The Bear Hotel Wedding Photography

Arlette & John

Bride and groom on wedding day outdoors walking up stairs together at the Bear Hotel in Cowbridge

Arlette & John celebrated a beautiful late-summer wedding at The Bear Hotel in Cowbridge, a charming town in the Vale of Glamorgan, just west of Cardiff. We’d already captured some wonderful engagement shots at Hensol Forest, which helped them feel at ease in front of the camera on their wedding day.

Starting with preparations, I was able to photograph both bride and groom as they got ready, with everything running smoothly across The Bear Hotel. The ceremony, reception, and evening celebration were all held at this stunning venue, making transitions seamless. After the ceremony, we took couple shots at the nearby Cowbridge Physic Garden. A brief rain shower added a unique touch, but it quickly passed, allowing us to return to sunny weather.

Cowbridge offers endless photography opportunities along High Street and beyond, providing a picturesque backdrop for Arlette and John’s special day.
