If you fancy making a grand entrance without the faff of horse-drawn carriages, The Perch in Oxford has you covered, because yes, you can actually arrive at your wedding by boat. This riverside gem mixes laid-back charm with a healthy dose of fairytale fantasy, making it the perfect spot for couples who want gorgeous scenery, great vibes, and just a hint of “did that really just happen?” as they glide up to say “I do.”
Located on the edge of Port Meadow in Binsey, just minutes from Oxford city centre, The Perch is one of the most charming and characterful wedding venues in Oxfordshire. With a history stretching back centuries and a unique riverside setting beside the Thames (locally known as the Isis), The Perch combines timeless atmosphere, excellent food and drink, and flexible spaces for weddings of all sizes.
A Unique Riverside Setting
The Perch’s location beside Port Meadow gives couples a true English garden and river backdrop for their reception. It’s just a short stroll from Oxford’s historic centre, yet feels wonderfully secluded and relaxed. Many couples also take advantage of champagne boat arrivals — arriving along the river for an unforgettable entrance.

We met Jonny at our friend’s wedding, where he was the photographer. His energy was great and when we saw their wedding photos, we knew that we had to hire him for our wedding too! He was everything we wanted from our wedding photographer and so much more. Hire him – you won’t regret it!

We were looking for reportage style photography and Jonny nailed it. He slotted into the background with ease which made everyone comfortable in front of the camera – you wouldn’t know he was there most of the time. Would absolutely recommend Jonny to anyone!
