Zoe & Darrell’s cosy winter wedding in the Cruck Barn

I had the pleasure of photographing Zoe & Darrell's wedding at The Craven Arms in Appletreewick which has the most amazing cruck barn!

Being the 1st of December, the barn was decorated with a touch of festive cheer. There were mince pies, mulled wine & a tree! The Craven Arms has a really cosy feel which perfectly suited Zoe & Darrell's winter wedding. ️

A few words from Zoe & Darrell about their wedding at The Craven Arms, Appletreewick:

”How did you two meet?: We met outside Milo's in Leeds while we were both out with different friends. My friend was having a bit of an argument with a couple of men and he stepped in to diffuse the situation!

Describe the proposal!: Darrell proposed in Iceland on my birthday. He'd wanted to propose whilst we were seeing the Northern Lights but the trip kept getting cancelled - we say them the next evening though ️ We'd had some food and wine and were just in our room. Darrell out on 'our song' and proposed with my dream ring - an antique diamond and opal ring.

What is special about your venue?: The Craven Arms is completely to our taste. It's rustic, full of random quirky objects and in the middle of nowhere. We visited and fell in love - it just felt right.

Any details of note about your big day?: Darrell's Mum passed away very recently and there will be photos of her around - Darrell will also be wearing a pin with her picture (check out his tie pin too - opal!). The mulled wine & cider drinks reception, the giant fireplace in the barn and the Christmas tree are also key features.
