Coombe Lodge Bristol Wedding Photographer

Sue & Toni’s Coombe Lodge Bristol Wedding

Sue and Toni chose Coombe Lodge for its countryside setting and calm, elegant atmosphere - and it suited their day perfectly.

Set just outside Bristol, Coombe Lodge gives you space. Rolling views. Open terraces. Landscaped gardens. It feels private without being remote.

Their wedding had a relaxed, confident energy from the start. Guests settled into the setting quickly, drinks in hand, conversations already flowing before the ceremony began.

It felt easy. And that makes a difference.

A Ceremony Framed by Light and Landscape

The ceremony space at Coombe Lodge works beautifully for natural photography. Large windows allow light to move cleanly across the room without feeling harsh or theatrical.

As Sue and Toni exchanged vows, the room felt grounded and present. No overproduction. No distraction. Just the two of them, surrounded by the people who matter most.

When they walked back down the aisle together, the shift in energy was immediate - applause, laughter, that collective exhale once it’s official.

Outside, confetti on the terrace gave everyone a chance to celebrate properly before drifting into the gardens.

How the Day Flowed at Coombe Lodge

One of the strengths of a Coombe Lodge wedding is how naturally the timeline works.

Ceremony indoors.
Drinks and mingling on the terrace.
Portraits in the gardens and surrounding grounds.
Reception and evening celebration inside.

Everything connects.

There’s no awkward transport gap or energy drop. Guests stay engaged, and the day builds steadily rather than restarting between locations.

We kept portraits relaxed and efficient, using the gardens and countryside backdrop without taking Sue and Toni away from their guests for long stretches.

That rhythm kept the atmosphere intact.

My Approach

When I photograph a Coombe Lodge wedding, I focus on how the day actually feels.

The quiet glances before the ceremony.
The laughter during speeches.
The shift when the dancefloor opens up.

I don’t over-direct or turn it into a staged shoot. The venue already gives you atmosphere. My job is to document it honestly.
