The Rivercatcher Wedding Showcase
For a few weekends each year, Rivercatcher, amongst the most unique wedding venues in North Wales, can be yours to celebrate your big day.
Before coming for a walkaround and meeting the team and to help get a feel for a Rivercatcher wedding, we styled and dressed Rivercatcher, invited some special guests and captured it all on film, allowing you to explore our ceremony spaces and get to know what a Rivercatcher wedding is all about.

Our Wedding Showcase
Stylized to compliment both our oak gazebo and indoor lodge licensed ceremony paces, both set against the picturesque backdrop of the River Dee and the Berwyn Mountains. We’ll walk you through the day so you can experience it for yourself. Rivercatcher becomes the pinnacle of unique wedding venues North Wales
The Lodge – Photo shoots and Canapes
Starting at The Lodge, our indoor ceremony space, guests were able to look through some amazing jewellery from Sara Louise Jewellery to match the Boho Style photo shoot that was going on with our model Grace, Heledd Roberts our photographer was on hand all day to take questions and show off some of her work. And just for temptations sake Outside Catering used our indoor catering kitchen to service up some wonderful canapés to sample.
Lagom Log Cabin – Bridal hair and makeup
Taking a stroll down to Lagom, one of our single bedroom (sleeps 2) you would have found Lindsey and Cathryn, hair and makeup bridal stylists for our photoshoot. On the day they created a subtle and flattering bridal look for our foraging theme. Exploring Lagom would have been treated to the luxury open plan living space complete with log burner and floor to ceiling apex glass windows overlooking the Berwyn Mountains and taken a sneak peek at the romantic 2 person outdoor hot tub.
The Tipi – A Wedding Reception to remember
A short walk away, was our wedding reception Tipi, a hub of activity on the day. The Silk Loft Wedding Gowns were exhibiting some of their designs alongside floral arrangements from Tulipa Flowers and Rosehip and Wren. The Function Hub and Cestrian bars were on hand to discuss any queries about catering and hand out some treats and serve drinks. The icing on top of the cake, Hayley’s Piped Dreams were there to tickle your fancy with samples of their delicious wedding cakes.
The Tipi itself was illuminated with fairy lights creating a magical and intimate feeling to the day and offered a firepit, surrounded by a relaxed seating area and dance floor for the big party.
Back to the Gazebo – Outdoor Ceremony
Coming out of the Tipi and walking along the riverbank brings you to our outdoor oak Gazebo ceremony space, offering couples the chance to get to know our breath-taking scenery and take it all in. The oak Gazebo was a key feature of the day, bringing together the natural style of our bridal shoot with the stunning scenery of the North Wales countryside. The great thing about a wedding at Rivercatcher is the flexibility to plan for an outdoor gazebo wedding while having the equally beautiful indoor option of the Lodge.
Onto our accommodation which makes Rivercatcher ones of the most unique wedding venues in North Wales.
Taking in some stunning group accommodation in Cilan Farmhouse – Sleeps 10
Out of the Gazebo and around the corner was Cilan Farmhouse, one of our private five-star lodges, open to explore. The farmhouse sleeps up to 10 people over 5 en-suite bedrooms, 2 lounges, dining and breakfast room and comes equipped with a relaxing 6 person outdoor hot tub and private garden to treat guests to a secluded and memorable weekend.
