Fawsley Hall is one of my favourite Northamptonshire wedding venues.
As you drive through the narrow country lanes, you crane your neck to catch a glimpse of the hall peeking through the trees, until finally you’re rewarded with a clear view across the field that is nothing short of breath-taking.
Also, Fawsley’s afternoon tea is to die for and I can happily vouch for their spa - utter bliss!
As an ardent lover of architecture, Fawsley Hall is right up my lane! It will lend your photos a little drama.
A wedding at Fawsley Church is very special. With nothing around except trees and sheep, it looks incredible. No cars or corner shops to avoid in the photos! Just don’t try to walk through the field to the church in your Choo's!
Gorgeous landscaped grounds, including a knot garden and an ancient cedar tree, make photogenic and private spots to get away for your portraits.
The covered (and rather majestic) front entrance is handy for portraits and group photos when it’s wet.
The suites in the main house have striking big windows which provide wonderfully calming and breaktaking views for you while you have your hair done, and let in lots of good quality light for your photographer.
Fawsley Hall was one of the very first wedding venues I ever shot at and, today, it features regularly in my calendar.
I’ve photographed all sorts of weddings at Fawsley - including religious ceremonies at St Mary’s church in the grounds as well as civil ceremonies and receptions in both the main house and Knightley Court.

There’s a hidden room above the Great Hall where secret meetings were held in the lead up to the civil wars.
For some unknown reason, the family crest on the outside of the bay window is on its side.
The large shield in the Great Hall shows 334 quarterings of heraldry, marking every Knightley marriage up to the 19th century.
You can sleep in the same room (now the 1575 Suite) that Queen Elizabeth I stayed in after helping her father Henry VIII with the dissolution of the monasteries.
