Sam and Heather’s Bristol Harbour Hotel wedding was a joyful celebration right in the heart of the city.

Set on Corn Street, this iconic Bristol wedding venue combines grand historic architecture with modern styling, offering the perfect backdrop for a relaxed yet elegant day.

As a Bristol wedding photographer, I love shooting here because the venue offers so much variety. The high ceilings, sweeping staircases, and atmospheric vaults make every moment feel special, while just outside you’ve got the bustle of the city streets and the charm of the Old City.

After the ceremony, we wandered over to Castle Park for some portraits. The greenery provided a softer contrast to the vibrant urban surroundings, with the Harbourside and city architecture adding extra character to the gallery. This mix of nature and Bristol’s energy always makes for striking, story-led wedding photos.

The day was full of love, laughter, and some truly memorable touches. The Harbour Hotel’s team ensured everything ran seamlessly, creating a warm and stylish setting for friends and family to celebrate. From the buzz of Corn Street to the quiet moments shared in Castle Park, Sam and Heather’s wedding reflected everything that makes Bristol such a brilliant place to get married.
