Haunting Halloween Wedding Venues

7th October 2021

The scary season is fast approaching, and we at Amazing Space Weddings love to embrace the spooky and spectacular. On the hunt for the perfect venue that evokes a unique mix of romance, glamour and that festive halloween feeling? We’ve got you covered.

Take a look at our top picks for some spooky-style spots that will certainly be haunting your wedding plans.

Arnos Vale

Hidden away in a Bristol Cemetary, Arnos Vale is the ideal wedding venue for someone looking for something a little different. Spook and elegance are blended well at this venue, with twinkling fairylights, a haunting bell tower and sunlight peeking through the trees to grace the surroundings. Nothing quite says Halloween as a wedding in a cemetery!

Newcastle Castle

Welcome to Newcastle Castle, a wedding venue straight out of Medieval History to add a little magic to your day. With surly guards to greet your guests, or cannons to announce your wedding in style, this castle manages to be ominous and opulent all in one historic package. Built in 1080 by the eldest son of Willian the Conqueror, with additions from Platagenet Kings, there could certainly be an old royal ghost or two milling around, just waiting to say hello.

Dalby Forest

Who knows what's hiding in the forest… other than a lovely little wedding venue! Dalby Forest Visitor Centre is a small, informal ‘do it yourself’ style spot, giving you the chance to design your ideal intimate wedding. Set in the stunning woodland in the heart of the North York Moors, you can make this wedding venue as spinge-tinglingly scary as you like, with the nightime forest a naturally eerie setting for Halloween fans.

Wookey Hole Caves

This witchy location looks straight out of a Grimm’s Fairytale. Wookey Hole Caves has everything and anything you need to turn your wedding into a real halloween adventure; these ancient and majestic caves consist of 3 chambers, featuring stunning rock formations and clear pools, all illuminated by dancing candlelight. Wedding ceremonies are only allowed from 5pm onwards… enter if you dare…

HMS Unicorn

We don’t have any ghost ships lying around at Amazing Space Weddings, but with a 200 year history and as the third oldest ship afloat, Scotland’s HMS Unicorn might be the next best thing! Become a part of its rich history by exchanging your vows on board one of the world’s few remaining wooden warships from the ‘Golden Age of Sail’. Sailing the spooky seven seas just got more romantic!

Neidpath Castle

Staying up in Scotland, Neidpath Castle is a top spot for an intimate and relaxing wedding venue with a slightly eerie touch. This castle remains unchanged from the 1400s, featuring a distinctly spooky peep into a medieval pit prison and an ancient well within the vaulted cellars. The views from this wedding venue are incredible, particularly when surrounded by snow in winter!

The Coppermines Mountain Wedding Venue

This venue lives by the rule that a memorable wedding starts with a memorable location. Surrounded by magnificent views, with bubbling becks, waterfalls and rugged crags that sit in the heart of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this is certainly a special venue! Situated in a true mountain environment, this isolated spot is a while away from civilization, where no-one can hear you scream… so you can party the night away!

Smeaton’s Tower

Smeaton’s Tower is a historic building in a unique location, with Plymouth Sound an amazing backdrop for your small ceremony. You’ll need to climb 93 steps to the top - the first 23 being stone steps, and the last 70 are original ladders! This isn’t a wedding venue for anyone afraid of heights and small spaces, but its rustic walls, incredible views and hair-raising ascent make it perfect for any halloween fans!

Painshill Park

Based in the heart of Surrey, this wedding venue allows a range of choices for any happy couple. With gothic temples, an intimidating ampitheatre and romantic ruined Abbeys, Painshill offers a host of spooky spots without sacrificing its elegance, natural beauty and tranquility.

Dunwood Hall

Dunwood Hall is a Grade ll listed building; a private, lived-in home not open to the public. Passed down through 4 generations, it evokes both grandeur and romance.

This venue isn’t interested in creating a revolving door of guests waiting to be married; they choose to co-ordinate a few unique weddings each year, perfectly tailored to each happy couple. This is what makes it perfect for any horror fan; this gothic wedding venue will do its best to bring some magic to your big day, whether it’s inviting round some ghouls or arranging a unicorn for you to ride off into the sunset.
