RNLI College offers the perfect setting for memorable weddings

Overlooking Holes Bay, the RNLI College is a bright and modern venue with a fabulous waterfront setting on the edge of Poole Harbour. Licensed for ceremonies, couples have a choice of attractive rooms with bay views.

The ground-floor Waterfront Suite has direct access to the sea terrace right by the water’s edge – great for post-vows drinks. With the RNLI lifeboats moored on the pontoons, it’s the perfect backdrop for standout photos. The suite can accommodate up to 150 peoples for wedding breakfasts and an extra 50 in the evenings. For more intimate affairs, the Harbour View Suite provides a romantic setting for celebrations.

Those who book the venue for their special day will be offered a complimentary wedding-night stay in a harbour view bedroom. We love that every £1 spent here goes towards saving lives at sea.
