Bath offers a unique blend of history, elegance, and flexibility, making it the perfect backdrop for your wedding day. With breathtaking surroundings and award-winning venues, couples can tailor their celebrations to match any vision, whether it’s an intimate gathering or a grand affair.
Imagine exchanging your vows against the torch-lit, historic beauty of the Roman Baths. This iconic landmark, set around Britain’s only naturally hot spring, creates an extraordinary atmosphere for couples looking for a wedding that will truly stand out. Guests can marvel at the magical setting as you say “I do” on the ancient Roman paving alongside the waters, before celebrating in the atmospheric Pump Room or the enclosed Terrace. Few venues offer such a combination of romance, grandeur, and history.
For those dreaming of a natural setting, Bath’s Heritage Parks offer stunning options that embrace the beauty of the outdoors. The Temple of Minerva, nestled within the Botanical Gardens, is ideal for any season, with its charming indoor space warmed by underfloor heating and its surrounding lawns providing ample room for marquees, drinks receptions, and even festival-style celebrations. Whether you picture a relaxed summer wedding with wood-fired pizza and lawn games or a winter ceremony adorned with candles and mulled wine, this space allows you to create a wedding as unique as your love story.
In the heart of Bath, Parade Gardens delivers unrivalled riverside charm, where manicured lawns and vibrant floral displays meet the timeless beauty of the Pulteney Bridge. Couples can host their ceremony in the elegant Edwardian Bandstand or under the colonnades, followed by drinks receptions surrounded by one of Bath’s most iconic settings. With its vintage charm and picture-perfect views, it’s a location where memories—and photographs—will be truly unforgettable.
If refined Georgian interiors are more your style, the Guildhall offers a stunning combination of history and flexibility. Known for its fine rooms and elegant staircases, this venue provides the grandeur befitting a timeless celebration. Rarely do venues of this calibre allow couples the freedom to choose their own caterers and suppliers, ensuring every detail reflects their vision. Located near the river and manicured gardens, it offers exceptional opportunities for wedding photographs, making it a picture-perfect choice from day to evening.
