VENUES Beautiful Bath 11653 views

What could be more magical than a wedding ceremony around the famous Great Bath (right), with its steaming waters and Roman artefacts? Civil ceremonies take place most days at 8.30am as the Baths are then open to the public. Many couples then choose to follow their romantic ceremony with an elegant wedding breakfast in the Georgian Pump Room (left) with its magnificent chandeliers.

Or if you prefer to start a bit later, more intimate ceremonies held in the Kingston Room or Drawing Room in the historic Pump Rooms can take place at any time during the day with the opportunity to have photographs taken around the Roman Baths as well.

The stunning Georgian Assembly Rooms are also available for civil ceremonies. Couple can choose between The Octagon, Tea Room or Ball Room or spend their whole day moving seamlessly from one room to another for ceremony, drinks and reception.

The Guildhall is another lovely Georgian building in the centre of Bath with different sized rooms for your ceremony, the largest of which can hold up to 360 people.

The Assembly Rooms and Pump Rooms and Guildhall are all licensed for weddings and civil ceremonies can take place any day of the week between 8am and 5pm.
