St Fagans Museum Wedding

Alun and Aimee decided to get married in St Fagans museum in Cardiff on a very sunny August afternoon.


Being that they live in Aberystwyth, surrounded by some of Wales’ most stunning beach and countryside landscapes, it was a surprise at first to learn they had chosen to come all the way to Cardiff to get married.


That is of course till you see where they got to say their vows and held their wedding party. St Fagans Museum in Cardiff not only offers those who want to soak up Welsh Heritage, history ad culture a fun and educational day out, it offers some of the most beautiful scenes imaginable to get married in.

If you were contemplating having your own wedding here, then the Italian Gardens alone should be enough to have you (and most definitely your photographer) foaming at the mouth with excitement. Honestly this place is so beautiful I felt like it was wedding photography on easy mode when I went there. You literally cannot take a bad photo there!



The gardens themselves offer genuine authenticity towards what a typical Italian garden would look like.

All in all it was a wonderful day for Alun and Aimee and their family and friends to enjoy. The only downside to the day and this location was a lot of walking from one place to another in the searing heat of summer, but when you’re presented with the beautiful scenery that the museum has to offer, it is difficult not to enjoy walking around the famous grounds of St Fagans. And if you’re quick enough to ask, there are usually buggies available to transport wedding guests to the ceremony venue from the main entrance to the museum.

This wedding was a great celebration of love, coupled with a gorgeous venue that not only added to the romance but offered the best of all of Wales under one (I would say roof but we were outside) place!
