Being The Bond wedding photographer for Tracey & Dan found me close to home in Birmingham city centre. The Bond is an amazing venue situated in Digbeth, and is new for me this year but certainly one which offers great & certainly different settings for wedding photography!
The morning started though with Tracey & the girls getting ready at The Radison Blu, handily situated in Birmingham city centre. The suite was a hive of activity with everybody busy preparing for the day ahead, although lovely as it was the view from the window didn’t suit anybody with vertigo!
With Tracey ready in plenty of time we got a few shots using the view as a great backdrop before I headed off to meet up with Dan & the guests at The Bond. This warehouse conversion with its canal side location in Digbeth is a great venue for a city centre wedding & we were all warmly welcomed which was good because even though it was mid may there was a testing, chilly breeze outside. The small ceremony room perfectly suited Tracey & Dan’s intimate wedding with everybody happily awaiting Tracey’s arrival, which, just to keep Dan on his toes, was a little late 😉
A lovely, cheerful ceremony followed, conducted in great spirit by the Birmingham Registrars & after a few signing photos we headed off for a champagne reception. Family photos followed in the sadly, rather chilly courtyard before we grabbed a few photos around the Bond, taking in some of its amazing, industrial past with lots of lovely, old crumbling brickwork. Time was moving on though & we headed off into the heart of the city to The Bank in Brindley Place for the rest of the days proceedings. There was time to get a few photos using the lovely central square for photos before it was time to head in for speeches & the wedding breakfast.
As I wasn’t with Tracey & Dan into the evening there was one last romantic, silhouette to capture before leaving them to their guests & wedding breakfast.
