Whether yours is a big-hearted, budget romcom or an all singing all dancing production, we’d be delighted to host your wedding day. We are a small, much-loved Cotswold venue, nestled in a pretty residential street.

As an organisation whose very purpose is to create a welcome, enjoyable and seamless experience, we are perfectly placed to stage your big day.

"Our wedding was as perfect as we could imagine. The staff were incredible and made us feel so special. We had all the information we needed as well as sharing our ideas and have the theatre make them into reality. We couldn't have wished for more!" - Sarah & Laurence

Facilities and Capacity

Our auditorium provides an intimate yet grand setting for your day. Bare Cotswold stone walls, gallery seating and pillars all underneath the vaulted ceiling and theatre lights – there’s no other space like it. Our venue is customisable and flexible to your vision. Musicians, floral displays and confetti cannons have all graced our stage, or opt for simple and beautiful fairy lights. You can also create an aisle through our theatre seats, or remove them altogether.

The auditorium is fully licensed for civil ceremonies, which can be arranged with the Oxfordshire licensing authorities. Your wedding party will have use of their wheelchair-accessible dressing rooms for pampering and pre-ceremony toasts.

"Our guests absolutely loved the theatre and we’ve heard from so many people how special and unique it was. Having the ceremony on the stage meant that everyone could see us clearly and it felt very intimate despite us having 200 guests." - Katy & Jake

We are delighted to host you for your ceremony and drinks reception before you head off to your reception (we can make suggestions!); or you can make a day of it and hold your reception with us.

We can hold small sit down dinners or buffets, working with your choice of caterers. We have no in-house catering nor a kitchen; however, being well-placed in the heart of Chipping Norton local restaurants and caterers are able to provide hot food.

Our venue is made for entertainment, so whether you want a playlist or a DJ, live band or ceilidh, we can ensure an after party to remember.

• 200 ceremony guests in the auditorium

• 80 for buffet dining

• 60 for sit-down dining

• 150 for drinks & dancing

Services Offered

There is no "standard" Theatre wedding. As we host only a few weddings a year we do not have a set format our couples have to stick to, which means your day is really yours.

Your package includes exclusive use of the venue, as well as our expert sound and lighting technicians to make sure everything goes without a hitch.

The wonderful team behind The Theatre Chipping Norton makes celebrations of love unforgettable. Their ultimate goal is to create a welcoming, enjoyable, and seamless experience for couples and their loved ones.

"Our friends and family were blown away, as were we!" - Alison & Matthew
