Wedding Photography at Pennyhill Park Hotel, Bagshot, Surrey
I have been a Pennyhill Park wedding photographer for about 10 years now. I have shot dozens and dozens of weddings and events there, all times of the year and under all conditions. The smallest wedding I have photographed at Pennyhill Park was just two people – the bride and groom, with a hotel manager and myself acting as witnesses :) The largest wedding? Getting on for 200 friends and family. After all these weddings, I can safely say I know Pennyhill inside and out. I’ve photographed at the hotel in all seasons so I am pleased to say I know this beautiful wedding venue inside out. How does this help you with your Pennyhill wedding? I can give you tips for organising your drinks reception, family photography, bride and groom portraits and other photography to best take advantage of the beautiful grounds and building. Taking into the account the lighting at the time of year and the time of day your wedding is being held is really important to the wedding photography.
It’s a beautiful place to get married or to host your wedding reception. But you knew that anyway! There is a long winding drive from the A30 through a tree lined area adjoining the golf course to Pennyhill Park Hotel itself. The original building was a 10 bedroom manor house now extended and expanded to some 140+ rooms. There are several rooms in the hotel licenced for weddings from the modest (The Fairway) to the quite huge (Windsor & Eton). The Library deserves a special mention, it’s a very atmospheric room, part of the original Victorian Manor House the suite retains the charm and character of the original country house. With the original stone fire place, wood panelled walls, stain glass windows and beautiful antiques it has been carefully restored and preserves all the character of time when it was built
Overlooking the grounds and golf course, the suite is enhanced with an antique glass conservatory with doors leading out onto the terrace and lily ponds where guests can enjoy pre-dinner drinks and photographs. It’s a beautiful room to get married in, I love photographing weddings that are held there. When I was interviewed by Lorraine Kelly on GMTV about wedding photography a few years ago, the filming was carried out in the Library at Pennyhill Park. You can see this interview at the bottom of this page.
