Broughton Hall Wedding Photographer
When Sarah + Tom asked us to be their Broughton Hall Wedding Photographer we were over the moon. Now, we don’t hide the fact that Utopia at Broughton Hall is one of our favourite wedding venues in Yorkshire. We absolutely love the place and really enjoy shooting there and of course, we love Yorkshire! The couples who get married on the Broughton Hall Estate are always bloody lovely just like Sarah + Tom.
We headed to bride prep at Yellison Farm and groom prep at Higher Scarcliffe on the Broughton Hall estate. The views from the cottages are amazing and are just a short drive away from all the Broughton Hall Utopia wedding venue and Eden. Tom and the guys chilled outside Higher Scarcliffe supping beers whilst taking in the views whilst trying to keep cool. The heatwave we were having was a crazy 32 degrees by 1pm! Sarah was really, cool, calm having a great time with her family and her gorgeous daughter. She was a little angel all day!
Outdoor Wedding Ceremony at Utopia, Broughton Hall
Once the guys were all looking fly, minus their jackets (good call Tom) they headed across to Utopia shortly followed by Sarah. We have shot many times on the estate but this was our first time shooting an Outdoor Wedding Ceremony at Utopia on the Broughton Hall Estate and we have to say we are HUGE fans. All the guests gathered outside on the terrace of the amazing Utopia and then took their seats while they waited on Sarah to step down the aisle.
Sarah and the girls walked across the rolling lawn in between the beautiful garden beds of Utopia where Tom waited to marry his girl. After the registrar took some chewing gum from Tom at the start of the ceremony, (naughty Tom) the ceremony was completed in the blazing sunshine. S+T were showered with confetti before they went to meet and greet all their guests.
UK Heatwave
The UK heatwave has given us the most amazing weather this summer and we are forever grateful to Mother Nature. The heatwave also gave us the most gorgeous golden hour and the opportunity for some mega sunset wedding portraits. As soon as Paul saw the light coming just right he hurried off to ask Sarah + Tom to come on a short drive in our car to find a spot to have some lovely sunset pictures. We headed off to a fallen tree just a few minutes away from Utopia and we had some chill time with them whilst taking awesome bridal portraits of these two obviously, with drinks in hand.
After a little time, we headed back to the car and headed back to Utopia so Sarah + Tom could get ready to party.
Outdoor First Dance
With the weather being so amazingly gorgeous, none of the guests, Sarah or Tom wanted to head inside to party so between the DJ, the venue, Sarah + Tom and ourselves we decided to move the party outside! The first dance was held on the terrace followed by a load of guests throwing some crazy shapes to the DJ. It was like being on holiday. What a party and what a great atmosphere dancing under the inky coloured sky of dusk.
Massive Thank you to Sarah + Tom for asking us to be your Broughton Hall Wedding Photographers. We had such a great time with you all.
