Are you on the lookout for the ideal small wedding venue in Liverpool? No matter if you’re expecting 15, 25, or 50 guests, we’re more than happy to help you find the best location for your small wedding. Here are some insights from our Liverpool venue hire experts:

• Don’t be afraid to go for something unusual. Intimate weddings usually allow for more creativity. Liverpool is full of unique function rooms, as well as quirky spaces you wouldn’t normally associate with a bridal bash. How about a warehouse, a cosy local pub, an elegant art gallery, or even a crazy bar?
• Always remember to check the venue’s licences. Would you like to host both the wedding ceremony and the reception in one place? If your answer is “yes,” don’t forget to ask the venue manager if their space is licensed for what you’re planning. With our collection of Liverpool’s best small wedding venues, you’re sure to find one that’s suitable!
• Make the most out of your budget. Hosting a smaller reception allows you to pick options you wouldn’t consider otherwise. Find areas where you can splurge a little.
