Stansted Park Wedding with a Stunning Outdoor Ceremony & One Epic After Party!
As a Stansted Park Wedding Photographer it was so lovely to be back shooting at the wonderful Stansted House in Rowlands Castle. Nestled in the grounds of Stansted Park in the Hampshire countryside, Stansted House is a beautiful Edwardian building with plenty of natural light. It’s fairy-tale interiors and expansive parklands meant it was the perfect place for Kelly & Dan to hold their big, bold and beautiful celebration!
Kelly & Dan got ready at their family home in Bosham and met their guests in the grounds of Stansted Park for a stunning outdoor wedding ceremony. With far-reaching views across open countryside and ancient woodland their wedding ceremony was the perfect mixture of elegance and natural beauty. After the service guests were invited back to the couples private home in Bosham where the party started with one epic golf cart entrance, cocktails, ice cream, hilarious and heartwarming speeches and an evening of cocktails, shots from ice sculptures and shot girls in a purpose built club! Thank you to the wonderful Helen Cawte Photography for having me along to second shoot this awesome day with her.
Here are some of my favourite photos that I took from this amazing Stansted Park Wedding:
I started the day with Dan and his groomsmen getting ready at Dan & Kelly’s family home in Bosham, after a quick trip to the pub we made our way to Stansted Park Wedding venue.

A Picture-Perfect Outdoor Wedding at Stansted Park.
Stansted Park is a Grade II listed Edwardian house set within 1,750 acres of stunning parkland and forest. Its grand architecture and beautifully landscaped gardens created an idyllic setting for Kelly & Dan’s outdoor wedding. Guests arrived and were seated in the sunshine outside the stately mansion.

The Perfect Ceremony Spot – In Front of Stansted House.
The wonderful Stansted House provided an elegant and regal backdrop with its Italian style entrance as a bagpiper led the bridal procession down the grand steps of the Edwardian house and into the fresh grass. The venue’s unique blend of history and warmth added a sense of enchantment and magic to the day.

Intimate Elegance: Private Home Wedding Reception in Bosham.
There’s something undeniably special about hosting a wedding reception in your private home. It offers a sense of intimacy and personal connection that’s hard to replicate. For Kelly & Dan who live in Bosham, a picturesque village on the West Sussex coast, their private home wedding reception was a dream come true. With its charming coastal views, historic architecture and tranquil ambiance, Bosham provided a stunning backdrop for an unforgettable celebration!
The wedding theme itself was relaxed, elegant and fun with beautiful florals decorating the marquee, bespoke cocktails and a brightly coloured statue of a horse next to the bar! There was also a beautiful swing adorned with wild flowers that was the perfect spot for some couple portraits.

An Enchanting Garden Party: A Magical Wedding Marquee.
A marquee in the garden created an intimate setting for the wedding breakfast and after guests enjoyed drinks & canapes to the sounds of violinists they were invited to sit for dinner. As a reportage wedding photographer one of my favourite parts of a wedding is the speeches, it’s a wonderful time to capture real emotions and candid wedding photographs of you and all your guests laughing and enjoying the day. Kelly & Dan’s speeches did not disappoint!

The Monkey Club: A Bespoke Night Club!
To top off what was already an absolutely amazing day Dan had commissioned for a bespoke night club to be built at their home as a surprise for all the guests – equipped with its own opening ceremony! The vibrant ‘Monkey Club’ created an unforgettable experience for everyone with dazzling lights, awesome music, ice sculptures, a giant rocket, shot girls and an electrifying dance floor – As a documentary wedding photography I absolutely loved immersing myself in the dance-floor and capturing all the action as it unfolded around me!
