Summer Wedding at Hampden House

Rachel and Nick’s Hampden House Wedding

Hampden House, set in the heart of the Buckinghamshire countryside, is a wedding venue steeped in history and elegance. Dating back to the 14th century and once home to the Earls of Buckinghamshire, this Grade I listed country house offers a romantic blend of grandeur and intimacy that makes it a truly exceptional setting for your wedding day.

From the moment you approach along the sweeping driveway, Hampden House feels like something out of a period drama. The stately façade, manicured lawns, and surrounding parkland create a timeless backdrop for your celebrations — and, of course, for your wedding photography. The interiors are just as impressive, with ornate ceilings, historic fireplaces, and beautifully lit rooms that add warmth and depth to every image.

Hampden House Weddings

As a wedding photographer, I love the variety Hampden House offers. Ceremonies in the Great Hall feel regal and full of occasion, while the gardens are perfect for relaxed couple portraits and candid moments with your guests. The soft evening light across the lawns is simply magical, especially during golden hour, when the house glows against the fading sky.

Whether you’re planning an elegant summer celebration or a cosy winter wedding, Hampden House adapts beautifully to your vision. Its combination of history, charm, and natural beauty creates an atmosphere that feels both grand and welcoming. My approach is to capture the spirit of your day in a way that feels authentic — blending natural, heartfelt moments with timeless portraits that reflect the romance of Hampden House itself.
