Weddings at the Waterfront Southport Hotel

CIARA AND TIM
by Northwest Wedding Videographer Richard Blake

Ciara and Tim got married in 2021 and had their wedding at the Waterfront Southport Hotel.

They decided that they wanted to find a wedding videographer in Southport to capture their special day on video. Having both been married before, and both previously only opting to have just a photographer, they told me that this time, they see the value in wedding videography and saw this opportunity to get their day captured on video forever. They loved the idea of being able to show their wedding video to their children for years to come.

They chose the Waterfront Southport Hotel as their venue as it is not only in their hometown of Southport but also they loved the venues beautiful panoramic views, positioned on the surroundings of Southport Promenade, with 180-degree views looking out towards the Irish Sea.

The beautiful art deco architecture and modern interior sets the scene for what will be a memorable stay in Southport. Besides luxurious rooms, the Waterfront Southport Hotel offers delicious food, and genuine hospitality, guaranteed to create a memorable stay for you and your wedding guests.

Ciara booked the Penthouse Suite for three nights so they could have plenty of time to soak up the sights and the atmosphere, spending the night before the wedding with her bridesmaids and then two nights with her husband.

The Wedding Photography was done by local Southport Photographer Michelle Peet. Ciara and Tim chose Michelle as they were already good friends, and had known her for a while and were very familiar with her work. It was a no-brainer that they wanted Michelle to document their wedding day. Check out more of Michelle’s work here.

Ciara and Tim said that they chose Richard Blake Weddings as their Wedding Videographer in Southport, as they saw that he has some great reviews and having watched some of his previous wedding videos they decided to book him to capture their day.

Ciara and Tim were delighted with the service and end result, commenting;

“Richard was so relaxing to be around and half the time I didn’t even see him. He captured so many beautiful moments which I didn’t see on the day myself and with our children being involved it made it even more special. I can’t believe the perfect story he made for us and the quality of it!”

Ciara and Tim chose the ‘Highlights Package’ when they booked with Richard Blake Weddings. This was perfect for them as it provided all day coverage from the morning preparations right through the evening dancing. They received a copy of their Highlights film and the ceremony and speeches in full.
