Clevedon Pier can now be used as a wedding venue.

The Grade I-listed attraction has been awarded a venue licence and will host its first ceremony in April.

Ruth Charles, the pier’s visitor experience co-ordinator, said: “We had quite a few enquiries last year which we are now following up and I’m extremely confident that once word gets out, especially for those wanting an intimate and unique setting – we’ve certainly got that in spades.”

Ceremonies will be held in the Porthole Room while bookings will also include use of the viewing deck and canopy with seating for up to 20 people.
