Ed Brown Photography felt very privileged to be asked to photograph a styled shoot at the elegant Nottingham Castle with the wedding venue decor stylist ‘On a Day Like This’.

The theme of the shoot was ‘New Age Vintage’ with inspiration taken from the keywords, natural, elegant, beautiful, exciting, soft, cool, edgy, thought provoking and honest.    

Lots of talented wedding suppliers and brands joined in collaboration on the day to make this shoot the huge success it was including, On a Day Like this- wedding and event stylists, Timeless Couture- bridal, Mrs Umbels- wedding florist, Yummy Little Cakes- wedding cake maker, Polly and Me- wedding stationery and wedding signage, VM hair- wedding hair, Gail Berry- wedding make up and models-Sarah and Samuel.

The stunning wedding venue is a 17th century mansion that is built on the Castle Rock high above the city and is surrounded by a wonderful Victorian park. The wedding venue provides spectacular views of the city and surrounding landscape.

Nottingham Castle is now being offered to wedding couples as a a unique and impressive wedding venue either for a full ceremony, grand reception or for drinks and canapés in the bandstand. Some of the beautiful areas offered to wedding couples for hire are:
