Burghley House Wedding Photographer – David Stubbs

Scroll

I think I have pretty much the best job in the world. Being a wedding photographer at Burghley House is just a dream come true. I was born in Stamford, the local town and grew up there. Burghley House is one of the largest houses in the entire world and a place that holds many events through the year including the horse trials. Although I now live further north, I love travelling to the area to photograph weddings and charge nothing extra for travel.

Weddings at Burghley House

Whether you are having your ceremony at Burghley House, or having it somewhere else and coming here for your reception, this venue is as good as it gets. It now offers two incredible locations to get married, either in the Great Hall, or the Summer House which is situated on the South Lawns. You will see wedding photos from both these magical places below.

Below you will see a variety of photos from different weddings taken at Burghley House.

The Summer House On The South Lawns

New! if you are having a small wedding you have the option of having your celebration in the Summer House which is situated at the back of the south lawns. What a stunning location to have your wedding. Burghley House really does offer it all. You will see a selection of photos of this in the gallery above.

Drinks Reception at Burghley House

Burghley House limited the number of weddings is has a year because it has a busy calendar of events. It’s so great to be one of the lucky photographers to have a chance to photograph a wedding at Burghley House. The wedding reception was held in the orangery, with the rose garden outside for wedding guests to enjoy drinks outside in the sun. The couple headed outside for some more photos in the gardens, what an super setting. They also headed up ‘Hell’s Staircase’ before having their wedding breakfast in the Great Hall.

Wedding Photography at this Historic Mansion

Burghley House, with its grand Elizabethan architecture and extensive parkland, is an exceptional backdrop for wedding photographs. The majestic facade, adorned with intricate stone carvings and tall chimneys, exudes historical grandeur. Inside, lavish state rooms with ornate ceilings, antique furnishings, and expansive windows provide a luxurious setting for elegant portraits. The beautifully landscaped gardens, featuring fountains, sculptures, and serene water features, offer diverse and picturesque photo opportunities. The combination of Burghley House’s architectural splendour and stunning natural surroundings ensures that every wedding photograph radiates timeless beauty and sophistication.

What an incredible wedding to be part of. I’d love to capture wedding images at Burghley House every weekend. Thank you and huge congrats to David & Illinca, and also the staff at Burghley House for your hospitality. If you are getting married at the house, or anywhere in the Stamford area then please get in touch to discuss your wedding photography as I do not charge anything for travel.
