Jana A., Google review, 2025

We hired Kaushik for our wedding. He was a fantastic photographer, very professional and great to work with. Kaushik was very flexible with timings, he was patient, and produced amazing photos! We received our photos really quickly and the quality of them are really nice!! His communication throughout was really good and understood what I wanted. My family were also very happy with Kaushik and the photos.

Register offices

Buckinghamshire's six council ceremony rooms and who fits in them

Buckinghamshire Council runs the county's registration and ceremonies service and holds its own ceremonies in six rooms. Beaconsfield Old Town has Midsomer Court, which holds about 60 people including the couple and the registrars, and the Disraeli Room for 25. Aylesbury has the John Hampden Room in County Hall and two rooms in the Judges Lodgings. High Wycombe has the Dashwood Room in the library.

The limits matter for photography. The council counts photographers, children and babies inside each room's number, so a full Midsomer Court ceremony needs a seat for Kaushik. The Dashwood Room, on the mezzanine floor of High Wycombe Library in the Eden Centre, takes only 10 people, which suits a very small ceremony with a larger meal elsewhere.

Aylesbury's rooms sit close together near Market Square. The John Hampden Room is on the ground floor of the Grade II listed County Hall and holds 50, while the Judges Lodgings, built in 1849 to 1850 by E.B. Lamb for the Assize Judges, has a Private Lounge for 45 and a Large Dining Room for 60 from November 2025. The statue of John Hampden in the square makes an easy first group photograph.

Milton Keynes is not part of Buckinghamshire Council's area. Its register office is at Civic, 1 Saxon Gate East, where the Flowers Suite holds enhanced ceremonies for up to 60 people or simple ceremonies for up to 12, so a Milton Keynes ceremony is booked with Milton Keynes City Council rather than the Bucks team.

Photographs after the ceremony

Beaconsfield Old Town: courtyard, arbour and the green across the road

Of the council rooms, Beaconsfield is the closest to the studio, about 10.5 miles away and just off junction 2 of the M40. Midsomer Court has a courtyard with an arbour for photographs, and the building was used for filming the police station in Midsomer Murders. The Disraeli Room has a restored high vaulted, carved wood-panelled ceiling with two chandeliers.

The council notes that both rooms sit in the Old Town conservation area, with a green across the road for photographs. The Old Town grew up on the Oxford Road to serve coach traffic and is laid out around the crossroads of its medieval market, with Georgian, neo-Georgian and Tudor revival frontages and the parish church of St Mary and All Saints, built around 1470, at its heart.

That makes a short register office wedding easy to photograph well. Kaushik covers the ceremony, then takes family groups in the courtyard, a few portraits of the two of you on the green and along the Old Town frontages, and moves on with you to the meal. Even a two-hour booking can give a full set of pictures in Beaconsfield.

Venues

The kinds of wedding venue Buckinghamshire has

The council's directory of approved venues runs from country houses to hotels, golf clubs, barns and museum buildings. In the south of the county there are Georgian and Tudor houses set in parkland, several of them licensed for outdoor ceremonies on a lawn or terrace. Around Gerrards Cross and the M40 there are hotels with licensed suites for 175 to 350 guests.

In the Chilterns and the Vale of Aylesbury the choice turns to restored tithe barns, manor houses and golf clubs with views over the hills, and around Marlow the venues look over the Thames. A number of Bucks venues are hired dry, which means you bring in caterers and other suppliers yourselves, so the timings for food, speeches and photographs need agreeing between everyone early.

Two Thames-side settings near Taplow, near Bourne End and about 12 miles from the studio, have their own planning pages: a guide to a country house by the river and a guide to a hotel above the Thames. Both set out the rooms, the rules and what a photographer needs to know there.

Seasons and light

Chiltern woods, Thames light and the Buckinghamshire wedding year

Spring in south Bucks brings flowering gardens and woods. The rhododendrons in Langley Park's Temple Gardens at Iver flower from April to June, and Captain's Wood on the edge of Chesham, an ancient beech wood cared for by the Chiltern Society, has bluebells and wood anemones in spring. Either is a good setting for a pre-wedding shoot in the weeks before the day.

Summer on the Thames is busy. Bourne End hosts its Bourne End Week regatta in June, and records show a regatta on the river at Marlow every year since 1855, so a riverside wedding on a regatta weekend needs extra time for traffic and parking. Higginson Park, the riverside park in the centre of Marlow, faces Marlow Bridge, the Grade I listed suspension bridge built between 1829 and 1832.

Winter weddings in Buckinghamshire are lovely indoors, in a house with high ceilings or a hall with good windows, but the light outside goes early in the afternoon. For a December ceremony, Kaushik suggests taking the couple portraits before the ceremony or straight after it, and keeping group photographs indoors once it is dark.

Moving between towns

Planning a Buckinghamshire wedding day that moves between towns

Bucks weddings move about. A morning at the family home in Chalfont St Peter, a ceremony in Beaconsfield and a reception near High Wycombe is a realistic day, because the M40 links them, with junction 1 by Denham, junction 2 at Beaconsfield and junctions 3 and 4 for High Wycombe. The order of the day should allow time for the drive and for parking at each stop.

A parish church ceremony is a different shape again. Chalfont St Giles has the Norman church of St Giles, with its lychgate and early 14th-century wall paintings, and Old Amersham has the Grade I listed St Mary's, dating from the 13th century. Chesham's Grade I St Mary's has a square tower topped by an octagonal spire, and St James' in Gerrards Cross has an octagonal dome ringed by four turrets.

Guests coming by train have good options. The Chiltern Main Line stops at Denham, Gerrards Cross, Beaconsfield and High Wycombe, the Metropolitan line runs to Amersham, Chesham and Chalfont & Latimer, and Aylesbury station has direct trains to London Marylebone and a 301-space car park. It is worth putting the nearest station on the invitation.

Near and far

What travel means for each part of Buckinghamshire

The south-east of the county is closest. Denham, Gerrards Cross, the Chalfonts, Amersham and Beaconsfield are all within about 10.5 miles of the studio, so an early start for preparations is straightforward. Bourne End, High Wycombe and Marlow, at about 13 to 16 miles, are a little further, and Princes Risborough sits about 20 miles away at the foot of the Chilterns.

Aylesbury is about 23 miles away, Milton Keynes about 34 and Buckingham about 37. Buckingham has had no station since 1964, so guests there use Milton Keynes or Bicester. Weddings in the north of the county are covered in full; travel from Northwood is quoted up front and set out in writing before you book.

Town by town planning is on the local pages: Gerrards Cross, Beaconsfield, Amersham, High Wycombe, Marlow, Aylesbury and Milton Keynes. For how a wedding day is photographed from start to finish, read the main wedding photography page.

Planning

Planning around Buckinghamshire

01

Count the photographer in

Buckinghamshire Council counts photographers, children and babies inside each ceremony room's limit, so include Kaushik in the number you give the ceremonies team.

02

The Dashwood Room is tiny

High Wycombe's council ceremony room seats 10 including the couple and registrars, so it suits a small ceremony followed by a bigger meal elsewhere.

03

Milton Keynes is separate

A Milton Keynes ceremony is booked with Milton Keynes City Council's register office at Civic, 1 Saxon Gate East, not with Buckinghamshire Council's ceremonies team.

04

Dry hire needs a timeline

Where a Bucks venue is hired dry, the caterer, the band and the photographer each work to your timings, so share one running order with every supplier.

05

Regatta weekends on the Thames

Bourne End Week falls in June and Marlow has held a regatta since 1855, so check the river calendar before fixing a riverside wedding date.

Weddings in Buckinghamshire: questions answered

Wedding photography with Kaushik Bathia is from £750. Each package is bespoke, built around the hours you need, the number of events and options such as a second photographer, a pre-wedding shoot or a hand-finished album. Travel from Northwood to your Buckinghamshire venue is set out in your written quote, so the full figure is clear before you book.

Yes. Midsomer Court and the Disraeli Room both allow a photographer, but Buckinghamshire Council counts photographers inside each room's limit. Midsomer Court holds about 60 people including the couple and the registrars, and the Disraeli Room holds 25, so leave a place for Kaushik when you confirm numbers.

Midsomer Court has its own courtyard with an arbour, and the council notes a green across the road for photographs. The rooms sit in the Old Town conservation area, so the Georgian and Tudor revival frontages along the old coaching road give plenty of backdrops within a few minutes' walk.

Yes. Aylesbury is about 23 miles from the studio, and the council ceremony rooms there are the John Hampden Room in County Hall, for 50, and the Private Lounge and Large Dining Room in the Judges Lodgings near Market Square. Travel from Northwood is quoted in writing before you book.

Yes. Milton Keynes is about 34 miles from the studio and Buckingham about 37, and both are covered for weddings. Milton Keynes has its own register office at Civic, 1 Saxon Gate East, while Buckingham couples use Buckinghamshire Council's rooms in Aylesbury, Beaconsfield or High Wycombe for a register office ceremony.

Your written quote sets out the travel from Northwood to the Buckinghamshire venue before anything is booked. For Denham, Gerrards Cross and the Chalfonts the drive is short; for the far north of the county it is longer, and the quote reflects that.

Yes. A pre-wedding or engagement shoot can be added to any package, and the county offers plenty of settings: the Thames by Marlow Bridge, the beech woods around Chesham, or Old Amersham's High Street and Market Hall. It also helps you get used to being photographed before the day.
