I have been a recommended wedding photographer to the Italian villa for around 10 years and have photographed more wedding at the Italian Villa than any other Dorset wedding photographer. I know the gardens like the back of my hand.

The Italian Villa at Compton Acres is a multi award-winning wedding venue in Dorset. Set within the beautiful gardens and grounds of Compton Acres, the Italian villa combines the perfect venue with a breath-taking location perfect for amazing wedding photography. A quick 2 min drive takes you to one of the most amazing beaches in Dorset (Sandbanks). This is where I have produced some of my most amazing wedding photography, as a Dorset wedding photographer, there really is no better place to be.

Italian Villa Wedding photography

Any way back to the Italian Villa gardens, as a back drop for wedding photography. This was one of the finest gardens built by Thomas William Simpson in 1924 and early pictures show evacuation work being carried out by hand with barrows of soil being pushed up on wooden planks to form the high banks around the garden. Symmetry and an elegant formality are the prime characteristics of the Italian Garden. It was like they were designed for Italian Villa wedding photography. Wedding guests are just amazed by their beauty. View more wedding venues
