If you and your partner love sport in Berkshire, then where better to choose for your wedding than a sports venue in Berkshire? Football clubs, rugby stadiums and motor racing tracks often have great hospitality facilities for hosting your big day. It’s also a brilliant way to incorporate your love of sports or your local team into your wedding day.
Even if you’re not into sports, don’t discount local sporting venues in Berkshire, as many of them make for elegant wedding venues. Golf clubs in particular have beautiful grounds and fantastic mod cons, as well as being generally set in peaceful and beautiful locations that are ideal for weddings. Sailing and rowing clubs are fabulous waterside wedding venues, and can make for a readymade nautical wedding theme. Racecourses already host plenty of luxurious events and dinners, so they’re great choices for a glamorous wedding venue - and everyone will love the chance to get out their best hats!
This will vary hugely depending on your chosen sports venue in Berkshire. Venues that also have accommodation, such as golf courses or clubs, are more likely to have a civil ceremony license than a football or rugby stadium or a cricket club. These venues are more likely to be used to host receptions and functions rather than the ceremony itself. However, it’s always worth checking with your shortlist to see if they’re licensed for civil ceremonies.
If your wedding is at a stadium near Berkshire, then there are some unique wedding photo opportunities on offer! Lots of football and rugby stadiums offer pitchside wedding photos, and in larger venues such as Twickenham you may be able to take photos in the changing rooms (not at the same time as the players, of course!).
Sporting fixtures will need to be taken into consideration when choosing a sports venue. As these will often take place at a weekend, you may find that you have fewer Saturdays and Sundays to choose from for your wedding date. If you’re willing to be flexible with your wedding date or to marry during your sport’s off-season, then your venue should be more than happy to accommodate you. For example, sailing and rowing clubs in Berkshire will be more likely to host weddings during the cooler months, as are cricket clubs. However, it’s always worth checking your ideal dates with your venue!
As sporting venues in Berkshire tend to draw crowds, there are often hotels very close by. This means your guests have plenty of accommodation to choose from if they're staying the night. In the case of golf clubs, there is often on-site accommodation, and you may even be able to enjoy a spa break into the mix too!
Absolutely not! Often the events rooms at sporting venues will be neutral enough for you to bring your own style into the venue. However, if you’re a fan of the club or you just want to incorporate the sport of the venue into your wedding in some way, this should be relatively simple! It may be that the colours of the venue reflect the local club, which means you can also make them your wedding colours, or there may be a theme to the general decor. Make sure you discuss different decor options when meeting the wedding planner.
