I have worked as a Kent wedding photographer with the Mercure Tunbridge Wells Hotel chain a number of times now and am always impressed by how their wedding packages are such good value for money, not to mention the fantastic service they give to each of their clients..

The Royal Tunbridge Wells location, in Pembury, is a fantastic choice if your planning to say “I Do”. Nominated for the Kent Wedding Awards a number of times, the Mercure Tunbridge Wells Hotel is truly a hidden gem. With its 18th century Georgian oast house its a highly sought after venue and we love how it has become such a modern wedding venue. Nestled in the middle of the Kent countryside, with close connections to both London and Surrey, if you are looking for an affordable wedding venue in Kent, I would suggest taking a look around.

Proud to be listed as their recommended wedding photographer, our team here at Luke Granger Photography often travel to wedding venues across the UK; having such a fantastic affordable wedding venue on our doorstep is always a bonus for us as a Kent Wedding Photographer.


The arched window in the Mercure Tunbridge Wells Hotel ceremony room makes for a stunning backdrop as couples sign the register, soaking up the atmosphere, surrounded by their loved ones. The team at Mercure Tunbridge Wells Hotel work to create a fantastic setting for weddings of all sizes. With the ability to host up to 150 guests, its certainly a fantastic choice of wedding venue in Kent.

If you are blessed with good weather after the wedding ceremony, the courtyard at the Mercure Tunbridge Wells Hotel is a great place to mingle with your wedding guests.


As a Kent wedding photographer, we love using this courtyard to take a range of photographs as you continue the celebrations of the day. Capturing the all important confetti shot, posing with your wedding party and in general enjoying life as newlyweds.

If you are visiting the Mercure Tunbridge Wells Hotel, be sure to escape for some time together in the secret garden. As a wedding photographer in Kent, the picturesque lily pond is a beautiful place to take some fantastic wedding photos of the happy couple. With an English country garden feel, couples can really relax, feeling as though they are in the heart of the countryside.
