BETH & BRAD
A Rustic Country House Derbyshire Wedding at Shottle Hall
Beth and Brad married in a beautiful late spring ceremony at Shottle Hall – an idyllic Victorian country house that I really is a great backdrop for a variety of weddings.
I joined them as guests were arriving for the day, managing to catch (via a guest tip off) the groomsmen getting ready in the venue car park.
I loved the songs by Sam Jayne, she has a great repertoire, yet somehow makes the songs her own. I especially enjoyed her acoustic rendition of Fontaines DC’s ‘Favourite’. And the guest illustrations by Honey Bea were a really interesting alternative to a guestbook. The rustic suits and decor, and the understated simplicity of Beth’s dress really gave the day a stylised feel that was uniquely theirs.
We lucked out on weather – It had been a rainy week (it is Derbyshire, after all!) and it held off for most of the day.
Overall, it was a really relaxed wedding with a great crowd of people.

“Simon was able to completely capture the essence of our day without us even noticing him. His photos are just beautiful whilst being completely natural. His style and approach was exactly what we were looking for.”
