Yorkshire Country House Wedding
Angie and Hei’s Yorkshire Country House Wedding was truly something to behold! The fabulous pair had flown in from Hong Kong to get married at the majestic Castle Howard and they really did it in style. Angie and Hei wanted to get some special portraits before the ceremony so we arranged a First Look with the pair and then had loads of fun capturing this stylish couple all over the grounds of Castle Howard. Once finished our beautiful bride went to finish getting ready in the exquisite Irish Room. She had three changes of outfits during the wedding day: her stunning white dress which was used for the ceremony and portraits, her purple dress for the reception and pink dress for the first dance! When she was ready she swept across the Antique Passage leading to Castle Howard’s great hall to meet her waiting soon-to-be husband. After an emotional ceremony with their friends and family under the ornate domed roof of the hall they all hopped on the mini tram to be taken down to the lake and to watch the sun set on their glorious day. After some bubbly and relaxation everyone took to the Long Gallery for dinner, hilarious speeches and a romantic (choreographed!) first dance in the gorgeous surroundings.
Huge thanks to our beautiful couple for letting us be a part of their very special Yorkshire Country House Wedding day and to the staff of Castle Howard for their always impeccable service and care.

It is a rare but deeply appreciated occasion when we find ourselves photographing in our own hometown of Scarborough. We love travelling the world, documenting stories across the globe, but there is a distinct power in the old adage: there’s no place like home. For us, the environment is always the stage, but the people…
It is very easy as a wedding photographer to walk around blind to the "mundane" - to dismiss certain elements as unimportant and miss the gift right in front of you. At York Place, we believe those overlooked elements often build the most important stories. We don't just look for the "perfect" moments; we look…
One of the most positive shifts in the wedding industry over the last few years has been the departure from the "one size fits all" schedule. Before 2020, our days were almost exclusively 12-16 hour marathons. We still love the endurance of a full-day story, but we’ve embraced the rise of different coverage lengths. People…
