, elegant and stunning.

I loved capturing Tanya and Matt’s wedding yesterday. The couple celebrated at Peckforton Castle, a stunning and grand wedding venue in the Cheshire countryside. I was ecstatic to photograph a wedding at Peckforton Castle again, I have been lucky enough to capture a number of amazing weddings here now and with Peckforton Castle being such a superb venue for any type of wedding, I get excited to return every single time. I am already looking forward to the next special wedding I get to capture here. 

One of my favourite moments of the day was when I was capturing Tanya entering the stunning ceremony room at Peckforton Castle to meet her soon to be husband Matt. Craig Owen Music greeting guests and accompanying Tanya’s walk down the aisle perfectly. After spending the morning with a slightly… nervous Tanya and her girls, I knew once she set eyes on Matt as she walks down the aisle with her Dad she would feel instantly relaxed. With the unbelievable natural light entering the grand room from the large windows at Peckforton Castle, it was like a photographers dream. The photographs I took of it definitely have a "love is in the air" vibe to them. It is truly an amazing job working as a wedding photographer in Cheshire and the surrounding counties.

Tanya and Matt interacted freely with their guest at the reception. The surroundings were wonderful and there was such a fun for all feel to the afternoon. I was still on the lookout to catch some awesome moments of everyone enjoying the magical wedding day while guests relished some refreshing drinks in and around the grounds of their stunning wedding venue.

I spent a few moments with Tanya and Matt before their wedding breakfast to capture some relaxed portraits at the front of the beautiful and breathtaking Peckforton Castle. I captured some really great images of the newly weds which can be cherished forever. This was also a perfect time for our bride and groom to spend a few moments alone and catch up, take it all in and get prepared for the speeches!

All the guests were keen not to miss the speeches. Every speech is unique and I am always excited shooting them, especially when the groom is reminded of his childhood adventures with his brother and best man for the whole wedding party to enjoy. The day ended with Tanya, Matt and their guests rocking the dance floor to their DJ before retiring to the wine cellar with family and friends.

Tanya and Matt's wedding was such a stunning wedding to capture, I wish them heartfelt congratulations and all the luck in the world as husband and wife.

Quick thank you also to my wonderful and very talented second photographer for the day Chris for helping out!
