Abingdon has many good venues and other related services for weddings. The Chamber of Commerce is holding the first ever Market Place Wedding Fair today, and there were quite a few stalls.

You could try wedding cake from Waitrose…

Get second hand wedding dresses and gowns and suits from Cancer Research. Abingdon also has a couple of first hand wedding dress retailers.

Paul Viney, from West St helen Street, was there with examples of his wedding photographs.

Then there was the Oxford Saxtet who play weddings – thanks to Greg from Blue Door – the Fixed Fee Estate Agent – who sponsored them.

The Friends of Abingdon were also there with information about their reasonably priced and wonderful venue – The Abbey Buildings. Of course there are many Abingdon venues : the Guildhall, old part recently reburbished, and Coseners House, and Preston Road Community Centre (which certainly deserves a plug as I’m on the committee there).
