Great Wedding Venues

I can always remember one of my daughters said that she chose her wedding venue because she wanted some great wedding pictures. That seemed an odd statement at the time because of course venues don't sell photography - at least this was not what she meant. The choice of venue was important because of the pictures that it would allow.

We are privileged to work in some great venues, both across the East Midlands and further afield. A good venue will provide sufficient space for your guests and inside rooms should be spacious and ideally with high ceilings. Natural light is important and look out for venues that are designed in such a way to allow lots of natural light to come inside.

Thinking of locations for any formal pictures is also important, both inside - if the weather is poor - and outside. It is also helpful if there are some more discrete areas for a few pictures of the bride and groom, away from the crowds. It is unlikely that a venue will be perfect in every respect - but most of all think about how the venue will work with your wedding day and whether it has the look and feel you are wanting.

I have just updated our We Love... pages with details of a number of wedding venues that we love. I can't express just how important the venue is to your photography. Here are a few pictures and you can see more at our We Love... pages
