Julie and Cody's
BLENHEIM PALACE WEDDING
A magical wedding day
Julie and Cody’s wedding was nothing short of extraordinary, blending intimate moments with breathtaking grandeur. From the eclectic charm of the bride prep location to the iconic splendour of Blenheim Palace, every part of their day was filled with personality, love, and a little touch of drama courtesy of the unpredictable British weather! Capturing this stunning celebration was an absolute joy, showcasing why I love being a luxury wedding photographer in Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds - Vicky Lewis Photography.
Bride Prep in Bladon
The day began in the picturesque village of Bladon, where Julie got ready at a charming and quirky Airbnb. With its eclectic decor and cosy atmosphere, it provided the perfect backdrop for a relaxed morning filled with laughter and anticipation. Surrounded by her closest friends and family, Julie’s joy was infectious as she prepared for the incredible day ahead. The vintage-inspired bridal suite was brimming with personal touches, making it a dream setting for capturing those precious pre-wedding moments.




The Ceremony & Reception at Blenheim Palace
From the intimate charm of Bladon, we moved to the awe-inspiring grounds of Blenheim Palace, a venue that truly needs no introduction. The grandeur of the palace, with its sweeping lawns and historic architecture, created an unforgettable setting for Julie and Cody’s ceremony.
The ceremony itself was stunning in the Marlborough room, with the light streaming through the windows, illuminating Julie as she walked down the aisle in her exquisite gown. The love and smiles were everything!!













A Bouquet Bee and a Runaway Veil
Of course, no wedding day is without its unexpected highlights! During the post-ceremony celebrations, Julie’s bouquet attracted a particularly friendly bee, who seemed just as taken with the flowers as everyone else. But the real heart-stopping moment came when Julie’s gorgeous veil took flight across the palace’s lake. The wind carried it high into the air, swirling gracefully alongside a flock of birds. For a few seconds, it seemed destined to land in the centre of the lake, leaving us all holding our breath. Then, as if by some miracle, the veil fluttered down onto dry land, unharmed. A collective sigh of relief was followed by laughter and cheers as Julie reclaimed her adventurous veil.

















A Perfect Ending
Julie and Cody’s wedding day was a true reflection of their love: beautiful, vibrant, and full of surprises. From the charming moments in Bladon to the grandeur of Blenheim Palace, their day was a perfect blend of elegance and fun. The ever-changing weather only added to the drama and beauty, creating memories that none of us will forget.
It was an absolute honour to capture their incredible day and witness the love they share. Julie and Cody, thank you for letting me be part of your story. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness and adventure!
