About The Prince Of Wales Resort Hotel
The Prince of Wales Hotel in Southport combines Victorian-era character with event spaces designed for wedding days of varying size. The hotel’s wedding brochure describes ornate function suites with high glass ceilings and carved details that can be used for civil ceremonies and receptions; couples can choose among three suites sized to suit an intimate gathering or a larger seated wedding for up to about 300 guests.
Wedding packages are structured around these suites and include access for the entire day, with space for both the ceremony and the celebrations that follow. The hotel holds a licence for civil ceremonies, enabling couples to have their ceremony and reception in one place.
A dedicated events team works with couples on planning and coordination, tailoring package elements to individual preferences and guest numbers. The hotel’s wedding packages also include accommodation arrangements: the newlyweds receive a complimentary upgraded room for their wedding night, and guests can book bedrooms on site, with special rates often part of wedding arrangements.
Ceremony, meal and evening events are all held within the hotel’s function spaces; the brochure notes that suites are configured with details such as private bars and space for evening entertainment.
