About Cornerstone
Cornerstone is a restored Grade II listed venue in the heart of Cardiff - made for weddings with atmosphere. Celebrate with up to 220 guests in the Great Hall, or choose a smaller room for an intimate wedding breakfast that still feels special.

As the in-house caterers, we’ll build a wedding menu around you - from beautifully plated dining to sharing feasts, bowl food or late-night bites - with private tastings to perfect every detail.

TESTIMONIAL
We received so many compliments throughout the day and afterwards about the venue, the stunning food and mostly about the team. We've been trying to think of another reason to book Cornerstone. We're missing it already!
