Wedding photography and film at Highbury Hall
Highbury Hall is one of those Victorian mansions that does half the work for you.
Highbury Hall is a grand Victorian mansion set in its own gardens in Birmingham, all ornate interiors and elegant rooms. Classic and characterful, a venue we'd love to capture.
The ornate interiors and grand rooms give every frame so much character, and the surrounding gardens offer a natural breathing space between all that beautiful architectural detail. We'd travel to Birmingham for this one any day.
Getting to Highbury Hall
The nearest train station is Birmingham Moor Street, roughly 3 miles from Highbury Hall. From there, a taxi takes around 10 minutes and costs very little. Birmingham International Airport is your best bet if you're flying in, sitting about 10 miles away with good road and rail links into the city. There is parking available on site, but spaces are limited so carpooling is a smart move. Street parking nearby is also an option if you arrive early. For the evening, pre-book a local firm like TOA Taxis or Uber in advance. Getting a cab on the night without a booking can be tricky, so plan ahead.
