After 40 years together, we really do understand gay weddings and civil partnerships. Your venue is going to be the heart of your celebration and you want to feel at home.
We believe you deserve a venue that understands and shares your excitement who want to work with you. Saltcote place is just a large private family home.
We are not a faceless hotel who neither understands or care. We will set aside the time needed to ensure your celebration is perfect. Come and share a bottle of wine and let’s chat.
No two weddings here are ever the same. We do not offer ‘packages’ we simply work with you to develop an entirely bespoke arrangement tailored to meet preferences.
We never run weddings back to back and we are far more than just a Gay-friendly Wedding Venue. With every Celebration we make sure it really does feel totally bespoke and very personal.
You may notice a lot of this has been written so that search engines pick it up.
You can celebrate your gay marriage at our gay wedding venue however you want here, once within the grounds you never have to worry about traffic, parking or non-resident guests impacting your celebration. Saltcote is all about exclusivity.
Your guests will be treated like royalty. And let’s face it, there may well be more than one or two queens present. Children are welcome to our wedding celebrations as long as they are neither the bride or groom. Disabled facilities are in place and all dietary needs can be respected.
Alan and Paul look forward to welcoming you to our home!
View the elevated setting and secluded grounds. You will notice we are a very short walk into town and we offer plenty of parking from where the video starts.
