Your Beach Wedding Ceremony... At Beach Weddings Bournemouth you will be having your ceremony in one of the most unique wedding venues in England & Wales. We have a gorgeous little ivory painted Wedding Hut right on the sands of Bournemouth’s award winning West Cliff Beach. This is the first time that it has been possible to have a legal wedding or civil partnership ceremony right on the sand in this country. The Wedding Hut is located at the foot of the West Cliff lift meaning that it’s perfectly located for the guests to arrive for your ceremony via the lift, although several car parks are also close by allowing a lovely short walk along the promenade to Beach Weddings Bournemouth for those guests who prefer. The Bride makes her arrival using the West Cliff Lift whilst the guests and her Groom eagerly await her arrival inside the marquee. We have a large decked area built off The Wedding Hut on which we have a locally made driftwood arch. Your ceremony will take place under the arch and the signing of
the official Registers takes place inside The Wedding Hut which features local coastal décor and a lovely window overlooking the sea which allows the natural light to flood in. You can hold just your ceremony with us at Beach Weddings Bournemouth, have a ceremony followed by a drinks and canapé (or ice cream!) reception or you can chose your ceremony followed by your wedding breakfast inside the marquee. Whichever choice you make you will be enjoying a truly unique venue and stunning views over the sea no matter what the weather. Here at Beach Weddings Bournemouth you can also have a Sunrise Ceremony. Imagine the romance of being the only people on the beach for a Sunrise Ceremony on the sand overlooking the gorgeous bay. Follow your ceremony with a delicious breakfast and then have the whole day to enjoy being a newly married couple. Availability of this option depends on sunrise times. Please contact us for availability and more information.

Evening Receptions...
Our stunning beach venue is best enjoyed during the daylight hours, so come 7pm you and your guests move on to an exciting evening celebration nearby and the crew at Beach Weddings Bournemouth can help you organise this. We have teamed up with various local partner venues and hotels to bring you a wide choice of evening venues for you to party the night away. Due to our great location at the foot of the cliff lift your guests can easily take the lift to the top and make their way on foot to a local venue or take an early evening stroll along the promenade to the evening venue of your choice. Alternatively if transport is required please see our suppliers list for local companies who can arrange transport for you to meet you/your guests either at the top of the cliff lift or at Pier Approach to take you to your chosen evening reception venue. Or, for something a bit different why not hire a private land train to take you and your guests to your evening reception! We can help you to arrange a viewing of all evening venues and obtain a quotation and check availability for your chosen wedding date. We may be able to negotiate preferential rates so let us know which venue(s) you may be interested in and let us do the rest. If you don’t know the area / evening venues and you would like us to suggest which would be most appropriate for you let us know your “must haves” and we will recommend which would suit you best.

Please note that only natural rose petals and biodegradable confetti are permitted – please do not use paper or foil confetti on the beach as this will be viewed as litter to the beach. Bubbles are a good alternative to traditional confetti. Please ask for further details. If you book for a ceremony only slot and we have a PM ceremony after yours we will not be able to permit the use of confetti inside the marquee as we do not have electricity to enable us to vacuum before the next ceremony ie it needs to be removed by hand. We can assist your photographer in setting up a confetti shot outside for you. The 6m x 6m Chinese Hat Gazebo is unsuitable for extreme weather conditions.

Please be aware that once your Notices of Marriage have been served for The Wedding Hut it will not be possible for the legal exchange of vows to take place in any other licensed venue on your wedding date unless you decide to serve your Notices for more than one venue. If you decide not to service Notices for a second (back up) venue then you do so at your own risk. If a change of venue for your post ceremony drinks / canapé reception is required then we will do our best to arrange for an affirmation / blessing with your guests but we reserve the right to charge for additional expenses incurred in relocating your drinks / canapé reception and arranging an affirmation / blessing of vows as pre-agreed with you. Please note that it is a legal requirement that all guests are able to hear the Registrar and the Bride and Groom take their vows. To ensure this we must insist that the Registrar and the Groom wear very discreet microphones which will be clipped to the Groom’s lapel. The microphones will be turned off for the signing of the register to allow the Bride and Groom privacy and will be removed for photos. At weekends and during school holidays, finding car parking spaces can be difficult. Please ensure your guests allow plenty of time to find somewhere to park to ensure they are not late for the ceremony. Traffic can also be heavy at weekends and during children’s school holidays so as well as ensuring your guests allow extra time for their journeys, please also ensure that the Bride and Groom allow plenty of time to travel from where they are getting ready to the Beach Weddings Bournemouth site. If you are late, it will impact the rest of your day leading to a shorter drinks reception and wedding breakfast. Please also be aware that the Registrars at your ceremony are very busy and will have other ceremonies to conduct at other locations after yours. If you are very late, they may not have time to conduct your ceremony. Beach Weddings Bournemouth are not liable for this. Ceremonies can now be conducted 24 hours a day. Please contact us for more details if you would be interested in having a sunrise ceremony outside of our normal operating times of 10am-7pm.
