The Crab and Lobster is one of my favourite wedding venues on the fringe of the Yorkshire Dales! It’s a boutique hotel in the truest sense – a quirky, kooky hotel, decorated with whimsy and adorned with all manor of random trinkets!
I mean, they’ve not only got an 7ft yeti who’s dressed in different outfits every time I visit, but there’s also a hidden beer tap that’s free for all those lucky enough to find it – what’s not to love!?
Hit play on the slideshow above to view highlights from a host of weddings I’ve photographed at Crab Manor and The Crab and Lobster.
It’s a venue of many parts, with an old manor house, a load of unusual rooms (and ski lodges!), as well as a renowned gastro-pub that specialises in seafood!
Preparations and civil Weddings at Crab Manor are hosted in the conservatory, again dripping in obscure and funky trinkets! And as a photographer, it’s always lovely to shoot in conservatories full of light!
I love to inject a bit more fun and interest into the sometimes dull formal shots at a wedding!
The lawn outside the ceremony at Crab Manor is a great spot for reception fun and games…
It’d be rude not to get the yeti involved in the pictures before guests head down to the Crab + Lobster to eat (under the watchful gaze of both a full diving suit and a skeleton in a pram, hanging from the roof)!
Below, you’ll find loads of galleries of real-life weddings I’ve shot at Crab Manor and The Crab + Lobster – and hopefully you’ll find loads of ideas and inspiration if you’re getting married at this wonderfully fun boutique venue.
