Clearwell Castle Wedding

Capturing Natalie and Mark's beautiful winter wedding at Clearwell Castle was an absolute dream. This exclusive-use venue nestled in the Forest of Dean was the perfect backdrop for their romantic, cozy celebration. The morning began in the Keepers Cottage, where Natalie prepared with her bridal party. The transition to the grand Gresham Suite set the tone for the elegance of the day. From the heartfelt father-of-the-bride reveal at the bottom of the staircase to the charming ceremony in the castle's stunning hall. Their solo artist provided a magical soundtrack as Natalie and Mark exchanged vows surrounded by close family and friends who had traveled from afar to celebrate their love.

Clearwell Castle truly shone during the reception, and despite the rain, guests enjoyed the warmth of its cozy fireplaces and the charm of its historic architecture. Dinner was served in the grand dining hall, followed by moving speeches that brought laughter and happy tears. Natalie and Mark’s first dance marked the start of an unforgettable evening filled with music, dancing, and love. As the DJ took over, the castle’s mood shifted to a vibrant, fun-filled atmosphere, bringing their romantic winter wedding vision to life. I feel so honoured to have been part of their incredible day at Clearwell Castle—it was everything a wedding should be and more!
