Midland Hotel, Morecambe Wedding Photography
I’d always wanted to photograph a wedding at The Midland Hotel in Morecambe. Its Art Deco design and beautiful architecture along with it’s imposing position overlooking Morecambe Bay make it a wonderful venue. So I was delighted when Anna & Elgan asked me to photograph their amazing wedding there.
Anna’s bridal party had decamped at her parents’ house for the morning and I found a hive of activity when I arrived. I love this part of the day… there are so many different angles to explore and the organised chaos gives me a chance to grab some great candid moments of all the excitement building.
Onto St Marie’s Church in Haslingden where Elgan was looking relaxed welcoming guests as they arrived for the ceremony. Anna arrived looking beautiful in her dress and it was a lovely, intimate ceremony followed by a few informal photos of friends and family outside.
It was then off to The Midland Hotel where drinks were served below the impressive spiral staircase. Although there was a hefty sea breeze coming off the bay, Elgan & Anna were both up for a quick stroll along the beach where we got some lovely intimate portraits of the two of them together while they enjoyed a well earned glass of Champagne.
Food, drink and some very emotional speeches followed in the Eric Gill Suite. The views out to sea make this a beautiful location for a wedding breakfast and I was loving the light that streamed through the massive windows.
Once their amazing cake was cut it was time to hit the dance floor to round off the perfect day.
Here are a few highlights…
Thank you so much again for all your hard work on the day, it was lovely having you with us and made it all so easy. – Anna & Elgan
