Sparkford Hall Wedding | Sarah & Dan
Sarah & Dan’s Sparkford Hall Wedding was one of the most incredible weddings that I’ve shot. They took every element of Sparkford Hall and made it their own. Sarah & Dan are both Captain & First mate on a super yacht and personalised their wedding with a nautical theme and love of the ocean. Their moto for the wedding ‘Work like a Captain, party like a pirate‘
There was also rum… Lots & lots of rum!
Sparkford Hall Wedding | Sarah & Dan
Forget about the traditional wedding norms, because Sarah & Dan’s Sparkford Hall Wedding took the rulebook and tossed it aside for an unforgettable weekend like no other.
Sparkford Hall is not your average wedding venue. And that was a perfect fit for Sarah & Dan as they wanted something different and decadent for their wedding. And, that’s exactly my kind of wedding!
Sparkford Hall is described as ‘Somerset’s Most Exclusive Private Venue…’ It’s a grand Georgian mansion set in secluded grounds shared only with a pair of tame Llamas, a few ponies and a brace of ducks. And it makes for an incredible location for a weddings. Sparkford gace Sarah & Dan the freedom and creativity for their weekend.
As I arrived at Sparkford on Friday evening as guests were arriving and the final preparations were happening. The post party rum had already began to flow and as the sun set, people gathered around the outdoor fire pit.
The next morning Sparkford came alive, filled with amazing prep, both bride and groom. An amazing ceremony in the house, then out side for lawn games and champagne.
Following the wedding breakfast and speeches was the party… Now wedding parties are always an important part of the day but this one took it to the next level, and just when everyone thought the party was over Sarah & Dan surprised everyone with the venue’s cellar bar which had been transformed into a Rum Shack.
The following day saw the wedding party blow away their hangovers and continue to celebrate. Touch rugby, inflatable balls, a bbq, and of course, more rum.
Their Sparkford Hall Wedding was more that just a ceremony, it was a celebration and an experience that brought family & friends together.
