Ceremonies at Swansea

Swansea - A splendid sea-side setting for a wonderful wedding!

Located on the sea front promenade, the Civic Centre has stunning views over the spectacular Swansea Bay, with the award-winning marina within easy walking distance and the outstanding beauty of the Gower Peninsular is just a short drive away.

With such a superb location and a choice of lovely marriage rooms, the Celebration Suite has a lot to offer. 


All rooms are located at ground level for ease of access with free car parking and close proximity to road and rail systems.


"...stunning views over the spectacular Swansea Bay."


There is a lovely garden with a courtyard wedding-arbour and our patio is set on wide lawns overlooking the beach with Mumbles Point as a lovely backdrop.

Simply, the start of a very special day and an album full of magical memories!
