Katrina Otter

Spear's Review

‘Classic’ and ‘timeless’ are the two words Katrina Otter uses when describing her style of weddings.

Known for her countryside weddings, she primarily works with couples who want to avoid the rigidity of London city weddings. Most of her clients opt for stately homes or even their own country homes as the location for their big day. 

‘I have that similarity with my couples,’ Cambridge-based Otter says. ‘I tend to attract couples who have an idyllic country garden look and feel in their minds. They’re looking for a certain aesthetic that I live and breathe daily.’

That’s not to say that clients never request weddings in the city. She tells Spear’s that one of her favourite weddings took place at London’s Natural History Museum. 

What her clients do mostly avoid is the typical hotel wedding. ‘Often they’re quite prescribed,’ she says. ‘A lot of my couples come to me because they want flexibility. They don’t want to be told what they can and can’t do.’
