A ROMANTIC BRITISH COUNTRYSIDE WEDDING

AnNA & luke

Anna and Luke always knew they would marry at Drayton House, the Stopford-Sackville family home for over 700 years—now recognised by many as the setting from the film Saltburn.

“The ceremony was incredibly special,” says Anna. “Luke and I did not break contact during the ceremony and every time we got emotional, he would rub my arm or I would squeeze his hand. We couldn’t help but smile.” The newlyweds exited the church to the sound of ringing bells as guests threw flower petals, then drove away as man and wife in a 1935 Drophead Bentley Coupe.

For the reception decor, Anna took cues from a classic English orangery. The tent was covered in canvas panels, large trees, and colourful flowers that stretched the length of the moss-covered tables. The emotional pinnacle of the night came when Luke dedicated a heartfelt speech about his love for his new bride. “I don’t think there was a dry eye in the room,” Anna says. “He moved even the stiffest of upper lips.”

Then, it was time to party. Hidden behind the tent was a secret nightclub, where waiters hovered with espresso martini shots and a band began to play Luke and Anna’s favorite hits. As the night grew longer, a DJ came on and debuted a custom remix of Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s “Murder on the Dancefloor,” a nod to Saltburn’s eye-popping final scene. It was electric!

Anna and Luke’s wedding was a timeless, unforgettable occasion and a complete joy to capture.
