I recently had the absolute joy of filming Antonia and Matthew Hudson-Smith’s wedding, and what a day it was! Matthew, fresh off winning a silver medal at the Paris Olympics, and Antonia, originally from Texas, brought together their families and friends for a truly international celebration at the stunning Bourton Hall.
Bourton Hall: A Venue That Takes Your Breath Away
From the moment you arrive, Bourton Hall has this magical charm that just sweeps you off your feet. It’s nestled in the beautiful Warwickshire countryside, with gorgeous gardens and architecture that’s full of character and history. It was the perfect place for Antonia and Matthew’s big day, and capturing their love in such a stunning setting was an absolute dream.
For couples thinking of a wedding venue that feels grand yet intimate, Bourton Hall really is something special. Whether you’re looking for cinematic shots or those cozy, personal moments, it has the best of both worlds.
A Love Story from Texas to the UK
This wedding wasn’t just about two people getting married — it was about two worlds coming together. Antonia, with her Texan warmth and charm, brought a wonderful international touch to the day. There was a real sense of family and celebration, with everyone coming together from across the pond to share in their love.
Antonia looked absolutely breathtaking in her elegant dress, and the red roses that decorated the venue added a beautiful splash of romance. Matthew, looking sharp and proud, was every bit the Olympian, but you could see his softer side come through as soon as Antonia appeared at the end of the aisle. It was a day filled with so many tender moments, and I felt lucky to capture every one of them.
A Champion’s Love
Matthew may be known for his incredible athletic achievements, but on this day, it was all about love. Seeing the way he looked at Antonia, you could tell that winning her heart was his greatest achievement yet. From their heartfelt vows to their laughter during the reception, their love was so genuine and real. It was one of those weddings that just left you with a warm, fuzzy feeling inside.
The Perfect Celebration
Once the ceremony wrapped up, the celebration really began! Bourton Hall’s stunning grounds provided the perfect backdrop for photos, with guests mingling, laughing, and soaking in the atmosphere. And when the evening hit, the dance floor was buzzing with energy. It was a day filled with fun, laughter, and joy — exactly what you want a wedding to be.
