IN THE HEAT OF SUMMER
August 20, 2025
Christine & Brad’s Summer Wedding at The Ravenswood, West Sussex.
A beautifully sunny June day set the scene for Christine & Brad’s wedding at The Ravenswood, a stunning 15th-century venue surrounded by 18 acres of landscaped lawns, gardens, and lakes in the rolling countryside of Sharpthorne, West Sussex.
This paramedic pair, who first met through their work (and shared a very memorable first date!), tied the knot outdoors in The Little Castle. Beneath the sunshine, surrounded by loved ones, their ceremony was a perfect mix of heartfelt romance and lighthearted humour, setting the tone for a day full of love, laughter and joy.
After being showered in confetti, guests enjoyed drinks on the lawn, live music, and even personalised sketches from talented illustrators, thoughtful touches that reflected just how much care Christine & Brad had put into making the day special for everyone.
For their photography, we made the most of The Ravenswood’s many picturesque backdrops. Splitting portraits into moments throughout the day allowed us to capture the gardens, the lakes, and the warm golden light, while ensuring the couple could spend the day celebrating with their guests. Their images reflect a mix of naturally romantic moments and relaxed fun, a perfect mirror of Christine & Brad themselves.
Christine looked stunning in her elegant lace gown, while Brad’s stylish oatmeal three-piece suit was the ideal match. Their neutral tones balanced beautifully against the bright and colourful summer palette, a scheme that reflected this young couple’s vibrant love and energy for life. The colours carried seamlessly into the Princess Beatrice Suite, filling it with warmth and joy as guests enjoyed a delicious wedding breakfast before a dance floor bursting with laughter, incredible moves, and timeless classics. The perfect finale to a magical day.
Christine & Brad, we wish you a bright and colourful future together as you embark on the next part of your journey through life together.
