Wedding number two? That’s the one where Charles and Carrie almost kiss in the rain. Pure cinematic gold. The venue for that festivities was Crown Hotel in the village of Crownarsh Gifford, Oxfordshire. But here’s the secret: the actual wedding scenes were shot at a private estate nearby.
The film crew used a gorgeous country house called Grey’s Court in Henley-on-Thames. It’s a National Trust property now. You can wander the same gardens where Charles got soaked and Carrie looked effortlessly perfect. The rain? That was very real. British weather doesn’t need special effects.
The Funeral That Made Us All Ugly Cry
Oh, Gareth. We still miss you. The funeral service was filmed at St. James’s Church in the village of Little Tew, Oxfordshire. Yes, we’re staying in Oxfordshire. The film crew loved that county, and honestly, who can blame them?
This church is a 12th-century beauty with a lopsided tower. It’s so charming that it looks like it was built by a friendly giant with shaky hands. The scene where everyone laughs through tears? Pure magic. And the real churchyard is just as peaceful.
