Becky & Ben’s Awesome Tipi Festival Wedding in Henley-on-Thames

BECKY + BEN

Becky and Ben are all about adventure, great company, and making memories together. They love nothing more than spending time with friends, whether it’s exploring new places, indulging in delicious food, or soaking up the atmosphere at a summer music festival (no wonder they went for a Tipi festival wedding!) When winter rolls around, you’ll find them hitting the slopes, embracing the thrill of a ski trip.

Their story began in the most fitting way—through a shared love of good times and great company. Introduced by Becky’s sister, Victoria, during a day out at the cricket, their connection was instant. From that moment, their journey together has been filled with laughter, exploration, and a love for experiencing life to the fullest.

More about Becky & Ben and some of the choices they made for their wedding

Becky and Ben’s wedding was an absolute belter—full of love, laughter, and a whole lot of partying (always goes hand-in-hand with a Tipi festival wedding!). They kicked things off in style at All Saints Church in Marlow, their hometown, where they made it official in front of family and friends. Then, in true VIP fashion, they ditched the usual wedding car and hopped onto a boat for a little self drive boat trip up and down the river a few times! With a drink in hand and plenty of cheering from Marlow bridge, it was the perfect moment to soak in the “we just got married!” feeling before diving headfirst into the celebrations.

Their reception? Oh, just a little festival-style extravaganza in the middle of the stunning Culden Faw Estate. Picture rolling green hills stretching as far as the eye can see, overlooking Henley, with a tipi village ready to host the ultimate summer garden party. Think awesome live band vibes, fairy lights twinkling as the sun set, and guests throwing some serious shapes on the dance floor. If Glastonbury had a VIP wedding section, it would’ve looked a lot like this.

And then there was the food—because let’s be honest, what’s a festival without incredible eats? Enter SOJO Kitchen, Becky’s sister’s catering company, which absolutely smashed it out of the park. Known for its ridiculously good food and stunning presentation, SOJO Kitchen served up a feast that had guests going back for seconds (and thirds). Every dish looked like it belonged on the cover of a food magazine, and the flavors? Next level. It was like Michelin-star dining, but with added love and a side of family pride.

To top it all off, Jo Caldwell worked her magic with the flowers, turning the tipis into a wild, bohemian dream with lush, colourful arrangements that perfectly matched the laid-back festival vibe. And when it came to photography, Becky and Ben knew exactly what they wanted—none of that stiff, awkward posing. Just real, unfiltered moments of pure joy. They picked me because they knew I’d capture every hilarious, heartfelt, and slightly tipsy moment as it happened—dodgy dance moves and all.
