The Signet Library, in brief.
The Signet Library sits on Parliament Square beside St Giles' Cathedral, a Georgian interior of columns, book galleries, and a painted cupola. It is one of the few Old Town venues that is both grand and genuinely central.
Selected wedding photography from our CameraBoss studio illustrates our approach. These images are not presented as weddings at The Signet Library. Please confirm current access, facilities and wedding arrangements directly with the venue.

- Parliament Square and the Old Town closes are immediately outside, so portraits need no travel.
