Perfect Winter Wedding Venue

I had the pleasure of photographing a wedding at Falcon Manor, where about 80 guests attended during the day and around 100 in the evening. It was one of the best weddings of 2024, and here's why!

Falcon Manor is a perfectly-sized wedding venue that comfortably accommodates 80-100 guests, creating the cozy, vibrant atmosphere of an amazing winter house party where everyone is having a fantastic time. The slightly crowded vibe adds to the party's charm, making it feel lively and full of energy. A live band contributed a lot to achieve that atmosphere as well.

As a wedding photographer, I can confidently say that Falcon Manor is a dream location for capturing stunning images. The venue's layout and design offer endless opportunities for creative shots, ensuring every moment of your special day is beautifully documented.

The main reception room is conveniently located next to a small living room, the main entrance with a real fireplace, and a spacious bar area. This layout keeps your guests in one central area, ensuring the party stays together and everyone enjoys the celebration to the fullest. Falcon Manor truly excels as a wedding venue, providing the perfect balance between intimacy and festivity.

Nestled on the outskirts of the bustling market town of Settle and surrounded by the stunning Yorkshire countryside, Falcon Manor is also an ideal base for exploration and relaxation. If you plan to stay after the wedding, you can choose from 16 uniquely designed bedrooms and explore the surrounding park at your leisure. The scenic beauty of Falcon Manor makes it a perfect location for both the wedding day and a peaceful retreat afterward.

The Rafters Suite, where the bride prepares, is both spacious and luxurious, making it a must-book for your pre-wedding stay. This suite adds an extra touch of elegance to the bridal preparations, ensuring a comfortable and memorable start to the big day.

I had the pleasure of photographing Holly and Neil’s wedding at Falcon Manor. The ceremony took place at a charming church in a nearby village, followed by a reception at the venue. If you prefer a civil ceremony, Falcon Manor is fully licensed to host it on-site, adding to its appeal as a versatile and accommodating wedding venue.

The back garden provides a stunning backdrop for group portraits. Although we encountered some rain in March, we captured beautiful indoor portraits, including a couple’s shoot, thanks to the venue's elegant staircase and beautifully decorated reception room. Even in winter, Falcon Manor's charm shines through, making it a perfect winter wedding venue.

Falcon Manor also allows for sparkler exits, and we concluded the evening with a stunning sparkler shoot! These moments added a magical touch to the end of the celebration, providing unforgettable memories and photographs.
