Rustic Barn Wedding at Country Ways, Devon | Sophie & Jonny


What a beautiful day spent tucked away in the rolling Devon countryside at Country Ways in Umberleigh. I had the pleasure of photographing Sophie and Jonny's wedding, and it was everything a relaxed countryside celebration should be.


Country Ways is the perfect setting for couples dreaming of a rustic barn wedding. Surrounded by sweeping countryside views, its beautifully converted barns provide a warm and characterful backdrop, while its rather unusual resident ring bearer, a Highland cow, adds a touch of charm that guests won't forget.

Sophie and Jonny's day was filled with laughter, thoughtful personal touches and plenty of time to soak up the beautiful surroundings with their closest family and friends.


Review


Absolutely incredible!

We can’t thank Codie at Lilac Skies Photography enough for capturing our wedding so beautifully. From start to finish, she was amazing — so kind, calm, and lovely to have around. She blended in perfectly throughout the day; half the time, we didn’t even notice she was there, yet she somehow managed to capture every single moment we could have hoped for (and so many we didn’t even realise were happening!).


Her photos are absolutely breathtaking — they took our breath away. She gave us a preview within just a few days, and every image was pure magic. The quality, attention to detail, and emotion she captured were beyond anything we could have dreamed of.


Her pricing is incredibly fair and competitive, especially given the exceptional standard of her work. Codie truly went above and beyond, and we’ll treasure these photos forever. We couldn’t recommend her more highly — she’s an absolute star!


If you're planning your own wedding at Country Ways or looking for a relaxed documentary wedding photographer in Devon, I'd love to hear about your plans. Whether you're getting married in a rustic barn, by the coast or surrounded by woodland, I'd be delighted to help tell your story.
