Dartmouth House Wedding
It was such a joy to photograph Georgie and Scott’s Dartmouth House wedding in London. After waiting two years to finally get married because of Covid, their day was full of everything they had hoped for: beautiful flowers, emotional moments, brilliant people and a seriously good dance floor.
And as London wedding venues go, Dartmouth House makes a pretty spectacular backdrop.
A Dartmouth House Wedding in Mayfair
Georgie and Scott held their ceremony outside in the beautiful courtyard at Dartmouth House. Their humanist ceremony was led by Nikki from Perfect Day Ceremonies, surrounded by incredible flowers created by Joanna Truby.
The courtyard is one of my favourite parts of Dartmouth House. Tucked away in the heart of Mayfair, it feels surprisingly peaceful and secluded. You genuinely wouldn’t believe you were right in the middle of central London.
After the ceremony, everyone stayed in the courtyard for drinks, cocktails and plenty of photographs before heading inside for dinner
Hollywood Glamour at Dartmouth House
Dartmouth House is a Grade II listed wedding venue in Mayfair, with elegant period rooms, a sweeping marble staircase and a beautiful grand hall. There are so many lovely spaces for wedding photography, while still allowing the day to unfold naturally rather than disappearing for hours to take photographs.
The famous marble staircase is particularly gorgeous for portraits and has a wonderful old-school Hollywood feel.
Which suited Georgie perfectly.
She looked incredible in her Mirror Mirror wedding dress, while Scott wore a classic tuxedo and tails. Together they brought a little bit of Hollywood glamour to their London wedding.
The flowers by Joanna Truby looked absolutely beautiful throughout the venue too, adding colour and softness to the historic interiors.
Dinner, Dancing and Sparklers
After cocktails in the courtyard, everyone sat down for dinner before the evening celebrations really got going.
Supa Tight Band were absolutely brilliant and easily one of the best wedding bands I’ve seen in ages. The dance floor was packed, which is always exactly what I want to see when I’m photographing a wedding.
Georgie and Scott started the evening with a romantic first dance before everyone joined them and the party properly began.
They finished the night with a sparkler exit, the perfect ending to a wedding that had been two years in the making.
Dartmouth House is quickly becoming one of my favourite London wedding venues. It has beautiful architecture, incredible spaces for photographs and that rare feeling of being somewhere peaceful and private despite being right in central London.
