As a Lincolnshire wedding photographer, I always love capturing elegant portraits, especially at a local wedding venue. On top of this, when the wedding venue is as beautiful as Hirst Priory and the couple as lovely as Julia and Alex, it’s a match made in heaven! Hirst Priory is a real up and coming location for a wedding in the Lincolnshire countryside. Hazel, the wedding planner who runs the venue, is a fantastic make up artist who I’ve worked with in the past. She’s done an incredible job of transforming the place into a wedding venue anyone would be proud to be married at. She was incredibly helpful and so were the rest of the staff. Weddings are a tough business and finding people like this make the day special for everyone.
Flowers, lace and confetti
The weather was incredible all day, bathing everything in natural light, and this just made the colours they had chosen for the bridesmaids, flowers, cake and table decorations seem that much more vibrant. Everything coordinated and complimented each other so well. Even down to the vintage car provided by Jeff at All Occasion Cars adding to the feel of the day. Blush Venue Decor did a fantastic job piecing together the couples ideas. For the couple photos we took a trip down into the vaults for their elegant portraits. The light inside the vaults was very different to the summer sunshine outside, which gave a very different vibe. We of course then had a little wander out of the front and into the gardens. We were spoilt for choice when it came to couples portraits.

Julia and Alex chose to have a simple wedding ceremony with no speeches or evening party. Instead they had guests wave them off before the sun set for their honeymoon. (in another of Jeff’s chauffeur driven cars!) Sounds like one of those stress free real weddings to me! Hirst Priory are going to be allowing couples to have their ceremony in this regal space. With an option of an outdoor wedding, perfect for garden games, on top of the usual rooms in the main part of the house you’d be spoilt for choice. Hurst Priory offers luxuriously appointed ensuite bedrooms next to the Lincolnshire golf course. The word ‘lovely’ is very much overused, but this wedding so very elegantly screamed lovely, so much so that I’ll let these real wedding pictures do the talking.
