On Saturday, I was at The Hospitium in York, for the wedding of Laura & Stephen. What a beautiful day, too warm to be cold, maybe a little cool still ( it is April! ) to be too warm but just right to enjoy the outside as well as the inside of this wonderful Yorkshire Venue.

Sutton on the Forest, near York, is another one of the beautiful villages in Yorkshire that I cycle through regularly.  I’ve often passed Sutton Park without stopping as you can’t see that much of it from the road.  Since Caroline & Nick’s wedding, I’ve learned that there’s an excellent tea room there, so it’ll be a regular stop from now on!

I pride myself on having shot at some of the best venues that Yorkshire has to offer.  Skipbridge Country Weddings just outside York though, that was a new one.   I checked the venue out previously, I like to know what I’m walking into. What an outstanding venue!  The cottages for the bridal party and guests to get ready and stay over in were beautiful.

I've photographed weddings at the Hospitium many times before.  One of things that I really like about it is that the people who run it make it look different every time.  On the outside, it looks the same -  a fantastic Roman building in the heart of York.  Inside, they have personalised it to match the bride & grooms requests. The other thing that makes it one of the best venues in York is the Museum Gardens.
