Wedding photography and film at The Vermont Hotel

The Vermont Hotel is a hotel weddings venue in Newcastle, set in the heart of the city with period architecture and views towards the iconic Tyne bridges.

A well-established hotel in the heart of Newcastle with period architecture and views towards the Tyne bridges — central, refined, and perfectly placed for a city celebration with the Quayside on the doorstep.

We think there is something genuinely special about a city-centre wedding done with this kind of refinement, and the Quayside on the doorstep gives couples and their guests a backdrop that few venues can match. The character of the building, with its classic lines and central position, is exactly the kind of setting we love to work with. This is a venue we would very much like to bring our cameras to.

Frequently asked questions about The Vermont Hotel

What is it like to get married at The Vermont Hotel?

The Vermont Hotel offers a refined city wedding experience in the heart of Newcastle, with period architecture that brings real character to every celebration. Its position close to the Quayside means couples and guests are right in the middle of one of the North East's most iconic riverside settings. It is the kind of venue that feels both grand and genuinely welcoming, making it a wonderful choice for couples who want a polished city celebration without sacrificing warmth.

How does the period architecture at The Vermont Hotel work for wedding photography and videography?

Period architecture is a real gift for wedding photography and videography, offering texture, depth and natural framing that modern spaces often lack. The Vermont Hotel's interiors and facade provide a variety of backdrops that work beautifully across different lighting conditions throughout the day. Paired with the nearby Tyne bridges and Quayside as an outdoor backdrop, there is a strong visual range available to a creative photography and videography team.

Can we use the Quayside and Tyne bridges as a backdrop for our wedding photos and film?

The Vermont Hotel's central Newcastle location puts the Quayside and the iconic Tyne bridges within very easy reach, making them a natural option for couples who want landmark city shots as part of their wedding coverage. We always love working with a mix of indoor and outdoor locations, and the combination of the hotel's period interiors with that riverside skyline creates a genuinely varied visual story. It is worth discussing with your photographer and videographer in advance so time can be planned into the day for any off-site portrait moments.

Is The Vermont Hotel a good choice for guests travelling from outside Newcastle?

Newcastle is well connected by rail and road, and The Vermont Hotel sits centrally within the city, making it straightforward for guests arriving from across the UK. Staying in a city centre hotel venue also removes the logistical challenge of late-night transport for guests, as accommodation, the ceremony and the reception can all be in one place. It is the kind of practical convenience that couples and their guests genuinely appreciate on the day.

Can we book Big Day Productions to photograph and film our wedding at The Vermont Hotel?

Absolutely, we would love to be part of a wedding at The Vermont Hotel. If you are planning your day there, please do get in touch with us to check availability and talk through what you have in mind. We cover weddings across the North East and Yorkshire, and a city venue like The Vermont Hotel, with its architecture and Quayside surroundings, is exactly the kind of setting we find really exciting to work in.

Do we need a separate videographer and photographer for a wedding at The Vermont Hotel, or can Big Day Productions cover both?

We offer both wedding photography and videography, either together or individually, so you can choose the coverage that suits your day and your plans. Booking both through us means your photo and film teams are fully coordinated, which makes the day feel much more relaxed for you as a couple. For a venue like The Vermont Hotel, where there is a lot of visual interest both inside and out, having both covered in one booking tends to give you the most complete record of your day.
