Wedding in
Dorset
Pick a venue first. Photographers, planners, florists slot around it. We do the shortlisting for you.
Dorset is where the Jurassic Coast lives, with dramatic cliffs that display hundreds of millions of years of geology. The Chesil Beach is eight miles of pebbles sheltering a lagoon. The towns are picturesque without trying. The light bounces off chalk cliffs in a way that makes photographers stop mid-conversation.
Weddings favour May and September when the weather is warm and stable. June through August are warm but crowded. The cliff-top estates offer dramatic views. The beaches provide golden backdrops. The restaurants are excellent. The surrounding regions offer day-trip alternatives. The light in June lasts until 10 p.m.
