Wedding Venues in Bristol

A massive thank you to Ed, family and all the team at Starlings for making our wedding day absolutely perfect! Ed really went above and beyond to make sure our special day was everything we hoped it could be (and more!). From the get go, Ed was incredibly accommodating and flexible - working with us to understand our vision and customise the venue, whilst designing bespoke food and cocktail menus for nearly a hundred people. The whole team were absolutely phenomenal and the venue is so versatile - seamlessly transitioning from summer cocktail reception, to restaurant, to party vibes. The food and drinks were delicious, the service exemplary and all our guests left happy and singing Starlings praises! We cannot thank you enough and look forward to seeing you all (including Jeffrey) soon! Jess & Sol

You get good value for your money at the grange. The team are very helpful and make your vision a reality!. The food is amazing, staff are super friendly and the rooms are very clean.

We had such and amazing wedding day at Barley Wood! The venue is gorgeous and thankfully the weather held out for us. Zach, Connor and all the team were so helpful and friendly, leading up to, and on the day. A lovely relaxed atmosphere. We are hoping to re-visit for other celebrations.

We chose this venue because we wanted to serve traditional food that we enjoy at our wedding, and this was one of few places where we could have external caterers. The venue also included all the cutlery, crockery and tablecloths we needed, which other places didn’t provide. The hall is very versatile, with the ability to close bits off or open them up depending on the number of guests you have. It’s also very fresh and neutral decor-wise (apart from the coloured chairs), which makes it easy to decorate it to your taste. There is a garden to the rear, where we had some outdoor games for guests, as well as plenty of greenery to the front, where we took our wedding photos. The staff I communicated with were very friendly, and on hand to help the evening before the wedding, when the key to the room with the tablecloths didn’t work. I highly recommend this venue - it’s rare to find a place with capacity for 200 guests at this price point.

The dream venue! We got married by a Registrar on the terrace overlooking the Suspension Bridge and it was perfect and utterly dreamy. The venue coordinator was extremely helpful and everything went very smoothly. Surely this is the best venue is Bristol?! We felt like we were flying in the sky and we were surrounded by nature, while also being in the middle of Bristol. Guests also get free access to the Giants Cave and Camera Obsecura, which is a fun extra. We had our reception at Avon Gorge Hotel as we had too many guests to fit in the Observatory so all our guests walked in a procession through the Down and over the road (10 min walk) with a marching Brass Band...perfecto!

Great location that worked for us with lots of families and small children. They worked brilliantly with our suppliers as well and it was really stress free.

Inspite of constant restrictions and uncertainty regarding if and how our wedding would take place, Ross and his amazing events team Inc catering and Planetarium staff went well beyond to ensure our day was perfect. Attentive, responsive, patient and creative team having to manage change right upto the week before the wedding. Always positive and solution focused. Highly recommend.

We had our wedding at The Barn on the 24th Aug and I have to say, Lucy and the team at Old Down were just amazing. She made everything really easy and was very accommodating. Nothing we asked was too much trouble. On the day, everything went exactly as we wanted it to and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. All of our guests said how great the venue, gardens, food and staff were. We really couldn’t have asked for a better day! Thank you to Lucy, Louise and all the staff at Old Down for making our special day super amazing!

Dear Clio, Thank you very much for all your support and organisational skills in the run-up to our wedding party. It all went very smoothly and everyone enjoyed themselves. Thank you! Best wishes, Fran

We found Folly Farm online after many searches and once we arrived for our showround we loved everything the venue had to offer. Having the venue from the Friday evening to the Sunday morning worked perfectly and gave us the opportunity to see all of our guests and to extend our celebrations over the 2 days. Luckily the rain held off and we managed to have our ceremony outside which was perfect with Chew Valley lake in the background. A stunning outlook. All the team at folly farm were always friendly and helpful throughout the whole process. All our guests commented on how lovely the venue was and how it was nice to spend the weekend together. This is the perfect venue for anyone who is looking for a more relaxed weekend celebration.
