Choosing where to get married is one of the biggest — and most exciting — decisions of the whole planning process. The good news? The Fylde coast and the wider Lancashire countryside are spoilt for choice, from elegant seafront hotels to romantic country houses and characterful historic halls. As a married photography duo who've worked at venues right across the area, we've put together this guide to help you find the perfect setting for your day.
Seafront & coastal venues
If you've always dreamed of saying "I do" with the sea nearby, the Fylde coast delivers.
• The Glendower Hotel, Lytham St Annes — a long-established seafront favourite with a warm, traditional feel and that lovely coastal setting.
• Clifton Arms Hotel, Lytham — a classic, characterful Lytham hotel overlooking the green and the estuary, perfect for an elegant celebration.
• The Boulevard Hotel, Blackpool — one of the more stylish, modern options on the New South Promenade for couples who want a contemporary seaside vibe.
• The Wedding Chapel, Blackpool Promenade — a striking ceremony setting right on the iconic seafront, with the Tower and the sea as your backdrop.
Grand & iconic Blackpool venues
For couples who want a sense of occasion and a touch of glamour, Blackpool's landmark venues are hard to beat.
• The Blackpool Tower Ballroom — few settings in the country are as breathtaking. The sweeping dancefloor, ornate ceilings and sheer grandeur make for a truly unforgettable celebration and spectacular photographs.
• The Imperial Hotel, Blackpool — a grand, historic seafront hotel with timeless elegance and beautiful coastal views.
Country house & rustic venues
Just inland, the Fylde countryside offers some gorgeous options for couples who want greenery, charm and a relaxed, rustic feel.
• Lytham Hall — a magnificent Georgian country house set in beautiful parkland, oozing history and elegance. A real showstopper for photographs.
• The Villa, Wrea Green — a four-star country house hotel nestled in a quaint village between Preston and Blackpool, much loved for its charm and setting.
• The Glass House at Staining — a newer venue set in the rolling Fylde countryside, with a bright, glamorous space and a lovely outdoor ceremony area for sunny vows.
• Singleton Lodge, Singleton — a peaceful country house venue surrounded by gardens, ideal for an intimate, relaxed celebration.
• The River Barn, Little Singleton — a rustic, characterful barn setting for couples after that countryside-romance feel.
• Ribby Hall Village, near Wrea Green — a versatile venue with plenty of space and facilities for larger celebrations.
Smaller & registry options
Planning something more intimate? Smaller ceremonies have a magic all their own.
• Fylde Town Hall, Lytham St Annes — a beautiful civic building full of architectural character, original stained glass and history, just a stone's throw from the beach for photos afterwards.
• Many of the seafront hotels above also cater wonderfully for smaller, intimate weddings.
A few things to think about when choosing
• Picture the photos. Walk the grounds and imagine where you'd love your portraits taken — gardens, staircases, sea views or a grand ballroom all create very different albums.
• Think about the season. A coastal venue is glorious in summer; a cosy country house comes into its own in autumn and winter.
• Consider your guest numbers. Some venues suit an intimate gathering beautifully, while others shine with a big celebration — match the space to your day.
• Always ask about a wet-weather plan. This is the Fylde coast, after all — and the best venues will have a beautiful backup ready.
