Woodland Weddings at Boiling Wells

wedding party at our larch barn

Create the magical day that you've always dreamt of and share with friends and family in the midst of a magical woodland, food forest and conservation site.

Boiling Wells can host up to six green woodland weddings each year and celebrations take place on Saturdays.

Nestled in a tranquil woodland valley a five minute walk from St Werburghs City Farm, Boiling Wells is 2.5 acres of rich nature with a steeped orchard, rambling soft fruit, grass terraces, wild green spaces, native trees and a nearby stream.

The seclusion, peace and serenity of the site is what makes it so special.

Our Woodland Wedding package includes exclusive site hire from 1PM on FRIDAY until 8PM on SUNDAY.

With the hire of the Boiling Wells site, you have use of:

  • gazebos
  • 8m x 4m marquee
  • rustic wooden tables / benches
  • event coordinator to be present for you on the day, make sure everything runs smoothly and to liaise with caterers, toilet hire companies, etc.

To help you get started, we've put together a list of great local producers and green suppliers to ensure your event has that "Made in Bristol" feel. We can link you up with the City Farm Cafe, Houria Catering, Pie Minster or the Thali Cafe for bespoke catering options.

You're welcome to bring decorations (reduce, reuse and recycle), but please take everything away afterwards, and please remove trash and recycling with you.
