Weddings at the Town Hall

The Wedding Ceremony Room at Cockermouth Town Hall is the perfect venue for your special day, without the big price tag.

Our Wedding Ceremony Room is situated in Cockermouth’s Grade II Listed Georgian Town Hall building. Originally constructed in 1840, Cockermouth Town Hall started its life as a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel before being converted to a Town Hall in 1934.

Our Ceremony Room can accommodate 54 people. (Including the couple)

This maximum number includes all those attending, the couple, witnesses, children/babies and all other guests, however anyone working, for example officiants, photographers, security, staff employed by the venue and third-party suppliers are not included.

COVID-19. Your booking may be subject to changes/cancellations at short notice.

If you would like to enquiry about booking the Town Hall for your ceremony please contact admin@cockermouth.org or phone 01900 821869.

Please note we are NOT a registry office, you must check our availability first, you will then be given a reference number which will allow you book a registrar to conduct your ceremony, at this stage your enquiry is still provisional.

Then once you book a registrar you must then come straight back to us and we can proceed further to book our room.

You can also hire our venue for renewing your wows or naming ceremonies. (Please note you must book a Cumberland Registrar to perform these type of ceremonies in our building, not a celebrant)
