RRS Discovery
Turn your wedding into a truly memorable event by hiring Royal Research Ship Discovery. This magnificent ship, built in 1901 for the British National Antarctic Expedition, offers a stunning and inspirational venue. Berthed in her own purpose-built dock, Discovery is of international significance and offers one of the most romantic and special venues for you to tie the knot.
Wedding ceremonies, either religious or civil, take place on Discovery's teak-panelled bridge, the main deck or in the wardroom where the bride, groom and guests can relax and soak up the atmosphere of this magnificent vessel. The stunning riverside location and the backdrop of the ship will also guarantee one of the most individual wedding albums ever.
The lavish mahogany Wardroom once used by Captain Scott is available for wedding breakfasts, lunches and dinners for parties of up to 14 guests. Larger receptions can be held next door at Discovery Point, a modern, purpose-built facility.
Whichever option you choose, the Discovery Events Team will provide a smooth and professional service liaising with you every step of the way to ensure your day is one you will never forget.
