If you ever dreamed of marrying in a Cathedral let us help you make your dreams come true!
The Abbey was once nominated for Cathedral status. Its historical significance and magnificent architecture make it easy to see why.
We recognise that this marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter in your lives to be shared with family and friends for you all to cherish in the years ahead.
We offer a range of services beyond the marriage ceremony such as Bell ringing, Organist and musicians including choir. We will work with you to make your wedding service everything you hope it can be.
Even if you live outside the local area, you may still be eligible to marry at the Abbey though a family connection or a previous residence. If you don’t have a connection, you can establish one by joining the congregation for a period of six months, after which your banns of marriage can be called. If you would like to discuss how to book your wedding at the Abbey please complete our online enquiry form.
Wedding celebration services
In addition to celebration of the marriage ceremony, we support businesses to offer related wedding services such as photographers, florists, outfitters, luxury car hire, beauticians, reception venue, etc. If you, or someone you know, would like to be considered for inclusion in our register of service providers, please contact us via our on-line enquiry form.
