The Devonshire Arms & Bolton Abbey Wedding Photography

,The Devonshire Arms & Bolton Abbey Wedding Photography for Helen & Alistair. This beautiful couple got married on a very rainy day in September. The wedding ceremony was at the lovely Priory Church of St Mary & St Cuthbert at Bolton Abbey with the reception at The Devonshire Arms. 

The day began with the bride along with her daughter and bridesmaids getting ready at the Devonshire Arms Hotel 

They then travelled in the rain over the the Priory church for a beautiful wedding ceremony. After the ceremony it was reining really heavily and couple opted to head to the hotel rather than get any photos in the rain.

There’s something special about an English country wedding. Add in the glorious surroundings of the 30,000 acre Bolton Abbey Estate in the Yorkshire Dales, and you have a recipe for something truly magical. The hotel exudes quintessential country house charm and character with cosy open fires and luxurious four-poster beds, creating the perfect Yorkshire wedding venue.

It is juts a short ride through break taking countryside from the hotel. Bolton Priory, whose full title is The Priory Church of St Mary and St Cuthbert, Bolton Abbey is a Grade I listed parish church of the Church of England in Bolton Abbey. It takes its name from the ruins of the 12th-century Augustinian monastery now known as Bolton Priory. The priory, closed in the 1539 Dissolution of the Monasteries ordered by King Henry VIII.
