Holly-Jane & Joshua’s Autumn Wedding at Upwaltham Barns, West Sussex
Mid-September brought us to the breathtaking Upwaltham Barns, nestled in the heart of the colourful South Downs, to capture Holly-Jane & Joshua’s gorgeous wedding day. The warm tones of autumn matched perfectly with their chosen colour palette of burnt orange, which vibrantly weaved through the day and beautifully complemented the navy blue of the groom and his groomsmen’s formal naval attire.
Holly-Jane & Joshua thoughtfully incorporated their military background into their celebration with meaningful naval traditions and nautical accents, making their day uniquely personal and reflective of their shared journey.
One particularly heartwarming moment was Holly-Jane’s emotional bridal reveal with her grandad, a memory we were so honoured to capture. From there, she gracefully walked down the aisle in her show stopping gown to share heartfelt vows with Joshua, surrounded by their family and friends in Upwaltham’s romantic East Barn.
Throughout the day, the energy and joy shared by this incredible couple and their guests was simply infectious. We were also joined by a very special guest—Tiller, their beloved dog—who made an adorable addition to their portraits!
As the sun began to set over the Downs, we captured Holly-Jane & Joshua against stunning autumnal backdrops, bathed in the golden light of the season. With the sun setting, the dance floor came alive, and everyone celebrated the love and happiness of this wonderful pair, bringing their special day to a perfect close.

Amy & Matt’s Autumn Wedding at Upwaltham Barns, West Sussex
Mid-September brought us to the stunning Upwaltham Barns, nestled in the heart of West Sussex and the South Downs, where we captured Amy & Matt’s beautiful wedding day as the leaves began to turn golden and the skies were painted with warm autumn hues.
Amy & Matt chose a timeless palette of ivory and green with hints of navy blue, seen in the groomsmen’s suits. This colour scheme blended effortlessly with the vibrant autumn colours surrounding the barns, creating an elegant and warm atmosphere.
From the moment Amy arrived in a stylish retro Camper Van, their day was sprinkled with thoughtful touches that reflected their personalities and attention to detail; from cocktail stirrers adorned with their cat’s face, to handmade cookies as place settings, and on-site illustrators sketching keepsake drawings of their guests. Everyone was made to feel truly special.
The ceremony took place in Upwaltham’s East Barn, where they exchanged heartfelt vows surrounded by a stunning display of florals, setting a romantic and intimate atmosphere. This beautiful theme continued into the reception barn, where laughter and love filled the room as Amy & Matt shared some loving and also hilarious speeches after a delicious three-course dinner.

Becks and Ollie’s Summer Upwaltham Barns Wedding
Our bride and groom had the best of both weathers on their wedding day back in the summer. A rainy morning cast good luck on their ceremony at the picturesque Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Petworth. We subscribe to the old adage that a wet knot is harder to untie, and we think Becks’ and Ollie's bohemian side would agree with us too!
The sun also came out and cast its rays upon the stunning West Sussex countryside home to the gorgeous Upwaltham Barns where the couple celebrated their marriage with their nearest and dearest.
The sky presented some wonderful tones and light that fell upon the hills sending out natural earthy hues which paired beautifully with the ivory, soft pink and champagne colour palette that Becks and Ollie had designed into their day.
This lovely couple certainly achieved their overall vision that the day should be unmistakably ‘Becks & Ollie’ with the unique attention they paid to all of the details to create the bohemian, elegant and chilled out vibe that they had dreamed of.
