About

Oxford Town Hall is a stunning venue in the heart of Oxford. It is perfect for wedding ceremonies and receptions (prices are for the civil ceremony only).

Oxford Town Hall is the ideal venue for all wedding celebrations including ceremonies, wedding breakfasts, drinks and evening receptions.

Located in the heart of Oxford, this Grade II* Victorian listed building can accommodate from big to more intimate ceremonies and receptions. Our Main Hall (our largest room), for instance, can accommodate up to 650 guests for a ceremony, 500 for an informal reception and 300 for dining. Our St Aldate’s room, instead, can hold up to 45 guests for a ceremony and 30 guests for dining.

We pride ourselves on presentation, service and quality. That’s why we will only have one wedding ceremony in the venue at any one time so that you and your guests can have our undivided attention.

If you want to make your ceremony extra special, you can hire our Father Willis Organ or piano. And, for receptions with live bands, we can offer staging.

Beautiful building, both from the outside and inside. We had our wedding here and the staff was amazing. They were always happy to help and on the day of the wedding everything went smoothly.

Felix and Inés

We only have words of praise for the Town Hall! It was the perfect venue for our wedding ceremony. The location is beautiful and everybody was super friendly and helpful

Helen and Andy

The Town Hall as a venue for a wedding is great and good value for money compared with other Oxford venues. The Main Hall looked stunning when it was set out for the reception and a number of guests told us how impressed they were by it. All of the rooms had plenty of space for our relatively large number of guests and were well laid out. The fireplace in the Assembly Room also made a great backdrop for the ceremony.

The wedding at the Town Hall was perfect. Many thanks to Sue and Kate for all their hard work to make our day so amazing! A huge thanks to Sue, who is exceptional and was the reason we came back to organise another event at the Town Hall.

Faye and Andras

We had a lovely time, thank you so much. We were put at complete ease by the registrars and they made the experience so much more enjoyable. The building is so beautiful

Sarah and Terry

We can not praise the venue and the staff enough. The staff went above and beyond to help and guide us, not only on the wedding day but also beforehand. They were incredibly patient and thoughtful. The wedding party praised the venue on a number of occasions and we could not be happier with the service.

Just wanted to say thank you so much for all your efforts - we had the most amazing day (and the "bridal lift" worked a treat - fit the whole bridal party!!).

Jonny and Charlotte

We are both still buzzing from the event. It was such a great day. Kate was wonderful. She allowed us to plan, and then set out what we imagined. She answered all out emails straight away. She was knowledgeable about vendors. She seemed to always have time for us.

Jean-Patrick and Julien

It was all such a wonderful day, and everything was done to make us feel supported and comfortable at the Town Hall. I wouldn't have a single bad thing to say. The room was ideal, we felt welcome, everything was well prepared and it contributed to how magical the day went.
