The Closest Outdoor Ceremony Venue to the Sea in Cornwall

Looking for an unbelievable ceremony venue just two meters from the sea? Our stunning

Azura Deck Summerhouse offers an idyllic setting to take your wedding vows. Plan your civil

ceremony to coincide with high tide and your wedding backdrop will add romantic sparkle

to your fairy-tale day. The ceremony will take place within the Summerhouse,

accommodating yourselves, your two witnesses and the two registrars. The surrounding

decking area can then seat up to 30 guests.

Although outdoor ceremonies are spectacular, they are open to the elements and are

weather dependant. A decision will be made by us the night before the ceremony as to

whether an outdoor ceremony will be possible, unfortunately if not, alternative indoor

arrangements will be made for you. Please be advised that as for all civil ceremonies, you

will need to notify the Superintendent Registrar as soon as possible of you choosing an

outdoor ceremony.
