Wedding photography and film at The Shard
The Shard is a city weddings venue in London, hosting couples high above the capital with panoramic views stretching across the entire city skyline.
The Shard offers weddings high above London with views stretching across the whole city. Sleek, modern and unforgettable, exactly the kind of London venue we'd love to shoot at.
We think it represents one of the most visually striking settings a couple could choose, all clean lines, glass and light on a genuinely iconic scale. The elevated perspective alone would make for extraordinary photography and film, with London spread out as a living backdrop in every direction. It is absolutely a venue we would love to bring our cameras to.
Getting to The Shard
London Bridge station is your best bet, just a 5 minute walk from The Shard. Trains run frequently from across London and beyond, so it is easily the most straightforward option for most guests. If you are flying in, Gatwick is your closest major airport, with direct trains into London Bridge taking around 30 minutes. Parking nearby is limited and expensive, so we would strongly recommend leaving the car at home. The congestion charge zone applies during the day too, so it is simply not worth the hassle. For the evening, black cabs are plentiful around London Bridge. Uber and Bolt both work well in this area too.
