WASING PARK
As a wedding photographer, I’m always on the lookout for venues that offer the perfect combination of breathtaking scenery and intimate charm. When Elizabeth and Aidan booked me to photograph their wedding at Wasing Park, Reading, I knew their day was going to be something truly special. Wasing Park is one of those rare places where every corner offers a stunning backdrop, making it a dream location for a wedding photographer like myself.
Elizabeth and Aidan’s wedding, held in July this year, was a perfect blend of elegance, love, and natural beauty. With the sun shining brightly on their big day, it was the ideal setting for me to capture some of my favourite moments.
The Venue: Wasing Park’s Picture-Perfect Backdrops
Wasing Park is a hidden gem nestled in the Berkshire countryside, and it’s hard to imagine a more beautiful place for a wedding. The venue offers a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces, including the Garden Room for the ceremony and the enchanting Castle Barn for the evening reception. As a photographer, I was spoiled for choice when it came to capturing Elizabeth and Aidan's love story.
The day began with bridal preparations in the lovely Bridal Suite, which offered plenty of natural light—perfect for those intimate getting-ready shots of Elizabeth surrounded by her bridesmaids. The room’s soft tones and elegant décor made it an ideal backdrop for detail shots of her beautiful lace gown, delicate jewelry, and her stunning bouquet, filled with blush and cream flowers.
Why Wasing Park Is a Photographer’s Dream Venue
Wasing Park is truly one of the most photogenic wedding venues in Reading. The variety of indoor and outdoor spaces, combined with the stunning scenery and beautiful light, make it a wedding photographer’s dream. Whether it's capturing a couple’s intimate moments by the lake, documenting the joy of a bustling reception in the Castle Barn, or taking advantage of the golden hour, there’s no shortage of opportunities to create breathtaking images here.
Elizabeth and Aidan’s Unforgettable Wedding
Elizabeth and Aidan’s July wedding at Wasing Park was an unforgettable experience, both for the couple and for me as their photographer. Every detail, from the romantic ceremony in the Garden Room to the lively reception in the Castle Barn, came together perfectly to create a day filled with love, laughter, and joy. Being able to capture their special moments in such a beautiful venue was an honor, and I’m so excited for them to look back on their wedding photos and relive the magic of their day for years to come.
