Spotlight on... Brighton & Hove |
|
The Royal Pavilion, Brighton
This breathtaking Regency palace offers a striking venue for civil wedding ceremonies and receptions in the heart of Brighton’s cultural quarter. Built as King George IV’s pleasure palace when Brighton was at the height of fashionable Regency society, the Royal Pavilion was also used by William IV and Queen Victoria.
Today it can be enjoyed in its original 1823 splendour, with Indian architecture contrasting with exotic interiors inspired by China. As well as welcoming royalty and distinguished guests, since 1995 the palace has hosted some of the country’s most beautiful weddings; the Royal Pavilion’s exquisite elegance making the perfect backdrop for your special day.
Exchange your vows in the dazzling splendour of the palace’s Music Room, one of its most spectacular and impressive state rooms. If you’re looking for a ceremony room simply takes your breath away, this fits the bill; up to 90 guests enter via the main grand entrance and are led in via the exotic, Chinese-inspired Long Gallery.
Alternatively, if you have up to 44 guests you can say ‘I do’ to the Red Drawing Room; which retains much of George IV’s striking 1820s decorative scheme, incorporating the Royal Pavilion’s distinctive dragon wallpaper and palm tree pillars. Located on the ground floor, it benefits from its own private entrance leading directly from the Regency garden, offering the feel of true exclusivity to this area of the palace on your special day.

No way, I'd like to have a ring to pass down through the generations: 88% Yes, it makes a great ring alternative: 3% I plan to do both: 9% | |
