A growing number of couples are opting for a dramatic entrance at voco Oxford Thames, with the riverside hotel reporting a rise in requests for wedding boat arrivals this summer.
Set on a private stretch of the River Thames, the hotel is one of the few venues in Oxfordshire able to offer a dedicated water entrance. The option has become one of its most exclusive features, increasingly popular with couples seeking a unique and memorable touch for their big day.

Julieanne Boothby, Senior Wedding Co-ordinator at voco Oxford Thames, said:
“Our couples choose us because they want a day that’s both elegant and unexpected. The river access is just one of the ways we help make that happen. However, with limited availability for this highly sought-after feature, early booking is essential for those hoping to make the most of this rare riverside experience.
“Our venue has long been a favourite for couples seeking a blend of heritage charm and contemporary style. But the added appeal of river access is giving guests the opportunity to create a standout moment that’s entirely bespoke to their day.”

The hotel, combining historic character with modern amenities, continues to be a popular choice for weddings across Oxfordshire, with the boat option adding to its reputation as a venue with distinctive charm.
