Residents are being invited to consider St John's House and The Judges' House in Warwick as venues to celebrate their special day.

Having recently been refurbished, the two venues are now available for bookings from now until 2025.

Each site has multiple room options to choose from to ensure you find the most suitable location for celebrating your special day.  

In St. John's House, two wood-panelled rooms are now available for ceremonies to take place, one with a capacity of 40 people, and the other slightly smaller with a capacity of eight people for a more intimate occasion.

Both rooms are situated on the ground floor featuring grand fireplaces, elegant chandeliers, large windows to let in plenty of light, and dark wood or warm oak panelling on the walls. The rooms both have disabled access and are within a short walking distance of St Nicholas car park, which has direct access to gardens for outdoor photographs as well as other key facilities.  

The house itself is a Jacobean mansion that was built between 1667 and 1670, and the site is greatly steeped in history.

From 1154 to the present day, it has been a Medieval hospital, a family house, a series of private schools, a military record office, and, after being bought by Warwickshire County Council in 1959, opened in 1961 as the museum it's become known as today.

The Georgian Grade II-listed Judges' House, built between 1814 and 1816, is nestled in the heart of Warwick next to the original crown court and offers an unparalleled combination of character and capacity for your joyous occasion.

It features the Regency decorated Judges' Drawing Room and Judges' Dining Room on the first floor, and the High Sheriff's Office on the ground floor which has disabled access.

All the rooms have different character and décor options with a capacity of between 45-100 people.

Cllr Yousef Dahmash, portfolio holder for customer and transformation, said: "St. John's House and The Judges' House are both excellent ceremony venues that are greatly steeped in history, and just a couple of great examples of the many licensed ceremony venues we have available across Warwickshire.

"Our ceremony venues also offer remarkable versatility, capable of hosting intimate celebrations as well as larger ones for those who would like friends and family to share their special occasion. 

"Our Registration Services team continue to deliver unforgettable ceremony experiences that will be cherished for a lifetime, and we remain committed to providing a wide range of exceptional venues across Warwickshire to ensure people can continue to celebrate life's most extraordinary moments here with joy and satisfaction."
