Photographing weddings at GrainsBarHotel

Hotel weddings give a photographer a lot to work with: dedicated bridal suites for preparations, multiple function spaces for ceremony and reception, and architectural features (lobbies, staircases, terraces) that single-room venues don’t offer. I plan around the light direction across the day — older hotels with chandeliers and warm interiors behave differently to modern hotels with large windows, and the timing for portraits shifts accordingly. I usually arrive during bridal prep and stay through past the first few evening dances.

What I notice when I shoot here

Grains Bar Hotel is located north of Oldham near the border of Lancashire and yorkshire.

Grains Bar Hotel has a recently renovated ceremony room. This space ceremony room has ceiling beams, rustic stone walls and a great floer display all framed by a huge, panoramic window wall.

As an Oldham Borough venuethey have OMBC registrars and we also work closely with local celebrants who truly bring something different from hand-tying to personalised vows, we are here to help curate the wedding ceremony .

It is literally is in the hills in the middle of nowhere , you really feel you are away from from Towns and Citys and with stunning backdrops to your wedding images .

Many rooms to stay the night and many walks .
