The UK is brimming with creativity, inspiration, arts and innovation but Bristol has been named the number one must-see for creative types. Aura Print (https://aura-print.com/uk) ranked the most creative and artistic UK cities taking into the account the number of art galleries, museums, theatres, comedy clubs, street art, as well as the top universities for art and design courses and this was the conclusion they reached. So, if you’re looking for a city that’s thriving with culture, arts and creativity, look no further than our beloved Bristol.

Bristol is one of the leading UK cities for street art, boasting more than 153k Instagram posts capturing the colourful streets of the city. With sites and events such as The Mild Mild West, an early Banksy mural, to Upfest, Europe’s largest street art and graffiti festival, you’ll never be short of a perfect culture moment to shower you with inspiration, or of a memorable wedding-day photo backdrop. The vibrant streets of Bristol are not the only spots for creatives to take in the local artistry , there’s also 27 art galleries, 15 theatres and 8 comedy clubs to immerse yourself in.

With all of the showstopping real weddings and shoots we get to feature in Your Bristol & Somerset Wedding, we reckon the creative flair of the city has rubbed of on its couples and talented wedding suppliers!

Not because of the flowers. Not because of the guest list. But because of how you navigate stress, expectations, decision-making, and emotional needs together. A wedding is an event. A marriage is an energetic ecosystem.
