Exceptional Events, Timeless Setting.

Greentrees Estate is a countryside venue for exclusive weekend weddings in West Sussex. Our weddings are designed to give you the freedom to create your perfect celebration, with plenty of time to enjoy the process.

Set across 170 acres, the estate offers three licensed ceremony spaces: The Grand Oak Hall and two outdoor settings, The Folly and The Lake. The Grand Oak Hall, with its expansive windows, opens onto the walled garden and extends through to The Rose Arbour, providing stunning views of the lake and grounds - a perfect backdrop for a marquee wedding breakfast.

The estate can accommodate up to 150 guests for both the ceremony and wedding breakfast. On-site, there are eight cottages for up to 20 guests. The Oak Suite, can be found on the other side of the venue, offering a private sanctuary inlcuding a wood-fired hot tub, sauna, and treatment room - perfect for all pre wedding preparations.

The Folly offers a striking outdoor setting with views over the estate, alongside options for an intimate indoor dinner or a pre-wedding outdoor celebration.

For added convenience, our recently opened pub in the charming village of Staplefield - just ten minutes from the estate - offers the option of a relaxed pre-wedding dinner if you prefer not to host an event on-site the night before.

As a dry hire venue, we work closely with a curated list of preferred catering partners, detailed on our website. Each has been carefully chosen to provide a seamless experience, delivering exceptional service and outstanding produce for you and your guests.

Couples are able to bring their own alcohol with no corkage until the end of the wedding breakfast. In the evening, The Stable Bar, fully staffed and stocked by Greentrees Estate, opens for an after-dinner cocktail hour and a carefully curated selection of drinks for guests to enjoy throughout the night.

Our Dream Wedding with Greentrees Estate!

We first met Gemma on New Year’s Day 2022, and from the very moment we knew Greentrees Estate was the one! Sadly, due to unforeseen circumstances, our previous venue had let us down and no matter what other venues we visited, neither of them was a patch on Gemma and Greentrees Estate. For us, the venue itself was important however having a coordinator we could trust was equally as important, and we knew from the moment we met Gemma that she was special!

Throughout the wedding planning process the team at Greentrees Estate kept us informed, and really made sure we were on the right path. No matter what time of day or night, they were always on hand and super eager to help.

On the wedding day itself, we were absolutely blown away by Gemma and Harriet’s dedication and upmost commitment to make sure our day was perfect and that everything ran smoothly - and wow did they do that!! Everything was perfect from the beginning of the day right up until we left. Gemma and Harriett did everything to ensure our day went to plan and really went above and beyond to make sure the day was special. There wasn’t a moment during the day where we felt like we had to think about anything, because all was in hand. All we had to do was enjoy the moment.

We will forever and always recommend Greentrees estate to any couple looking to get married. For us, people are at the core of a wedding venue, and we can honestly say you are in the safest of hands with the team at Greentrees and the venue itself is a dream. We had our ceremony outdoors overlooking the lake, and it felt like a still frame from a movie. We were fortunate enough to have beautiful weather on the day, which just made it more special. We then had our wedding reception in the walled garden which again was absolutely beautiful. It was the perfect setting for everyone to mingle and catch up after the ceremony. We then hosted our wedding breakfast and evening reception in the main hall and it just looked out of this world. We have made memories that will last us a life time and this was only possible with all the support, kindness and dedication from the Greentrees team. We couldn’t have done it without you all, and for this we cannot thank you enough. There really isn’t enough words to say thank you. Lots of Love from, Stacey and Leon xxx

An Incredible Venue - The Hidden Gem of Sussex

I absolutely loved working with Greentrees Estate, I cannot recommend them highly enough for their impeccable service throughout the planning process for my couple. Whatever we needed, they were extremely accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure their wedding day was what they had envisioned. They were flexible with our suppliers which I loved, there are not many venues in the South East of England that allow for dry-hire anymore. The accommodation was outstanding with the most gorgeous views. Highly recommend.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
