This cost includes theatre light and sound on stage and use of our dressing rooms before the ceremony. Our recently renovated event space, Stage Left, offers a flexible space for your ceremony and reception and costs from £1500. This includes a private bar and use of our sound and light system; perfect for dancing and celebrating your marriage. Stage left can comfortably seat 100 people, in banquet style. Theatre takeover – you can hire the whole venue from just £2000; the stage and auditorium, the bar and Stage Left event space. Add a theatrical twist to your ceremony on stage, then welcome drinks can be served in the bar with Stage Left set up for the reception. Additional spaces mean we can offer private dressing rooms and even a children’s playroom. If you have your ceremony booked elsewhere and are just looking for a reception venue, we can help there too. Hire Stage Left from 4pm for an evening reception from just £700. We can cater for weddings for up to 100 people and offer a selection of delicious home-cooked buffet options to suit your budget and starting from just £10 per person.

Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Melody Northey
I would love to meet you and discuss your exciting plans and how we can help you to create the wedding of your dreams. Whilst we can create a package where everything is included, you can also choose to 'DIY' and just have venue hire. All of our weddings are bespoke and I personally love seeing a couple's plans come together and knowing that we have been part of their special day.

Wedding: October

Totally impressed
Attended a wedding for the first time at the theatre last weekend - we arrived intrigued and we were totally impressed! Welcoming, friendly and efficient staff, the day ran super smoothly in such a unique setting. Bravo to them for seeing the potential for having ceremonies in the theatre itself and creating the extra space for the reception and partying. Bravo 👏🏼💕

Happy couple married in July
July 2023
Perfect day in a wonderful venue
We were lucky enough to have both our wedding reception and evening party at the Palace Theatre. Melody the Wedding Coordinator was absolutely fantastic, and we were given flexibility to design food menus, use the theatre spaces as we needed, and decorate to personalise our day. The bridal party used the theatre dressing rooms to get ready in the morning too. Stage left was the perfect place for our party with a live band and a hog roast which all worked really well.

Describe the best wedding that happened at Palace Theatre Paignton?

We have loved aspects from different weddings - the attention to detail and handmade table decorations, the way couples have been inspired by the theatre and created their own wedding 'show', the celebrant performing the ceremony as Cinderella's fairy godmother, the groom disappearing in a puff of green smoke and being replaced by a frog prince (don't worry, he returned!) to name but a few!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Make your wedding a celebration of you! Personal touches are the best. Also, don't sweat the small stuff and remember to take a step back to enjoy it!

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

As all of our weddings are bespoke - every aspect has been chosen personally by the couple themselves, so everything is personal to them.
