01 / Sarratt, near Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire / Charlotte & Matt and Becky & Tae

Micklefield Hall: a pond and pavilion, an ivy-covered house and a saxophone in the barn

Micklefield Hall is at Sarratt, near Rickmansworth, and it is the heart of this guide. Charlotte and Matt married here on 5 August 2022, and the photograph at the top of this guide is the two of them walking hand in hand through confetti beneath an oak tree. Guests sit in rows on both sides of the ceremony pond with a pillared pavilion at the far end, and the two stand small in front of the ivy-covered red-brick house. Charlotte's bridesmaids in emerald green line up in front of the pavilion, and the two kiss in golden light in front of a field.

Becky and Tae married at Micklefield Hall on 11 June 2022. Becky gets ready in a bright room with a sloping ceiling, and later Tae and his groomsmen carry her in her dress beside the pavilion while everyone laughs. Guests gather around the pond and pavilion, reflected in the still water, and in the timbered barn a guest plays a saxophone in black and white as the party gets going. A pond and pavilion make ceremony and photographs easy to plan close together, so ask the venue which spaces your booking includes and how guests move between them.

02 / Ashridge, near Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire / Phil & Natasha

Ashridge House: a heart-shaped arch, a Gothic hall and fireworks on the lawn

Ashridge House is at Ashridge, near Berkhamsted, in the west of Hertfordshire. The venue describes a Grade I listed house that was once a royal residence, with about 700 years of history and acres of gardens. Phil and Natasha married here on 21 June 2024. Their photographs begin in a vaulted white stone cloister, where a wedding dress hangs from an arched wooden door at the end, and on the grand staircase dressed with white blossom trees, garlands and lanterns. The ceremony takes place at the foot of the staircase, beneath a heart-shaped arch of white flowers, and afterwards the two come through a carved marble doorway beneath a chandelier with their arms raised. In the red-walled library Natasha bends to greet a dog.

At the top table the two laugh through a speech beside tall windows, and from across the grand hall they appear small in silhouette on the Gothic balcony. In the formal gardens they touch foreheads with the house behind them, and the day ends with a kiss on the lawn as fireworks burst overhead. The venue says fireworks are allowed until 22:00 at Ashridge House, so ask about the rules for your date.

Our dedicated Ashridge House page goes into the venue in more detail.

03 / Hatfield Heath, on the Essex and Hertfordshire border / Leonard & Stephanie

Down Hall: a staircase of chandeliers, a window and a first dance

Down Hall is at Hatfield Heath, on the Essex side of the border with Hertfordshire, so it is a labelled neighbour to this guide. Leonard and Stephanie's photographs begin with a wedding dress hanging beside the staircase beneath chandeliers, and Stephanie having her make-up done beside a window. Later the two embrace with flowers around them and share their first dance.

A grand house gives you staircases, tall windows and chandeliers close together, so ask which rooms are included and where the light is best at the time of your ceremony.

04 / Old Harlow, Essex, near the Hertfordshire border / Shanice & Russel

That Amazing Place: a short garden walk and champagne on the lawn

That Amazing Place is at Old Harlow, in Essex, close to the Hertfordshire border, so it is a labelled neighbour to this guide. Shanice and Russel's photographs centre on a short walk together: a kiss with her bouquet between them, the two standing against an ivy-covered brick wall, a walk through the gardens and champagne sprayed on the lawn, Shanice laughing in heart-shaped sunglasses.

A garden venue can give you several quick backdrops without a long walk away from your guests, so ask which parts of the grounds are open to you.

05 / Long Crendon, Buckinghamshire / Charlie & Peter

Notley Abbey: newspapers, chandeliers and a tree-lined drive

Notley Abbey is at Long Crendon in Buckinghamshire, on the far side of the Chilterns, so it is a labelled neighbour to this guide. Charlie and Peter's photographs begin with morning newspapers and an arrival through the archway, then Charlie arrives for the ceremony beneath chandeliers and Peter takes a quiet moment with his hands pressed together beside a stone wall.

The two smile beneath falling confetti, ride in an open-top car along the tree-lined drive and stand together on the green driveway.
