As a professional photographer, I’ve had the opportunity to capture weddings at countless venues, but there’s something truly special about Voewood. Nestled in the heart of North Norfolk, this venue is a treasure trove of unique features that make every wedding an unforgettable experience. From its quirky decor to its stunning outdoor spaces, Voewood offers endless possibilities for creating beautiful and memorable wedding photos. Let me take you through why we love photographing weddings at this remarkable venue.

A Unique and Quirky Venue

Eclectic Decor and Atmosphere

Voewood is a venue like no other. As soon as you step inside, you’re greeted by an eclectic mix of pop memorabilia and neon lights. This quirky decor sets a fun and vibrant tone for the day. Whether it’s the vintage posters adorning the walls or the neon signs casting a colorful glow, every detail adds to the unique charm of the venue.

One of my favorite memories from Voewood involves a couple who were huge music fans. They were thrilled to find posters of their favorite bands throughout the venue. We spent a fun-filled hour capturing shots of them next to these posters, their faces lighting up with joy and nostalgia.

Sunken Garden and Quirky Indoor Areas

The sunken garden at Voewood is a hidden gem. It’s a perfect spot for intimate ceremonies or a quiet moment away from the hustle and bustle of the day. The lush greenery and tranquil atmosphere make it an ideal backdrop for romantic portraits. One bride I worked with wanted a whimsical feel for her photos, and the sunken garden provided just that. We captured some magical shots of her twirling in her dress, surrounded by the garden’s natural beauty.

Inside, Voewood continues to surprise with its quirky indoor areas. From cozy nooks filled with books to a snooker table that invites a bit of playful competition, every corner of this venue offers something different. These indoor spaces are perfect for capturing candid moments of guests enjoying themselves, adding a personal and informal touch to the wedding album.

The Subterranean Bar

The subterranean bar at Voewood is another standout feature. With its cool, underground vibe, it’s a fantastic spot for some edgy and fun photos. I remember one wedding where the couple and their friends gathered in the bar for a few celebratory drinks. The laughter, the toasts, and the clinking glasses all made for some great candid shots that captured the spirit of the celebration perfectly.

Endless Photography Opportunities

Beautiful Walks and Water Features

Voewood’s grounds are a photographer’s dream. The numerous walks and water features provide endless opportunities for stunning and diverse shots. Whether it’s a serene pond reflecting the couple’s love or a winding path leading to new adventures, these outdoor features add depth and beauty to wedding photos.

I once had a couple who loved nature and wanted their photos to reflect their passion. We spent part of their wedding day exploring Voewood’s grounds, capturing them strolling hand-in-hand along the picturesque paths and pausing by the water features for some romantic portraits. The resulting photos were not only beautiful but also deeply meaningful to the couple.

Perfect Backdrops for Every Moment

From the grand to the intimate, Voewood offers a variety of backdrops that cater to every moment of the wedding day. The venue’s character shines through in every shot, whether it’s the bride getting ready in a charmingly decorated room or the couple sharing their first dance under the twinkling lights.

During one wedding, the couple had a unique first dance planned. They danced in the main hall, surrounded by their guests. The combination of the venue’s decor and the warm lighting created a magical atmosphere that made the photos of their dance truly special.

Personal Touches and Flexibility

Candid and Formal Shots

Voewood is incredibly accommodating to the needs and desires of the couple. I remember a wedding that was initially planned to be entirely candid, with no formal shots. The couple wanted their day to be relaxed and natural, capturing genuine moments without the pressure of posed photos. However, on the day of the wedding, some parents requested formal shots for the grandparents.

Voewood’s flexible spaces made it easy to incorporate these formal shots into the day without disrupting the flow of events. We quickly found a beautiful spot for the family portraits and were able to accommodate everyone’s wishes while still maintaining the candid and relaxed atmosphere the couple wanted. The venue’s variety of settings ensured that both the formal and candid photos were equally stunning.

Stylish and Visionary Couples

One of the things that makes photographing at Voewood so enjoyable is the stylish and visionary couples who choose this venue. These couples often have a clear idea of what they want, and their creativity combined with Voewood’s unique features results in some truly amazing photos.

I recall one wedding where the couple had a vintage theme. They were dressed in classic attire, and their attention to detail was impeccable. We made use of Voewood’s vintage decor to create a series of photos that looked like they were straight out of a bygone era. The couple’s vision, paired with the venue’s character, made for a fantastic collaboration.

Fun and Memorable Experiences

A Day Full of Laughter and Joy

Weddings at Voewood are always a lot of fun. The venue’s unique charm and diverse spaces create an environment where guests can relax and enjoy themselves. This relaxed atmosphere translates into the photos, capturing genuine smiles and moments of joy.

At one wedding, the couple had set up a photo booth in one of Voewood’s quirky indoor areas. Guests donned silly hats and props, creating a series of hilarious and heartwarming photos. The laughter and fun were palpable, and these candid shots became some of the couple’s favorite memories from the day.

Every time I leave Voewood, I’m already looking forward to the next opportunity to return. The venue’s unique charm, combined with the wonderful couples and guests, makes each wedding a truly memorable experience. It’s no wonder that Voewood is one of my all-time favorite venues in North Norfolk.
