Why Couples Love St Audries Park

​

Couples consistently choose St Audries Park for several reasons:

• Exclusive-use privacy — you and your guests enjoy the house and grounds without interruption.

• Wow-factor Orangery — a light, glass-fronted ceremony space with a dramatic aisle and beautiful natural light.

• All-in-one estate — ceremony, drinks, photos, meal, party and overnight stays all in one place.

• Historic charm + comfort — period architecture balanced with modern comforts and a dedicated team.

• Late-night party vibe — capacity for a large evening guest list and dedicated party spaces.​

​

From an emotional perspective, couples talk about the “fairytale manor house” feel, the warmth of the team and the sense of having their own private estate for a day.

Tips for Your Wedding Photos & Film at St Audries Park

​

To make the most of your wedding photos and film at St Audries Park:

1. Plan your Orangery entrance
   Walk slowly, look up and enjoy the moment — it gives both photographer and videographer time to capture reactions down the aisle.

2. Schedule golden-hour portraits
   Check sunset times for your wedding date and build in 15–20 minutes to slip out to the lawns and parkland for soft, flattering light.

3. Consider a church + Orangery combination
   If you’re marrying at St Etheldreda’s and returning to the house, we’ll plan for arrival footage, confetti and transition shots between church and estate.

4. Use the house for winter/wet-weather portraits
   The staircase, hallways and cosy rooms work brilliantly for indoor portraits if the weather turns.

5. Think about speeches and sound
   Let us know who’s speaking and when; we’ll discreetly mic the right people and coordinate with the venue’s PA to keep audio crystal-clear.

6. Allow 5–10 minutes at night
   A short night-time session outside the house or Orangery gives you some dramatic final shots for the end of your film.
