Introduction

It’s never too early to start thinking about your ideal venue, and if you want a city centre wedding with style, choose St. Mary’s Guildhall, one of the finest medieval guildhalls in England.

St. Mary’s Guildhall, near the ruins of Coventry's old Cathedral, has been a popular venue for several centuries, offering today's guests an authentic medieval experience and, for marriages, a magnificent alternative to a traditional church wedding.

Whether you choose to hold you wedding ceremony, your wedding reception or both, the experienced and friendly team will ensure your wedding day is an exceptional and memorable event.

Civil weddings can be held in a choice of three historic rooms, each with a different seating capacity, creating that intimate and special atmosphere. We offer an extensive menu selection, which can be tailored to meet your specific needs if required

St. Mary’s has stood at the heart of Coventry for over 650 years, and witnessed events of both national and local importance. It served as the centre of King Henry VI’s court during the War of the Roses and as a prison to Mary, Queen of Scots. William Shakespeare is thought to have staged his plays here and writer George Eliot, who knew the hall well, features it in a scene from one of her novels. Though scarred, it survived the blitz of Coventry during the Second World War, remaining one of the city's finest historic buildings.

We are confident that your day in this unique wedding venue, in the very heart of Coventry’s old city, will provide memories to last a lifetime.
