Why should you get married in Birmingham?

“Whether you’re a newbie or a native, Birmingham has an incredible amount of variety for those looking to make special memories with those that matter most to you,” says _______.

“We got married in the city at the beginning of last year and it was incredible. There’s no place like it.”

But that’s not all.

Birmingham also offers a huge range of venue diversity, whether you’re after a modern cityscape view, a rustic escape or a historical haven. Whatever unique atmosphere you’re after, Birmingham is the place for you, providing incredible photo backdrops – including Digbeth’s iconic street art scene, the lofty rooms of Birmingham City Gallery and stunning parkland throughout.

On par with other cities (cough, London, cough) we’re also reasonably priced. Without skimping on style, quality or value for all aspects of your wedding, Birmingham comes top of the crop for overall experience without breaking the bank.

Finally, no one does hospitality like us Brummies. We’re friendly as they come, which means that the event planners, professionals and vendors who are part and parcel of your big day will be too.
