Great Fosters dates back to the 17th century and believe it or not was sold for £700, which I imagine was worth somewhat more in 1787 than it is in today’s money.  It’s a very romantic wedding venue in the Surrey countryside and set amongst 50 acres of stunning gardens and parkland.

Great Fosters photos from a documentary wedding photographer capturing real moments

Please peruse through a short gallery from the weddings I have photographed at Great Fosters over the past couple of seasons. I really enjoy working at this Surrey venue and I hope you enjoy the photos. If you do, why not dive into a couple of the blogs from real Great Fosters weddings that are beneath the gallery.

If you are getting married at this luxury hotel and are looking for wedding photographers then please do say hello.

I describe myself as a documentary or candid wedding photographer, focussing on blending of real moments and elegant, creative portraits. I aim to deliver you a set of wedding photos that you will love and share for generations to come.

A Country House Hotel

I’ve shot a lot at this beautiful country house hotel and I can’t help but be transported back in time when I step through the small entrance door into this magnificent house which opens up into a huge and welcoming reception room with log fires burning and decadent deep mahogany decor.

Pristine Gardens and Parkland

Great Fosters offers a beautifully romantic destination for your big day and within a stones throw of London. You and your guests can enjoy Surrey’s finest country house hotels, surrounded by pristine gardens and parkland.

Great Fosters Hotel Suites

I usually start my day shooting the bridal preparation in one of the bridal suites and for a wedding photographer, Great Fosters hotel rooms are a dream. They have the most gorgeous light pouring in, making for beautiful images of the bride as she goes through hair and make-up.

The Orangery

The Orangery overlooks the Magnolia lawn and gardens, with floor to ceiling windows, providing ample daylight for your wedding ceremony. The Orangery at Great Fosters holds 160 guests, but it’s not your only option.

The Archery Pavilion & Lawn

For couples looking to tie the knot outdoors Great Fosters has a licence to conduct ceremonies outside. The Archery Pavilion is located in the 50 acres of parkland, providing a stunning backdrop for those all important wedding photographs.

As the happy couple, you along with the registrars will stand under the Archery Pavilion, whilst guests are seated on the lawn enjoying the summer breeze.

The Painted Hall

After the ceremony guests can spill into the gardens and enjoy reception drinks in the Painted Hall that sweeps down into the Windsor parkland. During winter months this is a cosy and intimate space with open fires and a huge bar.

Tithe Barn

The Tithe Barn is a stunning room for your wedding breakfast. A Grade II listed barn that features exposed vaulted oak beams and a roaring open fire. The Tithe Barn caters for up to 250 guests and has a handy mezzanine balcony (perfect for my light stands) that makes for great photographs and I’ve captured many a belly laugh and tear up there.

Parkland and Gardens

With ample parkland and gardens you are spoilt for choice when it comes to the formal portrait shots and intimate newlywed photographs.  I tend to use the gardens for my newlywed shots, strolling through the grounds and capturing a few special shots for my clients. During the summer months the Wisteria is always beautiful.

Tudor Room

Anyone looking for a smaller more intimate affair is in for a treat. With luxury and attention to detail at its core, the Michelin-starred Tony Parkin at The Tudor Room hosts up to 20 guests for a wedding that is about the occasion.
