Introduction

Farnham, Surrey, is a dream location for weddings, offering everything from grand, luxury estates to charming boutique venues and I am so lucky to live just down the road in Fleet, Hampshire. As a wedding photographer, I’ve had the pleasure of capturing love stories in some of the most beautiful settings this area has to offer. Whether you are planning a lavish celebration, an elegant yet budget-friendly day, or a unique and intimate affair, there’s a perfect venue for you.


In this guide, I’ll take you through 10 of my favourite wedding venues in Farnham, Surrey.


Luxury Wedding Venues in Farnham

Grandeur, history, and stunning outdoor spaces.

Location: Northbrook Park, GU10 5EU

Northbrook Park is a breathtaking 18th-century manor house surrounded by lush gardens, a serene lake, and even resident peacocks! The Orangery and Vine Room provide a bright, elegant setting for ceremonies and receptions.


I love seperate rooms for ceremony & reception, it's a much smoother experience as a guest and leaves less time to fill when turning spaces over. The frontage here is to die for!

Historic charm with royal elegance.

A venue fit for royalty, Farnham Castle offers a mix of historic architecture, grand ballrooms, and spectacular grounds. The stunning Lantern Hall is perfect for ceremonies, while the Great Hall sets the stage for a lavish reception. I am simply obsessed with the fireplaces and staircases and theres a bit of a fairytale feel about this venue that I love.

Why Choose a Local Wedding Photographer?

Booking a local wedding photographer like me means you get someone who knows the area, venues and is going to have no problems at all finding and getting to your location! I also love working with local brides because it means we can grab a coffee for your pre wedding meeting :)

hi! I'm cat and i am a full time wedding photographer
(and a little bit of a photography geek!)
 
I started taking photos as a teenager, my Dad was a wedding photographer and I would often help him. In 2021 I left my corporate job with a dream and hope that I could make photography a full time job. Since then I have been pouring my heart and soul into this business and have been honoured to be chosen as wedding photographer for so many lovely couples as well as being a portrait and event photographer.  
​
I TAKE CLASSIC, TIMELESS, DOCUMENTARY STYLE PHOTOGRAPHS WITH MINIMAL INTRUSION

 

But I will step in and offer gentle guidance when it's right to do so, I have learned over the years to read the room, anticipate the next move, hold space when needed and offer support when I can.

​

aRE YOU LOOKING FOR A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER?
When choosing a wedding photographer, consider their style, experience, portfolio, and reviews from previous clients. It's also important to discuss pricing, availability, and any specific requests you may have.
 
Don't forget to meet with them in person to ensure you have good chemistry and feel comfortable with their approach.
​

Once you have narrowed down your list of potential wedding photographers, it's a good idea to ask them some key questions to help you make your final decision.

 

Here are a few questions to consider:

  • What is your photography style? Do you prefer a more traditional approach or a more candid, documentary style?

  • Do you have experience with weddings of a similar size and style to mine?

  • Can I see a full gallery of a recent wedding you photographed? This will give you a better sense of their consistency and quality of work.

  • Do you have backup equipment in case something goes wrong on the day of the wedding?

  • How do you handle difficult lighting situations (e.g. low light, harsh sunlight, indoor vs. outdoor)? This will help you gauge their technical expertise.

  • What is included in your packages? Are there any additional fees I should be aware of (e.g. travel, overtime)?

  • How long will it take to receive my photos after the wedding? Will they be edited and retouched?

  • Can you accommodate any special requests I have (e.g. specific shots, family portraits)?

  • How do you ensure that you capture all of the important moments on the day of the wedding?

​

By asking these questions and having an open and honest conversation with your wedding photographer, you can ensure that you find the right fit for your big day.
