Wedding photography and film at Sandy Park

Sandy Park is a country weddings venue in the South West of England, set within the home stadium of the Exeter Chiefs and built to handle celebrations on a genuinely large scale.

Exeter Chiefs' home stadium providing large-scale event facilities with a sporting atmosphere — an accessible and well-equipped choice for larger Exeter and Devon celebrations that want scale, community energy, and straightforward accessibility.

We are drawn to the energy this kind of setting brings, where the architecture is bold, the spaces are generous, and the whole venue carries a sense of occasion that few locations can match. For couples who want scale, accessibility, and a venue with real character and community spirit, we think Sandy Park is a genuinely exciting choice, and one we would love to bring our cameras to.
