Le Petit Chateau is a stunning hotel and wedding venue in Otterburn, Northumberland. The old hotel has been made to look like a beautiful French chateau inside and has vast dreamy gardens and a lake outside too.

Jade, Matt and their girls waited through covid and a lot of stressful reschedules for their big day but the sun shone for them and boy was it worth the wait.

Here are a few photographs from the getting ready and the ceremony part of the day, check out the gorgeous bridal suite (it has a huge free-standing copper bath!) and the huge French mantelpiece in the ceremony room.

As this was in June 2021, masks still had to be worn during the ceremony. The masks were coordinated with the bridesmaid’s dresses which made them blend in nicely, and luckily the masks could come off when everyone retreated to the gardens.

I spent the whole day at Le Petit Chateau, from Jade getting ready right through until after the dancing.

After the ceremony there were canapes and drinks for the adults, then ice creams and candy floss which were very popular with the children.

I still managed to prize them away from the ice cream for these quick shots!

The afternoon teas were served with edible flowers, they were so pretty and tasted amazing!

Matt gave a great speech to everyone then we went outside for some couple’s photographs of just Jade and Matt.

There was a fire pit in the water?!

The beautiful gardens seemed to go on forever. Lots of the guests took a nice peaceful, romantic walk after their dinner too.

Everyone was back in time for the dancing in the ballroom!
