Winstanley House Wedding Photographer | Best Leicester Natural Documentary and Creative Imagery

Winstanley House a wonderful lavish venue in the heart of the Midlands perfect for Meghann and Francis to say ‘I do’

Meghann and Francis tied the knot in opulence at the boutique hotel and lavish venue Winstanley House, nestled in the heart of Leicestershire. With a beautiful autumnal theme, every detail of this wedding was executed to impeccability. As nature was their inspiration, it was fascinating to seek every fine detail, and become immersed in the earthly essence of this dazzling day. 

A Leicestershire Historic Country House venue with charm and a contemporary vibe perfect for modern couples!

Situated just two miles from Leicester city centre lies the breathtaking Winstanley House and set amidst 160 acres of luxuriant parkland, it was clearly an exquisite setting for Meghann and Francis’ special commemoration. Having the convenience of a city wedding and the plushness and peacefulness of a country house, this grand, historic venue possesses a timeless charm with a modern and fresh restoration.

Winstanley House, having the best of both worlds with a delightful combination of Georgian and contemporary architecture was ideal for this stylish couple’s naturalistic yet contemporary vibe. The exclusive Winstanley House has grand traditional features, elegant touches and stunning grounds which made it a perfect setting for Megan and Francis’ special day! The Ballrooms offer panoramic views of the gorgeous grounds and access onto a private terrace and for either intimate and grand civil ceremonies.

With spectacular DIY projects such as the incredibly structured table plan, to the superb stationery, handmade by Meghann’s Auntie herself, it was great to observe and encapsulate every ornate ingredient. 

The bride sparkled in her David Tutera Gown and dazzling Jenny Packham shoes

The ceremony was heart-warming and beguilingly decorated with extravagant and classy floral displays, and the bright room was a perfect setting for this couple to say ‘I do’. The bride sparkled in her David Tutera gown and dazzling Jenny Packham shoes, and with make up by Kaye Salmon, Meghann was glowing.

An Autumnal themed celebration with Gorgeous detailing which Epitomised the season

The autumnal theme was weaved within every part of this day from pinecone table décor and cake to the picturesque surroundings that epitomized this beautiful season.

With shades of red, yellow, brown and magenta colouring the day, it was immensely gratifying to be able to capture such a detail steered wedding.

The Luxurious Winstanley House a fantastic reception venue! An occasion full of happiness, beer ping pong, hilarity and partying

Alongside the beauty was fun, partying and an abundance of happiness, with lots of personal touches that emulated the couple’s vibrant character, such as the ‘I bet you look good on the Dancefloor’ sign and of course, the beer pong! Throughout the speeches, both heart-warming and hilarious moments were captured plenteously and love and joy filled the atmosphere on this momentous day.
