Real Weddings | Burntwood Court Hotel Wedding Photographer | Abbey & Taylor's Wedding | Champagne Shutter Photography

Is Burntwood Court Licensed for Legal Wedding Ceremonies?

Yes, Burntwood Court's Chapel is licensed with Barnsley Register Office. Once booked with Burntwood, you will need to book an appointment at Barnsley Town Hall to give notice of your intent to marry. A ceremony at Burntwood is contingent upon hosting your reception at the hotel. Do also note that Burntwood Court is not an exclusive use venue and that a second wedding can be possible on your day, using the Chapel at a different time before using the other reception space.

How Many Guests Can We Have at Burntwood Court?

Abbey and Taylor opted for the Brierley Suite for their reception (one of two options).

Why Choose Champagne Shutter Photography?

I firmly believe in the right balance of being friendly, along with a professional eye for detail.  You are investing in expertise to ensure elegant heirlooms to keep forever after your wedding, but the best wedding photographs gain their elegance through your comfort with your wedding photographer, so that I can orchestrate the odd tweak, where needed, with no awkwardness.  That’s why I pay close attention to your bespoke plans in our consultations leading up to your wedding and ensure a pre-wedding photography session to further aid your comfort.  It’s from a genuine and authentic connection that the best wedding photography emerges.

With Tom at Champagne Shutter Photography, depending upon your chosen package, you can gain:

Unlimited coverage, usually circa 11 hours

From the curlers going in, to the party in full swing: preparation to dancing coverage, just beyond cake cut and first dance, including twilight couple’s portraits

Arrival to cover details and latter stages of preparation

Ceremony

Groups shots

Family shots

Couple portraits, inc. session at twilight, blue hour, sunset

Initial consultation meeting plus further planning consultation meeting to finalise your itinerary and requirements

Complimentary pre-wedding shoot (circa 2 & ½ hrs) to allow couples to get to know Tom’s approach, so you are comfortable in front of the lens prior to your wedding day – subject to mutually convenient date, (ideally but not exclusively mid-week) – provides photos for wedding save-the-dates, invites, website, or wall art

Skilled curation and editing of your online gallery (circa 600+ images on average)

Couple’s online gallery - download web resolution photos for online use, full resolution photos for prints & wall art orders – couples & family can “favourite” a selection of images to curate ideas for album design

Albums are available as either part of an integrated package or as an additional option later

Guests can enter a password-protected gallery to access and order social media downloads, prints, and wall art, from canvas, to framed, acrylic or metal prints

Couples can opt for two photographers – a second photographer is important if you want to cover more candid photos of friends during afternoon and evening receptions, when I am occupied with portraits elsewhere, and if you want to cover both of your preparations ahead of the ceremony

Every couple is different – and whilst it’s all well and good me extolling the virtues of what I think about portraying your day at a venue, we must make a genuine connection to tell your story!  Check out Champagne Shutter Photography’s approach here.
