Weddings in Mid & East Antrim

Small Wedding Venues for Intimate Ceremonies and Elopements

Mid and East Antrim Borough Council licensed both presidential cottages and the Gobbins Cliff Path to host wedding ceremonies.  So if you’ve ever dreamt of getting married at an iconic venue that offers a truly unique wedding experience then we could have the venue for you. If exchanging your vows at a historic thatched cottage or perhaps overlooking the Gobbins Cliff Path sounds like all you have been looking for, then dream no more.

Both cottages can host you and up to 12 guests for your wedding ceremony or there is the option of a garden ceremony accommodating up to 32 guests.

Enjoy the warmth of the open fire as you exchange your vows in the most intimate of surroundings or, take the opportunity to march up the isle in the US Rangers Museum. Afterwards, at Arthur Cottage, the apple orchard in the gardens will provide a beautiful private area for photographs or enjoy the magnificent backdrop of Carrickfergus Castle on Belfast Lough in the Andrew Jackson Cottage garden. 

Either way, these alternative venues are sure to be talked about for years after the ‘I do’s’.

Finally, for those brave enough to face the elements, the viewing platform at The Gobbins Cliff Path is ready to welcome you and up to 17 of your guests to exchange nuptials as you overlook the stunning scenery of the dramatic East Antrim coastline.  Prepare to wow your guests with uninterrupted views across the North Channel as you celebrate your special day. 

Each unique venue will host one wedding per day to guarantee you exclusive use of the venue.

Your wedding will not only be unforgettable it will be part of history!
