Planning a wedding in Cheltenham
Cheltenham's Regency terraces, tree-lined Promenade and elegant Montpellier quarter give it a graceful, polished character. It is also the western gateway to the Cotswolds, which means couples can enjoy a town ceremony and a countryside reception within a short drive of each other.
Town and Cotswolds
The town has historic halls, hotels, restaurants and gardens, many of them in classic white stucco buildings. Climb out of town and Cleeve Hill, the highest point in the Cotswolds, gives sweeping views across the Severn Vale towards the Malverns and Wales. Beyond it lie stone villages, manor houses, barns and estates, the kind of settings for which the Cotswolds are famous. Charlton Kings and Bishops Cleeve sit on the edge of the hills, while Tewkesbury, with its abbey, and Gloucester, with its cathedral, are close by. Stroud and Cirencester widen the choice to the south.
Festival dates
Cheltenham is known for its festivals, and the most famous is the racing festival in March, when hotels for miles around are booked months in advance. The town's literature, jazz and science festivals also bring visitors at other times of the year. Check the calendar before you fix your date, and tell guests to book rooms early if your wedding falls near a festival.
Planning tips
- Cotswold lanes are narrow, and some villages have limited parking. Book transport that suits the roads and arrange guest travel for the evening.
- Many barn and estate venues are dry hire. Allow time to source caterers, bar staff, furniture and lighting.
- The M5 runs past the town, and Cheltenham Spa station connects with Bristol, Birmingham and London. Bristol and Birmingham airports are within reach.
In England, civil ceremonies must be held at a register office or approved premises, and you give notice at your local register office. The Gloucestershire register office service can confirm current notice periods.
