The Castle Rolls
Castle wedding venues in Wales.
15 castles in Wales that host weddings, strongest first. Wales has more castles per square mile than anywhere in Europe, but only a small number of them take weddings - most are Cadw ruins. These are the ones that do. Every entry is either described by a real visitor or confirmed on the venue’s own site.

Where this list comes from
Castles get onto this roll one of two ways. Some are here because a real visitor described a wedding at the castle in a Google review - where they did, their words are on the card. The rest are here because the castle's own site advertises weddings; open the castle's page and the link to their site is on it. If a venue you know isn't listed, it just hasn't reached us yet from either source - let us know and we'll add it.
Always check before you book
Being on this roll is a steer, not a booking. We hold no prices, capacities, licence status or available dates, and all four change constantly - check the castle's own page (linked from every entry) and speak to the venue directly before you plan anything around it.
