Maybe you just want to be married without all the usual fuss and expense. Or perhaps you really are marrying in secret and looking for a small but pretty elopement wedding venue in the area.  

Whatever the reason, the ceremony space at Arches is gloriously romantic and intimate, and the perfect location for a petite wedding. Book it from 9am to 11am, Monday to Saturday.

Booking the ceremony space


The Arches ceremony space is available from 9am to 11am, Monday to Saturday, for small, elopement-style weddings. So you have plenty of time for a beautiful ceremony and a few photographs before heading off for your wedding celebration elsewhere.

Planning an elopement wedding?


To get legally married at Arches you need to book the registrar and then give at least 29 days’ notice to the local authority about your up-and-coming wedding ceremony.   

We just wanted to get married in front of a handful of friends. The ceremony was short and perfect, and then we went out for a celebratory Champagne brunch!
