Highgate House – Booking Your Perfect Wedding Venue

WEB - Highgate House Wedding - Garden 11 ##Photographer - www.edclayton.co.uk##

Recently, myself and my other half Rob were invited to check out one of the gorgeous Sundial Group wedding venues. Being from the North, we decided where better to go than Northamptonshire’s Highgate House – A gorgeous Grade II listed building with plenty of space and character for a wedding, catering to a number of different wedding sizes and styles.

Why Highgate House is the perfect backdrop for an alternative wedding

~ Set in rural Northamptonshire countryside.
~ Grade II listed building – classic backdrop perfectly contrasts an untraditional wedding.
~ 26 acres of grounds available for photo opportunities.
~ Grounds have previously been used for carousels, tipis as well as a wide range of themed outdoor games.
~ Venue’s own red routemaster bus can also be used for photo opportunities.

~ Venue boasts a uniquely magnificent Baronial Hall – particularly moody and atmospheric for evening celebrations – ideal for medieval-style banqueting, burlesque or gothic themed weddings.
~ Range of alternative wedding breakfast menus are available such as hog roasts, BBQs, Mexican. Or challenge us to create one of your own!

Inspiration – A Wild And Free Wedding

Posted on March 11, 2016 | Comments Off on Inspiration – A Wild And Free Wedding

Tattoos, beard and horses – This is what Cillia Ciabrini of Pour Fair Court shared with me and I’m so glad I get to feature it on Marry Me Ink. This inspirational wedding shoot was born from the desire to bring together a intimate wedding in a wild and bohemian atmosphere – a little rock and folk. This shoot is full of geometric colour and gorgeous landscapes.. My favourite! I had the chance to speak to Cillia about her styling ideas for the shoot.

It all started with the encounter with Lena and Aden – a beautiful couple with atypical traits and tattooed bodies but particularly funny and sweet! I have to admit, the beauty of Lena hit me – she releases an incredible softness and her beauty is timeless. She’s one of these warm beauties that seems cold from the outside, she’s mysterious and fascinating and it is exactly this atmosphere that I wanted to reflect, a winter wedding with a blue light but a warm couple. Sublimated by the Make Up of Alexia Parisi, Lena is gorgeous in her tailored silk dress made by the talented Kaa Couture.

Aden wears a suit by Vaubecour Lyon. (Even though he is more used to wearing jeans and sneakers!) All their tattoos were done at Lena’s shop in Lyon, Ink’a Tattoo. This is where they met and where I have also seen them for the first time.

Posted on February 25, 2016 | Comments Off on Marry Me Ink Loves Ed Godden Photography

Today on Marry Me Ink, I get to introduce you to Ed Godden Photography. I’ve had the chance to feature one of Ed’s weddings before and I’m excited to be sharing some sneak peeks to what others are to be featured on the blog!

I’m Ed, and I’m the photographer, editing machine, chief coffee maker, and general dogs body at Ed Godden Photography.

I’ve been a full time pro photographer for 20 years now… ever since I left college at 17 years old. I shoot weddings all year round for alternative, creative, and chilled-out couples in love.

My style of shooting is very relaxed, stylish, simple, documentary photography. Capturing special moments and telling a true story of the day, in a funky and stylish manner is always my main priority on a wedding day.

What inspires your work?

My couples inspire me to push me year after year. Seeing the joy I bring to a couple and their friends and family is the best feeling in the world. I shoot at least 30 weddings a year, so am always trying new things and experimenting.

What are your favourite brides to work with?

I’m in a very fortunate position where most brides that book me are chilled-out, laid back brides, that are happy to put complete trust into me on their wedding day. Allowing me to just shoot away, and do my thing!
