Bernie & Pia’s Once-in-a-Lifetime Wedding at Chettle Lodge, Dorset

As a wedding photographer, I’m lucky enough to capture love stories in some of the county’s most stunning venues. I was thrilled when two of my closest friends Bernie and Pia asked me to document their special day at Chettle Lodge in Dorset. It was truly extraordinary—a rare event at a venue that almost never hosts weddings!

A Unique Dorset Wedding Venue: Chettle Lodge

Nestled in the heart of Dorset, Chettle Lodge is a breathtaking historic estate. Unlike traditional venues, Chettle Lodge is not open to the public for weddings. Bernie and Pia’s celebration was a one-off event. Furthermore, the venue has confirmed it won’t be hosting weddings again. This made their day not only unique but also a genuine once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The Story Behind the Day

Bernie and Pia took on the challenge of organizing their wedding themselves. They worked closely with the team at Chettle Lodge to bring their vision to life. Their hands-on approach meant every detail was a true reflection of their personalities and love story. From the carefully curated décor to the personalized vows, their wedding was intimate, heartfelt, and utterly unforgettable.
