THE PHOTOGRAPHS
Rae and Ben at Thief Hall on 30 August 2025.
Wooden horseshoe benches looked over the fields for Rae and Ben's outdoor wedding in August 2025. Peter Hugo was the photographer. A white aisle ran between small, colourful flowers, and a sign asked guests to pick a seat for an unplugged ceremony. A black dog wearing a pale green neckerchief joined the day.
Rae wore a square-neck dress with long sleeves, while Ben wore a pale suit with a waistcoat. They signed the register beside the ceremony benches and later walked through confetti with the fields behind them. Around the brick barns, they spent time together beneath deep green foliage.
Inside the Hall, greenery and strings of lights followed the beams above round tables. Bright flowers brought reds, pinks and greens into the room. Guests gathered closely around Rae and Ben during speeches, then the tables gave way to dancing. Rae ended the evening high above the dance floor on another guest's shoulders, still wearing her white trainers beneath the dress.
