Lee and Paul’s wedding at The Hard Days Night Hotel

Always exciting for me to cover weddings at The Hard Days Night Hotel. It is one of the nicest party and wedding venues in the city – lovely, super helpful staff and of course a brilliant interior, with loads of great photos of the Fab Four ! I’ve worked here as a photographer on a regular basis since it opened and it’s one of my favourites !

It was an absolute pleasure to be asked to be Lee and Paul’s wedding photographer for the day. They live in Dundee and it is a city that I have very fond memories of, as I studied there for four years at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art. So I had quite a few conversations with relatives and guests remembering places (mainly pubs), in between covering their special day.

Lee wore a beautiful vintage styled bespoke dress, while the gentlemen looked super smart in matching suits. And, as a special touch the hotel upgraded them to the bridal suite, complete with a Lennon mini grand piano !

City centre wedding in Liverpool

Another sunny day and another fabulous city centre wedding in Liverpool at St George’s Hall. I never tire of working at one of the city’s most prominent and iconic buildings.  It is set up for the biggest of weddings in the Concert Hall, through to more intimate family affairs in the rooms upstairs. Everywhere is steeped in history and it really is a special place for special occasions. And of course, there are tons of photo opportunities and brilliant locations, both inside and outside.

So I was delighted when Karim and Rasa asked me to be their wedding photographer there for their civil ceremony.

Civil ceremony

Briefly mentioned the civil ceremony at St Georges Hall last week. I was the photographer for Charlotte and Jonathan’s wedding and it was absolutely lovely and an honour to help them out.  Loads of friends and family travelled to be a part of their big day and fortunately the weather was absolutely splendid. The ceremony was in the rather plush Sefton Room and we made great use of the steps for group shots and then went into the gardens for some more private moments.

Hope Street Hotel wedding photography

Harriet and Sam marry at Hope Street Hotel

I had an instant rapport with Harriet and Sam when I met them for a free consultation – they seemed relaxed and organised about their wedding and had some strong opinions and ideas about the photography that they wanted. Their’s was very much a city wedding, taking in the sights of Liverpool and using one of the finest boutique hotel venues for their reception, the Hope Street Hotel.

Hard Days Night Hotel wedding photography

Hitched at the Hard Days Night Hotel!

Many years in the planning, the Hard Days Night Hotel is located in a converted 1884 building in the city the Beatles made famous. The venue has loads of original Beatles related photographs and prints and is amazing to wander around. Even some of the guest bedrooms are musically themed. It is a fantastic venue for a wedding and I was lucky enough to be the wedding photographer for Andrea and John on their special day.

The ceremony was held in Hard Days Night Hotel’s intimate chapel. So it was good, as all the guests were in one place for the whole day and no transport was required from venue to venue.

After the ceremony, the guests relaxed with a few drinks, while Andrea and John took me on a tour of the John Lennon-themed bridal suite. It is complete with a mini-grand piano – white of course. Also it gave us a chance to get some lovely relaxed portraits and give the happy couple a few moments to relax away from the crowds.

The reception went on into the night and I was there to capture the arrival of the evening guests and the bride and groom’s first dance. The venue transforms it’s ‘chapel’ into a great evening dancing venue and of course, during the room change around, it gives the guests an opportunity to check the couple of intimate bars in the hotel. It also meant I could have a short, but necessary break !

Happy couple photo

Congratulations and many thanks to Andrea and John. A truely wonderful day, with them and their kind families and friends.
