What should we consider when planning our wedding film and photography at a country house venue like this?

Country house venues such as Kesgrave Hall reward a little planning around how you use the different spaces across the day, indoors and outdoors alike. We always recommend thinking about which parts of the grounds matter most to you as a couple, whether that is the garden for portraits, the arrival moment, or the character of the interiors, so we can build a coverage plan around those priorities. It is also worth considering how natural light moves through the grounds at different points in the day, something we are always happy to talk through during a planning call.
