Bride and groom kissing during an outdoor wedding ceremony with guests seated in the background.

Megan and Ryan’s intimate wedding at Pauntley Court was a beautifully relaxed celebration set in the heart of the Gloucestershire countryside. Rich in history and famously known as the birthplace of Dick Whittington, Pauntley Court is an effortlessly elegant wedding venue and a truly picture-perfect setting for a wedding day.

Surrounded by stunning gardens and grounds, a peaceful lake and a charming boathouse, Pauntley Court offers an idyllic backdrop for natural, documentary-style wedding photography. From the moment I arrived, the venue felt calm and timeless — a place where historic surroundings and heartfelt moments come together effortlessly.

I loved every minute of documenting Megan and Ryan’s wedding, focusing on the quiet, meaningful moments that made their day feel so personal and authentic. Their celebration was intimate, emotional and full of connection, perfectly suited to such a beautiful Gloucestershire wedding venue.
