Longworth House weddings: a photographer’s guide

Newcastle

Why we love Longworth House

Longworth House is where heritage elegance meets modern style. This beautifully restored venue brings charm, sophistication, and versatility to Newcastle weddings. From its intimate courtyard to grand interior spaces, every corner is filled with natural character and warm light. As photographers, we adore how it photographs: timeless backdrops, rich textures, and an atmosphere that feels effortlessly refined.

About Longworth House

Longworth House is a grand heritage venue in central Newcastle, built for weddings with old-world glamour, from velvet and candlelight downstairs to a light-filled ballroom upstairs.

Ceremony and reception

Ceremonies are held in the Williams Bar, with polished floors, subdued lighting, candles, gilded mirrors and red velvet curtains, and the bar can open for guests straight after. Receptions move upstairs to the French provincial ballroom, with crystal chandeliers and flowing organza curtains. The functions director tailors each package, so ask about guest numbers.

Photo spots we look for

The ballroom’s windows give soft light for portraits inside, and the city’s heritage streets are right outside for an evening walk.

"We always felt like we were in such good hands."

We honestly couldn’t recommend Chris, Jacob, Casey and the entire Bedroom Studios team enough! … Casey was amazing throughout the entire lead-up to our wedding. … Then, on the day, Chris and Jacob were absolutely incredible. They were so professional, fun, relaxed and easy-going, and made us feel completely comfortable from start to finish…

We absolutely adore our preview pictures and cannot wait to see our full album already. They absolutely nailed the brief and matched the vibe we were going for incredibly well. Super talented and easy to deal with from the get-go. Casey is wonderful to deal with and makes everything super easy and seamless.
