Karen and Ageo’s Epic Wedding Day At Capesthorne Hall
Karen and Ageo’s epic wedding at Capesthorne Hall in Siddington was packed with personality — from the groom arriving in an Aston Martin to sparklers in the evening, with all-day coverage from 9:30 am to past 10 pm. As your Cheshire wedding photographer, Capesthorne Hall‘s Jacobean architecture, period paintings and double lakes make it one of my favourite historic venues to photograph at.

About Capesthorne Hall — a Jacobean Cheshire wedding venue near Macclesfield and Alderley Edge
Capesthorne Hall is in Siddington, Cheshire — near Macclesfield and Alderley Edge. The house and its private chapel were built in the early 18th century to Neoclassical designs by William Smith. Extended in the 18th century with an orangery and drawing room; remodelled in the 1830s by Edward Blore in Jacobean style; the orangery was replaced by a Joseph Paxton conservatory in 1837. After a major fire in 1861 Anthony Salvin rebuilt the house in Jacobean style.
- Beautiful Jacobean architecture and a private chapel
- Paintings, period interiors and photogenic spots throughout
- A lake (in fact two) and a bridge
- Sparkler send-off capability in the evening
- Properly historic — one of Cheshire’s most distinctive wedding venues
Karen and Ageo’s wedding day at Capesthorne Hall
Aston Martin arrival
The day started with the groom arriving at Capesthorne Hall in an Aston Martin — exactly the kind of arrival that sets the tone for a properly epic wedding day.
Bridal prep and the ceremony in the private chapel
Karen’s bridal prep was warm and full of family; the ceremony in Capesthorne’s private chapel was atmospheric — period architecture, beautiful natural light through the windows and a heartfelt service.
Couple portraits — the bridge, the lakes and the period interiors
Capesthorne Hall gives you huge variety for couple portraits — the bridge over the lake, the historic facade, the period interiors with paintings on the walls. We worked all of it.
Wedding breakfast, speeches and sparklers
The wedding breakfast and speeches were warm; the evening sparkler send-off at Capesthorne Hall against the Jacobean facade was one of the highlight images of the day.
Thank you Karen and Ageo — congratulations to you both.
