Dudley - Cheap Wedding Venue

I recently photographed a wedding in the U.K. for a family member, and they were on an extrememly tight budget. They live in Wolverhampton and were looking to go to the registry office to get married and have some family and friends along.

They were really unhappy with how the registry office looked and felt in Wolves so they started looking around at other registry offices to find one that was a little nicer.

As it turns out, the Dudley Registry office is in a gorgeous old manor house that is situated on the grounds of an old priory. The building is an immense, beautiful old gothic structure with a fantastic flower garden that is incredibly well maintained.

Just a few meters away from the office on the same grounds stand the ruins of an old priory. As a photographer I have to tell you that this was one of the most beautiful places I have ever photographed a wedding, and I have photographed MANY places.

The best part is that it only cost 50 pounds to get married there! They even have a webcam so that friends and family that are far away can tune in on the internet and see the ceremony. I will post links to some of the pictures so you can see what I mean.
