10 suppliers publishing a price for the UK

What a wedding costs in the UK, from published supplier prices

British suppliers are the ones most likely to print a figure, and this record is in pounds because a price index is only honest in one currency. The published entry prices here run from a photo booth at a couple of hundred pounds to a large marquee in five figures, and the spread is the point: these are different categories, not competing quotes.

Suppliers publishing a price for the UK

Coverage of the UK is evidenced by the supplier's own priced page at the linked URL, checked on the date shown, never by a claim to cover the country. Prices are advertised entry figures in the currency the supplier charges in; the statutory ceremony fees that sit beside them are set by the registration service and not by any supplier.

What moves a British wedding bill

Saturday costs more than any other day, and the celebrant prices in this record show it plainly: the same person charges one figure Sunday to Friday and a higher one on Saturday.

Catering is quoted per head, so the guest list is the single biggest lever an organiser controls. Every ten guests you remove is ten times the per-head figure.

The statutory ceremony fees are set by the registration service, not by a supplier, and are the one line on the bill nobody can negotiate.

London figures sit above the rest of the country in both categories where this record holds a London supplier and a national one, which is why the photographer and catering entries name the city they were priced in.
