Top Pub Wedding Venues in Dorset
Some weddings serve scallops with saffron foam. Others serve pies with pints. Dorset pub wedding venues are able to cater to both. There are thatched-roof inns in Wareham, garden pubs overlooking the coast, and countryside retreats near Shaftesbury that host open-air weddings with sheep watching in the background. Some feel like cosy manor houses, others like your favourite local, just polished up for the big day. Great beer, delicious food, and no pressure to dress the room in ivory. Discover pub wedding locations to celebrate this new chapter of your life!
