Vicky and Mark
Wedding at Butley Priory, Suffolk
Butley Priory is an unique venue full of history which is set in Woodbridge, Suffolk . It was described by Vogue as “one of the most romantic houses in England” and one of my most favorite places to work.
Butley priory definitely has that WOW factor, as soon as you drive into their ground. The gardens, fields and forest around it , makes it more beautiful and you feel hidden away from the world. When you are there you feel like you have stepped into history.
Butley priory has gorgeous light rooms with tall and unique ceilings that can be used for your ceremony or your wedding breakfast. It has beautiful stairs which lead to the top floor with romantic looking bedrooms and breathtaking giant windows (I love using windows for photos every time I am there).
Vicky's and Mark's story
"First date 19/3/2016 Mark took me to a tapas restaurant for lunch except the restaurant wasn’t there! He checked online on his phone and it had moved so we had to go find it …. A bit awkward on a first date lol. We found it though and had a lovely time chatting and getting to know each other.
After 18 months Mark said he was applying for a job in Suffolk (we lived in Lancaster). It was a leap of faith but one year later we said goodbye to family and friends and made the move."
How he proposed
“Mark proposed on valentine's day 2020 by writing it in my valentines card….. which I didn’t read at first, I read the first bit then put the card down because we’d written the same thing! He said read the rest lol. “
"We Got married after covid had calmed down and wanted it to be just close family and friends not just to celebrate our marriage but for everyone to be able to come together and spend a memorable few days together. We loved Butley Priory, it was the first and only place we viewed."
