Christina & Gavin's Spring Wedding at Upwaltham Barns
I arrived at the idyllic wedding venue of Upwaltham Barns in West Sussex and felt a pang of excitement to be returning for my first Upwaltham wedding of 2017. Kicking us off in style were the lovely Christina and Gavin who chose to marry in the beautiful converted barns in the heart of the flourishing green South Downs countryside. Having photographed here many times I know for a fact that this is a place where making a grand entrance is a given, considering the wow factor presented by these lovingly restored old farm buildings. Sitting amongst perfectly manicured gardens (which are always tailored with seasonally fitting florals), the barns played perfect host to this classy couple who, just married, also made a grand exit, stepping out into the cosy courtyard as a new Mr & Mrs.

Nibbles 2 Nosh’s Wedding Experience Evening took place at Upwaltham Barns in West Sussex, an award winning wedding venue that is very close to my heart. As it is such a popular venue, over the years I have photographed there time and time again and in the summer it almost feels like my second home! The work ethic of the team is always such a pleasure to be part of - the staff are efficient, professional and nothing is ever too much, but you can really tell it is run by a family who are passionate, caring and full of consideration, warmth and fun.
I feel very honoured that the team have asked me to capture their ‘Wedding Experience Evening’ for the last four years now, and I am always really happy to be involved. The evening is a chance for all future Mr and Mrs to get a real feel for this incredibly gorgeous and versatile venue; to see it decked out in all its finery and think about how they might like it to look, feel and sound, and most importantly sampling and choosing the tasty delicacies they will be feeding their guests. I find the evening a real celebration of all the hard work the team put in, a lovely chance to check out new touches and changes they have made, meet new and inspiring suppliers and of course to meet all the excited couples planning their big days.

Clare & Dave's Upwaltham Barns Summer Wedding
I first met London-based Clare and Dave at Upwaltham Barns, a stunning rustic conversion set in the country heart of the magnificent South Downs. It was March 2016 and we were all enjoying a taste of the venue's delicious food at a unique show-case evening (see a previous blog entitled 'A Wedding Experience Evening With Nibbles 2 Nosh'). We got chatting and it was just a few short months on when I got a call and I was delighted to be asked to shoot their wedding back at Upwaltham at the beginning of July, a mere four months on!
