We have hosted many beautiful weddings, but one of the most memorable was a 17 hour affair! It included a Sikh religious ceremony, a civil ceremony, a British modern wedding breakfast, and finally a curry buffet and bhangra disco. The colours, sounds and tastes were all amazing, and we were all pleasantly exhausted by the end of the day!
It is really important to have a showround with the team before making your booking, and to ask as many questions as possible. Let the team know if there is something that you have always dreamed of, so they can suggest the most suitable venue for you.
One couple hand made models of scenes from popular movies, which they used as their table decorations, from Star Wars to My Neighbour Totoro. They were amazing and so creative.
Elegant, historic, romantic, beautiful, stunning

No celebrity weddings, but we have hosted lots of filming. Ralph Fiennes and Keira Knightley starred in The Duchess, with some of the filming taking place in the Tea Room.

We are proud that the Assembly Rooms are still used for their original purpose, hospitality and entertainment.
