Alrewas Hayes Wedding Photography

Alrewas Hayes is a luxury, country manor house wedding venue in rural Staffordshire. A stunning Grade II listed Manor House that sits in estate grounds of around 100 acres. Over the years, I’ve photographed lots of weddings here, in all seasons, so I have heaps of experience working at this beautiful venue. It’s one of my favourite venues and has so many different areas for beautiful wedding photography.

5 REASONS TO CHOOSE ALREWAS HAYES FOR YOUR WEDDING

1. Light filled ceremony room – You have a choice of spaces for your ceremony, depending on the number of your guests. The Orangery, is my personal favourite. It has capacity for 100 and is a gorgeous light filled room with arched floor to ceiling windows and wooden flooring. It’s perfect for light, bright wedding photos

2. Onsite accommodation – There are 11 bedrooms, located in the main house, the lodge and coach house. Great for immediate family and/or your bridal party. The Bridal Suite, is an absolutely stunning room, with lots of space. It’s expensively stylish with a huge, indulgent bathroom. A lot of Brides move across to the Bridal Suite to get into their dress, once they’ve spent the morning in the make up room getting ready.

3. Choice of spaces for your wedding meal – There is the newly refurbished Lakeside Marquee, or the Orangery, if you’re having a smaller wedding. The Lakeside Marquee is no ordinary marquee. It is fitted with huge crystal chandeliers, soft white drapes and a solid wooden floor. It really has a luxurious feel.

4. Choice of photo locations. The grounds are extensive so there are endless options for your wedding photography, especially your couple portraits. The front of the house and driveway, the lake, the courtyard and all of the fields surrounding the property. The options are endless.

5. The Courtyard – This is the main outdoor space for your drinks reception. Think of English roses, Lavender and Silver Birch trees. It also has the advantage of the courtyard canopy, which is perfect if you have rain or just to give some shade from the sun. There’s seating for your guests and festoon lighting, which looks really pretty at night.
