About

Eggington House is a countryside wedding venue in the town of Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire, England. This historic manor house sits on the edge of the lovely, intimate village of Eggington and is surrounded by 35 acres of its own land. First built in 1696, the estate is used as a much-loved family home, giving it an exclusive, intimate atmosphere for couples and their guests to enjoy.

Facilities and Capacity

Eggington House can accommodate wedding receptions of various sizes, from intimate gatherings of 30 to seated dinners of 180 to standing receptions of 300. The venue offers a giant tipi and traditional pole marquee for couples to enjoy a covered celebration on the open fields. You and your guests can also enjoy the lush forest views from the terrace and formal lawn areas. Soon-to-be-weds that prefer a smaller celebration will have three rooms to choose from in the Main House. The dining room, wood-panelled drawing room, and cosy study all feature wood-burning fireplaces and antique decor, making for a welcoming, vintage aesthetic. On the property is a three-bedroomed Coach House that sleeps six overnight guests, along with two beautiful bedrooms located in the Main House.

Services Offered

The onsite team will do their best to make Eggington House the perfect setting for your wedding day. The hire fee gives soon-to-be-weds two and a half days of exclusive access, giving you plenty of time for setup and teardown. The team only books weddings between May and mid-September to ensure couples can enjoy the venue in the best possible weather. They will also connect you with their list of trusted suppliers, from catering to helicopters, to help you complete your nuptial vision.

The Marquee is such a fabulous space.

We cannot thank Suzie and Olivier of Eggington House for sharing their wonderful home with us and being the most perfect hosts on our wedding day. The wedding day itself was perfect and Suzie was so helpful in the run up to the big day. I spent the night before the wedding at the coach house with my children and bridesmaid and got ready there in the morning with my bridal party. All of our guests were in awe of Eggington House and the wonderful grounds, they did not believe (and neither did we) that something like this existed in Bedfordshire. The marquee is such a fabulous space and Suzie really welcomed our ideas and touches. My Grandfather asked if it would be possible for everyone staying at Eggington to have breakfast together the morning after the wedding. Suzie and Olivier cooked up an absolute storm for ten of my family members and made my Grandfather and family feel so welcome and special. I cannot thank Suzie, Olivier and family for making our wedding journey (it really isn't just a day!) absolutely perfect. If you are considering a wedding, event or just a weekend away in Bedfordshire, please pay them a visit. Perfection.
