Champagne Spray

There’s no better way to kick off the celebrations than with a bottle of champagne. Gather your bridal party or just the two of you, head to the front of the manor, and let the cork fly. The front of Woodhall Manor is one of its most iconic views – the tall chimneys, the red-brick walls, the sweeping entrance. Pair that with the energy of a champagne spray, and you’ve got a shot that’s fun, full of laughter, and instantly says: we’re married!

Wild Grass Walks

For a softer, more natural shot, head to the side of the manor where the wild grass and meadows stretch out. Walking together through the long grass with the manor in the background creates a relaxed and romantic image. The soft light filtering through the grass adds a warm, dreamy feel, highlighting the connection between the two of you. These photos capture the simple joy of being together and the countryside charm of Woodhall Manor, offering a natural and timeless complement to the grand, posed shots in front of the house.

Back of the House & Gardens

At the back of Woodhall Manor, the gardens open up into a really lovely, quiet spot. The fountains add a gentle, peaceful feel, and the manor doors give a nice frame for your photos. It’s a perfect place to take a moment together away from the busyness of the day – walking hand in hand, sharing a laugh, or just pausing to take it all in.

The combination of the water, greenery, and historic architecture creates photos that feel timeless but also relaxed. The light catching on the fountains or through the trees adds a soft, natural glow, giving the images a warm, romantic vibe. This area is a great way to capture a mix of gentle, intimate moments that feel personal and natural, while still showing off the charm of Woodhall Manor and these shots work beautifully alongside the bigger, more formal photos, adding variety and showing the quieter, more private side of your wedding day.

These are the moments that truly show the connection between you two, giving your wedding album depth and emotion beyond the big party shots.
