THE TOWN HALL
The Town Hall is a jewel in Colchester’s crown. From its prominent town centre location, this magnificent Baroque structure with its Victorian tower and statue of St Helena, Colchester’s patron saint, dominates the town. Bursting with old-fashioned glamour, the Town Hall’s opulent interiors are fully licenced for ceremonies and receptions, offering style and grandeur for all occasions.
Our outstanding function rooms are all beautifully decorated with ornate and original features such as stained-glass windows, oil paintings and murals, and are still used for their original purpose today including Mayoral and Civic events. The building boasts a rich heritage and couples are guaranteed to make a grand red carpet entrance from the moment they step inside.

Fulfil Your Dreams of an English Castle Wedding!
At the grand, gated entrance of Castle Park lies Colchester Castle, one of England’s most important heritage sites. Built on the foundations of the Temple of Claudius, at a time when Colchester was the first Roman capital of Britain, this is one of Colchester’s most unique and awe-inspiring wedding
venues.
Whether you choose a large celebration or a small and intimate wedding with family and close friends, this historic venue creates the perfect backdrop to your big day. Make your choice of the Charles Gray Room, The Chapel, and the Secret Chapel (rooftop location) - three unique and romantic spaces, filled with light and charm.
