Wookey Hole Caves

Wookey Hole offers a wedding venue like no other, combining natural wonder with timeless romance. Deep within the Mendip Hills, couples can exchange vows in chambers sculpted over millions of years by the River Axe, surrounded by candlelight, crystal-clear pools, and breathtaking rock formations.

Whether planning an intimate ceremony or a grand celebration, Wookey Hole’s caves create a magical backdrop that will leave lasting memories. For those who prefer an above-ground option, the elegant Waterwheel Suite provides historic charm and a striking alternative setting.

Facilities

Ceremonies

Couples can choose from a truly unique cave ceremony or the Victorian Waterwheel Suite. The caves offer an unforgettable atmosphere, with spaces tailored for both small gatherings and larger celebrations. The Waterwheel Suite is fully licensed for weddings and furnished with vintage wooden chairs, offering flexibility and a beautiful indoor space that reflects the heritage of the site. Every ceremony is tailored to ensure it feels personal, heartfelt, and unforgettable.

Reception Spaces

After the vows, celebrations continue in one of Wookey Hole’s versatile reception spaces.

The Mill Restaurant welcomes up to 200 guests in a vibrant and spacious setting, complete with colourful ceiling drapes, chandeliers, glittering lights, a dance floor, a private bar, and outdoor space.

The Waterwheel Suite, located in a Grade II listed Victorian paper mill, overlooks the iconic working waterwheel and features elegant carved details and exposed brickwork. It can be beautifully dressed to reflect each couple’s vision and is also licensed for ceremonies.

Accommodation

Wookey Hole makes it easy for couples and guests to relax and extend the celebration. The on-site Wookey Hole Hotel offers comfortable accommodation with family and accessible rooms, along with a large “getting ready” suite to prepare for the big day. Just steps away from the reception spaces and a short stroll from the caves, it ensures convenience and comfort. For a touch of luxury, Mendip View Lodges provide private hot tubs and stunning countryside views — a tranquil retreat perfect for romantic escapes or group stays. Both options include special wedding rates for guests and complimentary extras for the couple.

  • Cathleen

    The wedding coordinator Steph is simply AMAZING, nothing was too big or small. Steph was there from start to finish. All the staff at Wookey Hole caves went over and beyond to make sure that the day was unforgettable and it was. I had a photo with King Kong, got to play mini golf and had the best day of my life. I would definitely recommend Wookey Hole Caves as a wedding location.

  • Richard and Yana

    The cave scenery is breathtaking both inside out. Two years later all our friends still talk about our wedding. So relaxed, yet beautifully organised, fine wine, great food, music, candles, diving, love and sunshine filled the day. For someone who is looking for a beautifully elegant yet out of the ordinary wedding venue, Wookey Hole is very much worth a look…

  • Helen and Simon

    We had a fabulous time! In Simon's words 'it was a magical experience'. The cave was truly breathtaking.
    Thank you so much for your friendly and professional service and for witnessing our marriage. All the hotel team were attentive and the little touches made it extra special - we unpacked our bags at home to a sprinkle of rogue confetti from our room! We loved the "witch's tower" and that the witch had magicked our towels into swans! The evening meals and breakfasts were delicious - the toffee pudding...yum!
    Outstanding weekend and we'd like to do it all over again!

  • Nikki

    Every guest I spoke to said how friendly and helpful your team were, no one had a bad word about anyone, which I think is great. I know it was a logistical nightmare doing everything by email and phone call, but you and your team set the caves up so beautifully.
    I would love to extend my thanks to you for the long distance organising you did. And a thanks to your team for making our guests feel so welcome.
    Thank you so much.

  • Adam and Darren Burch

    I want to thank you so very much for all you did in planning our wedding. The best decision we made was to hire you! You were fabulous, and your knowledge and experience was so helpful. But most of all, it was the day of our wedding itself that we want to thank you for.
    Our wedding day was the best day - we had fun and enjoyed ourselves with our families and friends. Because of you, knowing you had everything under control, we did not have to worry about anything! Again, thank you. Our wedding day would not have been the same experience without you, our family and friends are still talking about how much fun they had and just how beautiful you and your team made everything, we can not thank you enough.
    Thank you so very much for everything.
