How stunning is this reception space at Kimbridge Barn? The beautifully restored barn is set in idyllic countryside and although it's not licensed for ceremonies, a blessing can be held before the wedding breakfast. Wooden beams and rustic chandeliers add to the charming, relaxed atmosphere and the large windows help create a light and airy feel.

For romance with a capital R, Avington Park near Winchester is hard to beat. Steeped in history, the exclusive-use stately home venue provided the perfect backdrop for this stunning shoot. Set in its own private parkland by the River Itchen, it's a photographer's dream. Take a step back in time with the property's ceremony space, one of my favourite areas at the estate – just look at that ceiling!
