Blackfriars Priory

Blackfriars Priory is an utterly unique wedding venue steeped in history and secretly hidden away in the heart of Gloucester.

The enchanting medieval priory dates from the 13th century and has been sympathetically restored to retain its true historic beauty, whilst transforming it into a welcoming space to host wedding celebrations.

Blackfriars Priory’s impressive architecture makes for an atmospheric setting for weddings – not to mention striking photographs – with the blank-canvas venue suiting an array of different wedding themes.

Couples can host both the wedding ceremony and reception at Blackfriars Priory, as well as choosing to simply say their vows at the priory or hold their evening celebration in the historic surroundings.

Brides and grooms can say ‘I do’ in the North Range, the original priory church building, which benefits from stunning tall glass windows that beautifully light up the space. While the East Range, a striking part of the original building, is more suited to intimate weddings with capacity for up to 60 guests.

Couples opting to hold the entire day at Blackfriars will get exclusive use of the whole site and cloister garden, with the choice of tying the knot in either the North or East Range.
