Wharfedale Grange Wedding Photos, between Harrogate and Harewood in Yorkshire: Vicky + Ricky

Last weekend I joined Vicky + Ricky for their wedding photos at Wharfedale Grange, one of my top 10 Best Yorkshire Barn Wedding venues between Harewood!

Wharfedale Grange is one of Yorkshire’s leading luxury barn wedding venues, surrounded by wildflower meadows and rolling countryside.

I knew when I met these guys we were a match! Vicky has a wicked sense of humour, they have a cuuuuute pooch and as a pair they’re quick to laugh! All a win for me…

What they’re not quick at is getting married! They’ve been engaged for no less than 27 years! (after meeting at the infamous Leeds pub the Chained Bull – an old haunt of mine!)

But that relaxed vibe showed itself as a great flavour at the wedding, which was chilled and chock full of fun*

*Read: Booze!

I dipped between the action with the girls in the secret bridal prep room and Ricky, the boys and their Schnauzer Molly in Wharfedale’s Grade II listed farmhouse. 

After buttonholes and Vicky’s stunning dress were on (and a few final dumbell curls!) we headed down to the ceremony in the North Barn. Out through a hail of confetti the newlyweds emerged for fizz, delicious canapés and a quick round of group pics in front of the rolling hills and meadows.

With a dedicated ceremony room, stylish bar and a huge dining party barn, as well an outdoor sun-trap terrace, it’s perfect for weddings.

After hilarious speeches (& a fun poem from Vicky’s mate Sarah), a delicious wedding breakfast was served in the South Barn, followed by surprise Singing Waiters! Once everyone had caught their breath from conga lines and waving napkins to That’s Amore, it was back out for cocktail hour! Pornstar or Espresso, that is the question?!

Before we knew it it was time to cut the cake, do a dancefloor groupshot have a boogie to ‘Walking on Sunshine’ with confetti cannons firing! 

Then ’cause it was such a glorious sunny evening, everyone headed straight back outside to enjoy ice creams and pizza! 

It was great to join this lovely pair (and Molly!) and fab to be back at Wharfedale Grange (props to Camilla & Emma for all their hard graft in the background).

All in all, you couldn’t have hoped for a nicer couple and a nicer day! The perfect Yorkshire Wedding, and I hope you enjoy my wedding story below from this ace wedding!
