A bit of history behind the Hotel: “The Duke” was Plymouth’s first luxury hotel. Established in 1863, it is one of the city’s oldest buildings and one of the few survivors of the Blitz bombings. Also, the humble abode to twenty stewardesses when they were rescued from the Titanic, for their first nights ashore. What a great story behind a wedding venue, to tell the grandkids!
This event day is exclusively for engaged couples. The Duke’s ballroom was grandly set up and dressed up entirely in wedding decor. A host of suppliers from a magician to a florist. Hopefully bringing the inspiration needed for the couples and their big day.

When it comes to wedding planning, there are a million and one things to organise – picking the venue is top of the list. Our video promotes how the staff and guests can celebrate marriage in one of Plymouth’s most stunning historic spaces.
“The Duke of Cornwall is a spectacular place to get married and of course, the staircase was made for the bride to walk down and see her dress flowing behind her.” – Leila Nottage.
We used our reliable GoPro Hero4 to capture time-lapse footage throughout the day. It shows the magnificent transformation from an empty ballroom to a dressed-up dream wedding venue. With their own personalisation, it shows the fine potential of the venue. And lets them imagine their dream wedding day.
