Creating Edinburgh George Hotel wedding photos is a pure joy, thanks to its timeless elegance and stunning city-centre location.
This iconic venue, nestled in the heart of Edinburgh’s New Town, blends historic charm with contemporary luxury, offering endless opportunities for breathtaking photography.
The grandeur of the hotel’s architecture provides a stunning backdrop, from its grand facade to the sweeping staircases and opulent interiors.
The King’s Hall, with its high ceilings, intricate detailing, and crystal chandeliers, is perfect for capturing those romantic, fairy-tale moments.
Meanwhile, the rooftop terrace offers unparalleled views of Edinburgh’s skyline, adding a touch of magic to every frame—imagine couples framed against the sunset with the castle in the distance.
The hotel’s proximity to iconic Edinburgh landmarks, like Princes Street Gardens or Calton Hill, means you can effortlessly incorporate the city’s charm into your photos.
Whether intimate portraits in the soft natural light of the gardens or dramatic shots with Edinburgh Castle as a backdrop, every image feels unique and magical.
The George Hotel’s blend of luxury, history, and unbeatable scenery creates a setting that inspires creativity.
It’s a place where every corner tells a story, perfect for capturing the joy and romance of a couple’s special day.
Pre-wedding photos at Inverleith Park
I had previously met Clare and Craig on a couple of occasions.
The first meeting was at our initial consultation and again at Clare and Craig’s pre-wedding photoshoot at Inverleith Park, Edinburgh.
I discovered that Clare and Craig are a lovely couple from our time together. They are warm, friendly, and relaxed in front of a camera.
Bridal preparations
My photography coverage of the day began with the bridal party preparations in The George Hotel’s spacious Forthview Suite.
The champagne flowed, and the girls were excited, laughing and having fun.
Craig and the boys were downstairs meeting and greeting family and friends as they entered the beautiful King’s Hall.
This spacious room is one of my favourite places for a wedding ceremony, a very grand and ornate space that never fails to impress.
Wedding ceremony
The wedding ceremony was a joy to photograph. I loved hearing how Clare and Craig met and fell in love.
There was a lot of emotion on display, with smiles, laughter, and even a few tears.
Clare and Craig looked so happy as they were announced as the new Mr. and Mrs!
Newlywed photos at Queen Street Gardens
When you marry at the George Hotel, you can access Queen Street Gardens.
This spacious private park is just a few minutes walk away and is the perfect setting for taking photos of the newlyweds.
Clare and Craig looked so happy together, and I loved the photos we took at Queen Street Gardens.
Speeches in the King’s Hall
The celebration continued at the hotel as the newlyweds were piped into the King’s Hall to rapturous applause from family and friends.
Heartfelt speeches had everyone clapping, laughing and cheering; as with the ceremony, there were even a few tears.
An evening reception in the King’s Hall
My coverage of this wonderful celebration ended with cutting the delicious wedding cake and photographing the first few dances.
When I left, the dancefloor was packed with dancers all partying hard into the night, a perfect end to this day of shooting Edinburgh George Hotel wedding photos!
Congratulations to Clare and Craig. You were a pleasure to photograph!
These photos will be made into a stunning wedding album, a fitting tribute to such a great day.
