    Loseley Park Guildford wedding photographer | Siobhan H Photography

    Stylish, luxury wedding at  Loseley Park in Guildford, Surrey.

    Loseley Park is one of Surrey’s best wedding venues, situated just outside of Guildford. With beautiful rolling park land, an impressive Elizabethan mansion and a tithe barn it is perfect for a relaxed and stylish wedding. I first met Verity when she visited my stand at  Brides the Show and of course, I was delighted when she asked me to be her wedding photographer. Before the wedding, we had the most perfect engagement shoot in Brighton, where their love story began, years before. There is nothing more joyful than capturing a couple so clearly in love, so I knew their wedding would be an emotional day.

    On the day itself, the weather decided to be wild and unpredictable; we had downpours, thunderstorms, and blazing sunshine. An interesting (and challenging!) mix but we made the most of it. Verity and Joe exchanged vows in a very moving ceremony, and afterwards the guests made their way to the tithe barn for a cocktail reception. Verity had mentioned her wonderful idea of a New Orleans-inspired  second line parade across the grounds in our previous emails, and it was everything I had hoped for – and more.

    The sun came out, the flags waved, and the brass band lead the wedding party into Loseley’s walled rose garden and back to the reception again. The tradition signifies the start of a new chapter of life for the bride and groom, and I would recommend it to all wedding couples. It is the most joyous thing and everyone loved it.

    The reception was bursting with floral beauty, thanks to the fabulous  Alicia Tennant, as well as some beautiful touches by the bride and groom. As expected, the speeches were filled with emotion – not least from the bride’s dad, who had half the room in tears with his touching tribute to his daughter and new son-in-law.

    The evening continued with Joe’s sister taking to the stage with the band, and everyone partying the night away.

    Thank you so much for having me guys! It has become a beautiful summer memory, and I was so honoured to be part of it.

    So lovely to see my wabi-sabi inspired Pembroke Lodge wedding featured in the wonderful  Bridal Musings wedding blog!

    I first read about the Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi in an  Elle Decoration  editorial piece several years ago, and was immediately drawn to it. Finding beauty in imperfection, and celebrating all that is not perfect instead of turning away from it, was a revelation and changed my way of seeing the world. I feel deeply connected to nature, and find it a source of great beauty and joy.

    I thought it would be interesting to apply some wabi-sabi to my wedding photography, so I got a great team of like-minded creatives on board, and set to work on my vision!

    With the help of luxury wedding planner Andri Benson (from  Always Andri) and London floral designers  Okishima & Simmonds, we brought these ideas to life at the wonderful Pembroke Lodge, in Richmond: one of the few London wedding venues surrounded by natural beauty, and a place that encapsulated the whole idea

    Appreciating the emerging and the dying as well as the perfect now, and the idea of finding beauty in that ‘imperfection’. I love how it brings us closer to nature and ultimately, to ourselves.
