Save the date for a wedding showcase at Bath's Guildhall

Wedding couples are being encouraged to ‘save the date’ once again for a unique showcase event at Bath’s historic Guildhall.

Bath and North East Somerset Council’s Registrations team will open the doors of The Guildhall, High Street, Bath for a Wedding Showcase event on Sunday 22 October from 10am – 2pm.

People can look around the entire Guildhall Registration suite including the register office room and beautiful ceremony rooms.

Registrars will greet visitors with a welcome drink and be on hand to answer any questions couples might have about their special day.

This year they will be holding a special Q&A session where couples will be able to ask about the wedding and civil partnership process, from booking a registrar to how to give notice and how they can tailor their ceremony to make it more personal.

Even more local suppliers will be exhibiting on the day including photographers, florists and makeup artists as well as representatives from some of the 27 approved wedding ceremony venues in Bath and North East Somerset.

Another exciting addition to this year’s wedding showcase is guest speakers including a wedding make-up demo.

The registration rooms available at the Guildhall are The Alkmaar Room, The Abbey View Room, The Jane Austen Room, which are all available throughout the week, and The Georgian Room which is available on Fridays and Saturdays.

Councillor Tim Ball, cabinet member for Neighbourhood Services, said: “This is a wonderful opportunity for couples to visit The Guildhall which is a very special place to get married. The showcase event gives couples the chance to speak with our registrars gaining invaluable advice for their special day and also have the opportunity to speak to a fantastic range of local suppliers who are there to help create the perfect wedding day.”

The ceremony rooms at The Guildhall are suitable for parties of two to 118 guests, so there is something for almost everyone. Prices for ceremonies including registrars and use of a ceremony room start from £390.
