There’s nothing quite like photographing a wedding where the focus is on fun, laughter, and celebrating with the people who matter most. Becky and Robin’s wedding at Ghyll Barn was exactly that – a relaxed, joy-filled day that ended with one of the most epic dance floors I’ve ever seen!

Becky & Robin’s Fun-Filled Ghyll Barn Wedding
This was my first time shooting at Ghyll Barn, and wow – what a venue! Nestled in the stunning Cumbrian countryside just off the A66 near Appleby, Ghyll Barn is the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern elegance and it’s a truly eco-friendly wedding venue.
With its beautifully restored barn, breathtaking views, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, it’s a dream setting for couples looking for a relaxed yet stylish wedding day. The rolling hills and open landscapes made for some incredible backdrops, adding an extra touch of magic to Becky and Robin’s big day.
From the moment I arrived, it was clear that this wedding was all about having a good time. The morning was full of laughter (and maybe a few happy tears), and Becky looked absolutely stunning as she walked down the aisle to meet Robin. Their ceremony was heartfelt and personal, setting the tone for a day that was all about love and togetherness.












A side note about THAT veil
Fitting in beautifully with the whole Ghyll Barn ethos of creating something new from old and lovingly restoring preloved treasures, it would be remiss of me to not mention Becky’s veil. First worn by it’s original owner, almost exactly 50 years ago to the date, Becky had found her veil along with her second hand dress at Bridal Reloved, Morpeth and didn’t she wear it well?


Back to this glorious Ghyll Barn wedding
As the day unfolded, the atmosphere stayed light, fun, and completely stress-free – exactly how a wedding should be! The speeches had everyone both laughing and tearing up, and even featured a video message from THE Alan Shearer for Robin, who is a huge Newcastle United fan. I will just add that the best man asked me afterwards how his speech was, and I said it was just the perfect length and mix of humour and affection. Check this blog post out for more top tips on speeches.












And then came the dance floor
And oh, what a dance floor it was! The incredible Flat Cap Brass belted banger after banger out, and from the first song to the last, it was packed with guests throwing some serious shapes. If there’s one thing this wedding proved, it’s that a brilliant dance floor can take a celebration to the next level. The energy was unreal, and I had an absolute blast capturing all the hilarious, joy-filled moments as everyone let loose.
Becky and Robin, thank you for letting me be part of your amazing day. If every wedding at Ghyll Barn is this much fun, I can’t wait to be back!
