A VENUE FIT FOR A FAIRYTALE

farnhamcastle.com

LIVE OUT YOUR FAIRYTALE FANTASY

If you’ve found your Prince or Princess, you’ll want to celebrate your relationship in the most romantic setting, and Farnham Castle is the perfect place for that. There’s a reason why this stunning venue has won multiple awards and even been featured on the iconic TV show, Married at First Sight. It’s because the ambience and design of the building creates a beautiful backdrop for your vows, ensuring gorgeous photographs and capturing a feeling that you’ll want to hold on to forever.

The sprawling nature of the historic building means that every wedding is unique, allowing you to create a day that works for you. There are many different spaces to conduct a marriage ceremony, including the Lantern Room for civil ceremonies, the Norman Chapel for religious ceremonies and the Great Lawn and East Lawn for outdoor ceremonies.

This wealth of options also means the staff are always prepared in unexpected circumstances. For example, if you’d planned an outdoor ceremony, but the weather had other ideas, you could effortlessly redirect to an indoor space for a wedding that is just as breath-taking.

Newlyweds and their guests also have exclusive access to The Gatehouse, Pembroke Room, Stone Hall, Lantern Hall and Great Hall. The Great Hall is particularly magnificent, with stained glass windows and an imposing feature fireplace that emphasises the grandeur of the venue.

FINE-DINING DONE PROPERLY

When the vows are read and rings exchanged, guests can enjoy a drinks and canapés reception while you are whisked off by your photographer to create pictures you will treasure forever.

And when you return to your party, you can all sit down to enjoy an exquisite three or four-course dining menu created by head chef Simon Lloyd and his very talented team. Farnham Castle appreciate that the food is one of the most important parts of any wedding, so they don’t take it lightly! Using the finest, locally sourced ingredients, food is prepared fresh on the day and served hot, ensuring compliments all round. You can choose from the extensive catering menu and attend tasting days to help you make your decision. Nobody is left out, with options for vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free diners too.

Luxury food should always be served with the right drinks, so they help you pair your chosen menu with Champagnes and wines selected from international wine lists. And, if your guests fancy something different, the Gallery Bar is well-stocked with plenty of alternative options, including some impressive cocktails!

Your dining experience is served in the Great Hall, with space for 238 seats, and if you have a larger guest list, a marquee on the Great Lawn is a wonderful option.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT

The Guildford Suite is the most beautiful bridal room – the perfect escape for the newlyweds after their whirlwind day. With a large, comfortable bed, the spacious room offers incredible views over the grounds of Farnham Castle, so you can wake up and relive the memories of the previous day with a smile.

And your guests can stay too, in one of the 33 en-suite bedrooms. Then you can all meet up for breakfast in the Library, keeping the magic of your special day alive for a little bit longer.

Want to discover the magic of Farnham Castle for yourself? Head to www.farnhamcastle.com and get your initial viewing booked in.

Hi, I’m Georgia/Gee, a wedding photographer with a passion for storytelling, a creative soul with a slight caffeine dependency. Based in Lancashire, I travel all over the UK capturing love stories in all of their beautiful  documented glory.

For me, photography is so much more than pretty pictures, It’s about telling your story and the moments that make your wedding uniquely yours. I’m drawn to the unscripted, authentic, unexpected tears, belly laughs that make your cheeks ache, stolen glances, and of course, that one uncle owning the dance floor.

My style is fun, warm and intimate. Forget the stiff poses and forced smiles, that’s not my vibe. I want you to feel at ease, whether giggling through your vows, sneaking a quiet moment together, or tearing up the dance floor. My goal is to capture the magic as it unfolds naturally, the emotions, energy, and little quirks that make your day unforgettable.

Your wedding day is more than just the ceremony, the dress, or the venue. It’s the heels left on the dance floor, the personal touches you’ve dreamed of and the quiet moments honoring loved ones who couldn’t be there. From the early morning preparations to the buzz of the band starting the party, I’m here for it all, capturing the details that matter most to you.

I bring high energy when it’s needed, a calm presence for the nerves, and a personal touch to ensure your photos feel like you. If you’re after a photographer who’ll go all in cheering you on, making you laugh, and creating images that instantly take you back to your special day, then look no further. Your love story deserves to be told, and I’d be honored to tell it.
