Barefoot Beach Weddings

Private Beach Wedding Venue in Cornwall at the "King of The Beach" location voted Best UK Beach 2024 by The Time/Sunday Times

Can you imagine saying "I do" with your toes in the sand on a pristine Cornish beach? If so, the Barefoot Beach Weddings Team at Beach Pad's provide the rare ability to get married at a stunning St Ives Bay beachfront venue that may be used exclusively by you and your guests. This iconic Cornish location forms the front cover of the Chris Rea Albulm "King of the Beach" and it lives up to its name! It is where the beach Artist John Miller painted his iconic St Ives Bay beach scenes. Often mistaken as being the Caribbean, the world famous "St. Ives light" that inspired so many artists creates the most amazing azure sea blues and golden sandy backdrop. Your wedding photos will sing!

The venue offers the ability for the bridal party to prepare for the big day with an ocean front as a backdrop. If desired, arrive by walking out across the sand, horseback, beach buggy or even by boat, all are possible at this idylic location. There are so many wonderful options that can be explored to make this part of your day truly memorable and uniquely yours.

You can choose to exchange vows from dawn to dusk on the beach with your chosen celebrant. The venue owns a private section of the beach! A full moon beach wedding with a moonlight beach and sea is truly magical. The beauty of nature is never far away when you choose to get married at the UK's most southerly beach estuary in the centre of St Ives Bay's 6km expanse of golden sand.

Alternatively, hold a more formal wedding service at the beautiful neighbouring Norman Church, only a few minutes away and return back to the beach for photo opportunities after the ceremony.

Celebrations can also be held at this venue and tailoured to your preferences. Thinking beach bbq's or "Hidden Hut" style picnic? Both are great vibes that are particularly popular beach options. We can also organise for a more formal sit down if that is what is preferred. The Barefoot Beach Weddings Team love it when couples suggest out of the ordinary options like a Rum and Crab party. This works brilliantly especially when the picture perfect Cornish Crab and Lobster Fishing Boats sail right by outside the venue whilst wedding guests dine on the fruits of the sea. A Barefoot Beach Wedding at Beach Pad's can be a pescatarians paradise with such delicious local produce and great local chefs to supply and prepare mouthwatering wedding morsels! Equally Surf and Turf is a great option! We love finding out what you have in mind.

At the end of your day making unique lifelong memories you are likely to need to fall straight into bed. Our location offers something that is extremely rare if not unique in Cornwall as it is a venue that also offers our Wedding Groups the ability to exclusively stay at the location as we are able to provide accommodation for up to 20 guests. If necessary it is possible to source other nearby accommodation.

The Barefoot Beach Weddings Team offer you the ability to create a truly unique and bespoke wedding celebration at their iconic and exclusive beachfront location on the St Ives Bay. The location and venue is a match made in heaven for those wanting an intimate, less formal and "elopement" style wedding day.
