Licensed wedding venues in Gwynedd

21 venues in Gwynedd hold an in-date approval for civil marriages and civil partnerships on the GOV.UK approved premises list (file dated 17 Oct 2025; expiry dates checked 25 Oct 2026). Gwynedd is a single unitary council in Wales. Anglesey and Conwy are separate councils with their own registration services. The council’s two published sources disagree on the 2026/27 approved premises fee: its Registration Fees 2026/2027 sheet lists £485 Monday to Friday, £535 Saturday, £590 Sunday and £665 bank holidays (booking fee £150), while its March 2026 fees decision gives these as the 2025/26 fees and sets £505, £555, £610 and £690 (booking fee £155) for 2026/27. We quote no single fee, so confirm the figure with the council.
