Red Lion Salisbury wedding photographer.
Old coaching inn, real moments.
Natural, documentary wedding photography and film at The Red Lion Hotel on Milford Street, a few minutes' walk from Salisbury Cathedral.
A medieval coaching inn
in the middle of Salisbury.
The Red Lion has been looking after guests on Milford Street since the 13th century. The courtyard, smothered in its famous creeper, is the bit everyone remembers, and the cathedral is just a short stroll away.
Ceremony, wedding breakfast and party all happen under one roof, with rooms upstairs for everyone. It's quirky, full of character and right in the middle of the city.
What it's like to shoot here.
The courtyard
Green, leafy and full of character. Perfect for confetti, groups and a few quiet minutes together.
The cathedral
A five-minute walk to the Cathedral Close for portraits with one of the best backdrops in the country.
The feel
Historic and a bit quirky. Low ceilings and old rooms mean I work fast and light, and stay out of the way.
Douglas's wedding at The Red Lion.
