Sophie and Sam with their spectacular Summer wedding at Pennard Hill Farm, Somerset
Sophie & Sam // Pennard Hill Farm
Sophie and Sam’s summer wedding at Pennard Hill Farm had that easy, laid back feel that suits the venue so well. Set on the hills just outside Glastonbury, Pennard Hill Farm is known as a relaxed Somerset wedding venue with big views, open skies and spaces that work brilliantly for outdoor ceremonies and sociable receptions. The farm has become a favourite for couples who want something informal but still beautifully run, with views that stretch right across the countryside and, on a clear day, over the famous Glastonbury Festival site.
Sophie and Sam were lucky enough to have a gorgeous outside wedding ceremony. There is often a peak of emotion at the start of the wedding ceremony, just before the couple join together (I certainly remember nearly being overwhelmed when I saw my wife Francesca coming down the the aisle on our wedding day!) and Sam needed a second to gather himself, which showed how much it meant to him. By the time they were walking back down the aisle the sense of joy was obvious with huge smiles from both of them.
Afterwards everyone gathered for reception drinks while taking in those wide views, chatting and soaking up the sunshine. Sam is an awesome musician (check out Samuel Jack, he’s an incredibly talented singer songwriter!) and music was always going to play a big part in the day, so The Enrichments were a perfect choice to keep the celebrations going later on. Sophie’s exquisite dress was by Caroline Castigliano and it suited her relaxed elegance perfectly. Beautiful bouquets and flowers in the tipi were by Isabloom adding colour without overpowering the space. Ada Films captured the day on video. It was a summer wedding that felt personal, fun and very much the vibe that you get with a wedding at Pennard Hill Farm. I can’t wait to come back later this year!
