Approved venues

To get married at an approved venue you need to contact the venue first and agree a provisional date. Once you have a date you then need to book a ceremony with us. 

The Isle of Wight has many licensed premises covering a variety of hotels and historic buildings. We also provide ceremonies at our Seaclose site. For details of our approved venues view our interactive venue map.

If you choose an approved premise elsewhere in England or Wales you should contact the Superintendent Registrar of the district where it is located to confirm availability.

Outside ceremonies

Weddings can take place outside in the grounds of any approved venue. Please check with your chosen venue whether they offer this option.

We are happy to try and accommodate ceremonies outside or in a garden structure at an approved venue between 1 March and 31 October. 

If you would like your ceremony to take place outside or in a garden structure, advise the registrar when you complete your legal paperwork.
