Let us look at some beautiful wedding venues in Paisley.

Church Weddings:
One of the most popular venues in Paisley, The Abbey is known for its gorgeous church
weddings. Paisley Abbey was founded by Walter Fitzalan, the High Stewart of Scotland on a
piece of land his family owned in Renfrewshire, a few miles from Glasgow. It was also the
cradle of the Royal House of Stewart and was almost burned down completely in 1307 and
restored in the late 14th century. If you and your fiancé are avid lovers of history with
romanticism, then Paisley Abbey should be your choice of venue for its beauty, scenic
landscape, and rich cultural history.

Hotel Weddings:
The Watermill Hotel in Paisley is an ideal location to host your wedding celebrations. The
staff is warm and helpful and has been known to go out of their way to make your event a
success. They have a specialist wedding coordinator to ease your wedding planning and
coordinate everything with your guests to ensure your wedding is a smashing success.

Whether you plan a modern wedding or a traditional Scottish wedding, the Watermill Hotel
is known to cater to large and intimate weddings with the same eye towards detail. Indulge
in traditional Scottish food and dance while you get to enjoy your wedding in harmony. By
having your wedding venue in the Watermill Hotel, you can rest assured that your guests
will be well taken care of. You can also coordinate with the hotel staff for rooms, travel to
and from the airport, and small trips for your wedding guests.

Garden Weddings:
Paisley has a lovely warm climate despite the annual rainfall. April is the best season to
consider a garden marriage in Paisley since you are least likely to encounter rainfall.
Paisley is home to some beautiful gardens that offer beautiful flowers, grass, and fountains.
The Fountain Gardens in Paisley, created in 1797 by businessman John Love and later
restored to their former glory in 1866 by industrialist Thomas Coats, have been one of the
most beautiful venues in Paisley to host spectacular weddings. You can easily
accommodate a large wedding party or an intimate one. Get in touch with local caterers,
florists, and decorators to make your garden wedding a stunning success.

Town Hall:
Paisley Town Hall is a beautiful building very close to Paisley Abbey. Built in 1882, the
Edwardian architectural marvel was built by a wealthy benefactor who left an enormous
sum of money in his will for the construction. Paisley Town Hall is used for large concerts,
business conferences, music shows, and weddings. With excellent interiors that match any
5-star hotel, the upstairs reception area is used for drinks and buffet spreads on the large
balcony, while the main hall can be converted to accommodate large or small weddings.
You can also decorate the venue according to your taste for a more intimate feel. With
friendly staff and excellent service, Paisley Town Hall should definitely be on your list of
wedding venues in Paisley.

No matter which venue you select, ensure that you know beforehand what sort of wedding
you want. You must decide whether it will be indoors or outdoors, how many guests will
attend, whether you want to host the reception at a smaller venue or adjoining the wedding
venue. Deciding all these things in advance will help filter your wedding venue hunt when
you’re in Paisley. Paisley wedding venues have the ability to cater to religious, humanist,
and civil ceremonies. If you want, you could also opt for a traditional Scottish wedding to
seal your wedding vows and honor each other by following Scottish wedding customs like
the wedding scramble, the lang reel, and feet washing.
