sustainability at hedsor house
One thing I absolutely love about Hedsor House? The way it’s being run by a management team that’s committed to protecting the planet! Officially a low-carbon workplace since 2019, Hedsor House uses low energy LED lighting (where possible), in-house reusable glass water bottles in its rooms, efficient waste management, and gas-fired heating systems, and a compost centre.
Here’s a fun fact. Did you know they also produce their own honey? Hedsor House’s wild honey is “collected by bees from the wildflower meadows throughout the Hedsor Estate”. Personally, I think they make great wedding guest welcome gifts!


top photographer tips for your hedsor house wedding
make the most of the light-filled rooms
You’ll want to get your hair and make-up done in the bridal dressing room. But make sure your hairstylist and make-up artist clears the dressing table by the time they’re done. With a clutter-free dressing table and lots of natural light coming from the floor-to-ceiling windows, you’ll get the best bridal-getting-ready photographs possible.


When it comes to timelines, it pays to coordinate well with your wedding photographer and wedding planner. If you allow enough time for your bridal portraits, your photographer has more opportunities to be creative. And because you’re not rushing, your photographer will also have the time to use other beautiful spots around Hedsor House for your bridal portraits.

enjoy the outdoors
Hedsor House has many outdoor options you can take advantage of. So why not consider having your civil wedding ceremony or cocktail hour outside?
There’s the west lawn just outside the drawing room which can be used as an intimate wedding ceremony space. The drawing room’s external door provides a beautiful focal point that can be highlighted with a delicate floral arch. The 6 steps just outside the door also create a little stage for you and your wedding celebrant/minister so all your wedding guests can see you say I do.


There’s also the east garden with the pond area which is perfect for an intimate outdoor wedding reception. Make your grand entrance as a newly married couple through the double glass doors and down the steps into the east garden. And while you’re at it, why not treat your guests to a spring or summer al fresco wedding breakfast (if you’re lucky with the weather)?
