Carolyn & Allie | Carradine Barns | Wedding

Curradine Barns Wedding Photographer

I was lucky enough to be Carolyn and Allie’s Curradine Barns wedding photographer a few weeks ago. It was great to return to this beautiful venue again for a second time. I have photographed one other Curradine Barns wedding and so know the venue pretty well now. Carolyn and Allie flew in from the USA for their wedding and with just 20 guests it was one of the most intimate weddings I have photographed. They decided to return to the UK to get married because Carolyn grew up here.

Allie’s wore a green dress made by Maggie Evans Designs and it goes down as one of the most unique I have seen. It was a first for me but being Filipino she easily pulled it off. Her shoes are from DSW and Carolyn’s suit and shoes are from Men’s Warehouse. They had guitarist Stuart Toogood from Occasional guitars play during the ceremony and also through the afternoon. He’s a particularly talented chap and well worth a look if you’re searching for acoustic wedding music.

The beautiful flowers were arranged by Jane Edmonds and seeing as Allie is a botanist it was pretty important that they looked amazing! Their wedding was pretty unconventional and non traditional as both Allie and Carolyn got ready together. I think this was one of my favourite moments from the day because it was so relaxed and aI got to know them both a little better before the ceremony.

I loved how enthusiastic they both were for couple photos. When I asked them to walk through a dirty field they just went for it! We also caught a few couple photos in the evening and a few right after the wedding ceremony.

Thank you both so much for having me along as your wedding photographer. I hope the photos bring it all back for decades to come! And you have as much love and happiness as I saw on your wedding day.
