Your wedding day will be one of the most memorable days of your life, and you’ll want to get it right. However, there’s little point in reading lots of long lists of ‘top wedding venues’, as what’s important to one bride and groom will not be important to another.
The choice of wedding venue is very much an individual one, with no one wedding being the same as the next. Whilst many people opt for the traditional ‘white wedding’, many others look for something more personal and quirky, perhaps. Rest assured, however, that whatever wedding venue you are looking for, we are blessed here in the UK with an array of stunning venues that provide something for everyone.
So, to help you along the way, we’ve come up with some recommendations based on the different types of wedding venues that you might be looking for!
Stately Home Weddings
Stunning wedding venues such as stately homes are always in demand. They provide wonderful dining areas as well as fantastic photo backdrops to capture those all-important shots of the special day!
Check these out: Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire & Thornton Manor in Cheshire.
Barn Weddings
Barns are very much on-trend at the moment for weddings. These are often smaller, more intimate occasions and typically offer brides and grooms the opportunity to dress the venue in their own personal style in terms of lighting and decor as well as event furniture and equipment hire.
Check these out: Doxford Barns in Northumberland & The Cherry Barn in East Sussex.
City Weddings
Not all weddings take place in stately homes or country houses, and city weddings are becoming increasingly popular. They are usually luxury affairs with modern, cutting edge design, especially when it comes to luxury event furniture hire London.
Check these out: Chiswick House & Gardens in West London & Manchester Hall.
Coastal Weddings
The British coastline is a romantic place for many of us, and so it makes sense that some of us look towards these areas for wedding venues.
Check these out: East Quay Venue in Kent & The Grand Hotel in East Sussex.
Castle Weddings
What better place to hold a wedding than in an historic castle, complete with high ceilings, coats of armour and a few ghosts thrown in!
Check these out: Rowton Castle in Shropshire & Farnham Castle in Surrey.
Historic Venue Weddings
The UK is awash with historic wedding venues, especially in the London area (for which you might need event furniture hire London) and these often make for stunning wedding venues.

Keep your fingers crossed and pray for good weather if you’re hoping to enjoy an outdoor wedding!
Check these out: Busbridge Lakes in Surrey & Hever Castle in Kent.
Quirky Weddings
Who is to say that your wedding venue has to follow the norm. Dare to be different and look for quirky wedding venues that might have even occurred to others – it will make for a truly memorable wedding!

Pop Up Weddings
These temporary wedding venues are ‘popping up’ all over the UK, providing brides and grooms with a great way to tie the knot. You’ll probably need your own wedding furniture hire and much more!

Country House Weddings
The most classic of traditional white wedding venues is the country house, with terraces and lawns outside for guests to sip their Pimms & lemonade before entering inside into the wedding breakfast room.
