From locally-sourced ingredients and organic cuisine to cruelty-free spa products and an acre of beautiful natural gardens, The Royal Crescent Hotel & Spa offers an idyllic setting for a green wedding, honeymoon or romantic retreat.

Located in the heart of the 250-year-old Grade I listed Royal Crescent in the romantic city of Bath, the Hotel offers a delicious fine-dining menu comprised of locally-sourced ingredients, including herbs grown in its very own garden. The team can also create a vegan wedding breakfast menu and even has contacts at a Somerset vineyard, so you can toast your nuptials guilt-free. What's more, the Hotel boasts an acre of natural, secluded gardens, including the exquisite Wedding Garden featuring bountiful roses and lavender, which provide food for all sorts of wildlife including three rescue hedgehogs Beatrix, Jane and Daphne.

Other environmentally-conscious initiatives include the use of traditional room keys on leather fobs, rather than disposable plastic ones. And toiletries are provided by Noble Isle, whose products are vegan, cruelty-free, environmentally-friendly and presented in recyclable packaging.

All weddings at The Royal Crescent Hotel are bespoke and the team takes great delight in helping anyone who wants to celebrate their wedding in a sustainable way, connecting you with reputable local suppliers with this ethos at their core.

Married to your surname? 26% of women are planning on keeping theirs

Lots of people are ditching traditions when it comes to modern weddings and marriage - one of which quickly losing favour is the tradition of taking your partner's surname. In a recent survey carried out by Pandora UK, almost nine in ten (88%) women said they think that attitudes to married names are changing in 2026 ¹. When asked, over a quarter (26%) of unmarried women said they'd keep their last name if they got married, whilst less than half (45%) said they'd take their partner's name. This is indicative of the shift in opinion in recent years, as when married women were asked, only a sixth (17%) of women said they kept their maiden names when they got married, whilst the majority (78%) took their partner's surname, with just 4% choosing to double-barrel their last name with their significant other.
