We love seeing couples include their four-legged family members - from ring bearers to VIP guests, dogs have been a part of so many magical moments here. If your dream wedding includes your dog, we'd love to welcome you and your furry friend to celebrate with us!

☀️Embrace the charm of a quintessentially British Summer wedding!

🌿 Our picture-perfect Heritage Parks in full bloom provide a breath-taking backdrop for your special day. Imagine this: bunting fluttering in the breeze, guests dining on a nostalgic feast of Pimm’s, cucumber sandwiches, sausage rolls, and strawberries & cream, all served on vintage china.

🧀 If you aren’t a fan of sandwiches, why not opt for Wild Figs' grazing table, "the British," featuring four distinct British cheeses? And for the little ones (or the young at heart), a whimsical Alice in Wonderland style grazing table with themed props and tableware.

🍦 And let's not forget to book Sevanetti’s vintage ice cream trike! Because there's nothing quite like indulging in an ice cream on a sunny day. ☀️

🎂 Today we are celebrating Jane Austen's birthday!

Born on 16 December 1775, the renowned author found inspiration in Bath, her home from 1801 to 1806. The city was then a thriving spa resort and the Pump Room, a fashionable society meeting place. The venue captured her imagination, making appearances in 'Northanger Abbey' and 'Persuasion.'

As you can see, the Pump Room retains its elegant charm - a perfect spot to gather and socialise!

Here at Bath’s Historic Venues HQ we have a fantastic view from our office over the Sacred Spring at the Roman Baths. Yesterday, there was literally a spring clean going on right underneath our noses! Algae and mineral deposits were being cleaned off stonework and the new energy exchange blades, which harvest heat from the thermal waters for surrounding buildings. We can see the water bubbling up from underground at 46 degrees C, which it’s been doing for thousands of years - amazing! #springclean #romanbaths #uniquevenue #uniqueevents #bathvenues #events2023 #events2024
