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.

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!

Matt and Jo's Summer Wedding at Upwaltham Barns
Matt and Jo are a couple with a long and delightful backstory worthy of its own romantic comedy. Their wedding in mid July was blessed with the heat and sunshine of a superb summer's day and was colourful, laid back and packed full to the brim with intimate and delightful moments.
I arrived at Avisford Park Hotel in Arundel to meet Matt and his best man Costa. I'd like to say it was a cool, calm and collected atmosphere but the room was super hot as the temperature outside just seemed to keep going up and up. We had a good giggle and decided to pay homage to that slightly sweaty morning with this cheeky shot; Matt brandishing a can of Right Guard as his only weapon while Costa coolly adjusts his dapper bow tie.
