Yorkshire Wedding Photographer Tom Roberts, of Champagne Shutter Photography, at Saltmarshe Hall


Wedding planning should be an adventure to be enjoyed and if you choose Saltmarshe Hall, Howden, near Goole, it certainly feels this way as you thread the car down roads that weave through reeds, bulrushes and embankments alongside the Ouse.


This Yorkshire country house wedding venue oozes grandeur and elegance even as you drive up. Immediately, this photographer’s eye loves the sandy golden colour of the ashlar dressed stonework.

It really feels like you’ve hit upon a hidden away gem – an end of route destination you wouldn’t simply stumble upon, with a luxury that is way more than a ‘bolt-hole.’ An exclusivity like you’ve got to have been in on the secret! There’s a feeling of intimacy despite its scale.


Nor does this make for an issue with guests either – there are 14 luxurious suites and rooms in the main building, with a further self-contained converted stables on site, comprising 3 double bedrooms and kitchen, as well as a 2-bedroom cottage too. No end of choice to have everyone on site! Saltmarshe Hall really will be your own!


Choose the Yorkshire Suite as your bridal suite and the glamour continues…


We can have all sort of fun with the beautiful soft light falling on this roll top bathtub, from fun poses, if that’s your vibe, to a few glamour and fashion styled shots too.

Flattering prep portraits and fun roll top bath...

...or glamour/fashion editorial shots - think Vogue in black & white! You reclined, laughing in your dress, champagne flute casually suspended by a relaxed wrist, as you gaze out over your estate... 🥂

The large Georgian windows cast soft flattering light for elegant prep portraits.

The beautiful staircase and large windows at Saltmarshe...

...make for an elegant patch of soft light here (whatever the weather) that will always be perfect for a photograph of you in your dress, whether from above, to show off your train, or below, like here, perhaps with your dad...or even from a perspective further down the stairs, like the middle image.

The Saltmarshe Suite – wonderful colours and warm woods – opulent design throughout

The Dining Room - as a hotel, this is the sort of venue for guest dining only, not walk-ins

There is an abundance of choice for ceremony and celebration options too.

Besides the indoor ceremony space, you have the bar and library.


Nothing epitomises the beauty and flexibility of Saltmarshe Hall more than the library.  This elegant blue toned space will be superb for canapes, cocktails, coffee, but also opens out onto one of the two terraces for outdoor partying, before winding either back into the bar, or on to the covered area, which could be your choice for outdoor wedding breakfast dining.

This window....

...with the brass runner on the floor here, means the sill can open up to allow flow between indoor drinks, the patio, the bar, and the terrace and tree lined avenue beyond.

Saltmarshe’s current building is a Grade II listed Georgian Hall, bought and renovated 12 years ago by the current owners, only the third family to own it across 900 years of history, having remained under the same family’s ownership from 1067 to the 1970s.
