Getting Married in Warwickshire

Getting married in Warwickshire? If so, you are in the right place! The information below will help kick start your planning.

Beautiful Warwickshire is known as ‘the heart of England’ thanks to its central position.

Stationery

Once you’ve confirmed your venue and where you are getting married in Warwickshire, you’ll want to start thinking about your wedding stationery. We love the unique creations of The Making Cupboard by Amy Ede, based in Stratford-upon-Avon. We’re still baffled and amazed, and can’t quite figure out how she hand makes such cute little invites!

Celebrants

Thinking of avoiding a civil or religious ceremony? You could opt for something truly unique by hiring a celebrant. There are so many amazing celebrants who deliver ceremonies across Warwickshire, such as Stand out Ceremonies and My Perfect Ceremony.

Catering

Depending on the venue you choose, you may also want to start thinking about catering. Who doesn’t love thinking about food though, right?! Warwickshire is home to some amazing wedding caterers such as The Wild Oven (who are also currently setting up a bar offering, Travelling Box Bars, so watch this space!), The Chef’s Kitchen and The Lazy Pig.
