We have three very unique locations for civil ceremonies. The Temple of Minerva - a hidden gem in the tranquil setting of Bath Botanical Gardens, Royal Victoria Park Bandstand with views of the stunning Royal Crescent and Parade Gardens with a choice of the Edwardian Bandstand or riverside Colonnades central to the UNESCO World Heritage City of Bath with wonderful views off Pulteney Bridge, City spires and Bath Abbey.
Each venue is licensed for civil ceremonies and has an adjacent lawn area which makes them perfect locations for marquees.

A fantastic day we’ll never forget
Despite delays and uncertainty due to COVID-19, we could still have a very special wedding day due to the kindness, flexibility, and professionalism of Heritage Park Weddings. At every stage of the process we felt confident that we had made the right choice of venue. Thank you for giving us a fantastic day we’ll never forget!

Highly recommend their Winter Package
Jess and the team helped us to have the most wonderfully special day. Jess' unwavering support, calm nature and amazing organisation skills made the wedding preparation process so seamless. The Temple is the most wonderful event space. I would highly recommend their Winter Package Deal. Best decision we made.

All the staff on the day were helpful and friendly and we are so pleased we chose Temple of Minerva for our wedding.
Thanks again
