Jess and Matt’s wedding at Gate Street Barn was a masterclass in how to throw a day that’s both beautiful and full of personality. From the laughter during the speeches to the golden hour portraits in the garden, the whole day felt effortless! Gate Street Barn is one of those venues that really delivers when it comes to photographs. Jess and Matt made the most of it, starting with a brilliant pre-ceremony moment where they both read notes written on the soles of their shoes. Capturing them in the same shot while they couldn’t see each other was do much fun. The ceremony took place in the barn, which they’d decorated simply but beautifully. Afterward, guests mingled on the lawn while Jess and Matt headed off for photos, including a trip to the woods in Matt’s Land Rover—just as fun as it sounds. Later, during golden hour, we popped out into the gardens for more portraits. The soft evening light, combined with the gardens’ natural beauty, was perfect. I alway encourage couples to nip out in the evening for a little photo session during golden hour, it’s also such a nice chance for a couple to have some time alone. Gate Street is definitely up there with one of my favourite venues this year; a relaxed yet stunning setting, spaces that flow naturally, and plenty of options for photographs in and out.
