Celebrating Love and Diversity in the Heart of Central London

There’s something timelessly elegant about a wedding at the Corinthia Hotel in central London, and Dan and Matt’s celebration was no exception. As a proud LGBTQ+ wedding photographer in London, I was honoured to capture this beautiful and intimate day filled with emotion, style, and personal touches that made it uniquely theirs.

A Grand Venue for a Grand Love Story

The Corinthia Hotel, a Victorian masterpiece overlooking the River Thames, was the perfect backdrop for this luxurious city wedding. Just steps away from iconic landmarks like Trafalgar Square and the London Eye, the venue effortlessly blends opulence with warmth.

From the moment I first visited the hotel for a pre-wedding venue check, I was captivated. The ambience, attention to detail, and exceptional service stood out, mainly thanks to Claire Bowpitt, the event manager. Her professionalism and personal touch made everything run smoothly, and she even helped me with family group photos.

An Intimate LGBTQ+ Civil Partnership Ceremony

The couple’s civil partnership ceremony was a candlelit dream. Dimmed lighting and delicate floral arrangements from Jo at Josy Posy created an inviting, romantic space. Teapots filled with colourful blooms and floating candles added whimsy and charm, reflecting Dan and Matt’s personalities.

Despite the rainy London weather, everyone stayed dry and cosy inside. The entire event, from the ceremony to the afternoon tea party, was held under one roof, giving the celebration a seamless and intimate flow.

Luxury and Pampering for THE Grooms

In a generous gesture, the hotel upgraded Dan and Matt to a lavish suite complete with a towering Christmas tree. They enjoyed a relaxing spa treatment the day before, soaking in the joy and serenity ahead of the big day. This level of care speaks volumes about the hotel’s commitment to creating magical, inclusive wedding experiences.

Capturing Love IS LOVE IN LONDON

I met with Dan and Matt again over a refreshing mint tea a few weeks later. We reminisced about their day, the excitement, the nerves, and the love in the room. They surprised me with flowers and chocolates, a heartwarming thank you I’ll always treasure. Photographing their stylish and emotional LGBTQ+ wedding in London was a true privilege.
