About voco™ Oxford Spires Hotel

voco Oxford Spires Hotel is just a short walk along the River Thames into the city centre, however being set within 38 acres of picturesque parkland, it is the perfect compromise between a city and countryside wedding venue.

As you approach the hotel, the tree-lined driveway – flanked by the neighboring horse sanctuary and apple orchard – opens up to reveal the modern Cotswolds stone building. The mix of contemporary elegance and traditional architecture is the perfect setting to host your wedding celebrations.

This Oxford venue sets the tone for a beautiful wedding day with elegance, charming design features, and historic character. From large magnificent weddings filled with tradition and plenty of friends and family, to intimate weddings, here you’ll find ample choice of spaces for your big day.

The Cathedral Suite, refurbished in 2018, is a beautiful large function space in which can be broken down into 4 smaller intimate spaces. With grey and white tones throughout, this space is the perfect blank, yet elegant canvas for you to add your own touches. When fully open, it can accommodate up to 160 guests for a wedding breakfast and 250 guests for an evening reception. With its own private patio and private bar, this is the perfect space to celebrate with your nearest and dearest.

During this exciting time, you must have many questions! So join the wedding coordinator, Robyn, over some refreshments to discuss everything you need and how the Oxford Spires can make your big day perfect and stress-free.
