De La Warr Pavilion Wedding Photography | Bexhill-on-Sea
An Unusual Wedding Venue — And That’s Exactly Why It’s Incredible
When couples first think about wedding venues in East Sussex, they often imagine country houses or rustic barns.
They don’t always think of an iconic modernist seafront building.
But that’s exactly what makes De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill-on-Sea so special.
Its sweeping curves, art deco lines and uninterrupted coastal views create something completely different from the traditional wedding venue. It’s bold. It’s architectural. It’s filled with natural light. And for couples wanting a contemporary, stylish wedding by the sea, there’s nowhere quite like it in Sussex.
A Photographer Who Knows the Pavilion Inside Out
I’m Matthew from Burst Photos, an East Sussex wedding photographer based near Bexhill. I’ve been photographing De La Warr Pavilion for over a decade — not just weddings, but art exhibition openings, cultural events and live performances including shows by Suzy Eddie Izzard.
That history matters.
I understand how the light moves through the building at different times of day. I know the clean architectural angles that frame couples beautifully. I know how the seafront behaves at golden hour, and how to use the Pavilion’s balconies and staircases creatively.
When you book me to photograph your wedding here, you’re booking someone who already knows every corner of this iconic venue.
