February Wedding

A great venue with such a wonderful team who made the wedding a success! Gardens were stunning for photos and it was great because the castle and gardens were quiet!
Would definitely recommend getting married at the castle!

Avoid this venue

The wedding and events manager left suddenly and since she has left, the castle has gone down hill. No one knows what the other is doing, no one replies to emails or calls, The tea room staff are rude. Weddings have exlusive use and a member of staff have booked other parties in the castle at the same time. Toilets are awful.

Perfect wedding

We had a fabulous wedding day at Whitstable Castle. Everything went very smoothly and our wedding coordinator Tiffany was brilliant. The food was also lovely.

Outstanding location, service and overall experience

If you are planning to get married in the area, I strongly recommend Whitstable Castle. Not only is the setting beautiful, but the whole experience of planning and the day itself was just so effortless and stress-free. Every step of the wedding was supported so well. We had really helpful guidance and support throughout the planning process. It literally felt like everything was just being organised for us and all we had to do was turn up. Prior to the wedding itself, the castle hosted several wedding fayre type days, where we could select our florist (I recommend Wild Daisy) and talk to various vendors. It made the whole process very easy. The wedding day itself was a dream. The staff are so helpful and always on hand. The food was also excellent. All in all, a fantastic experience and excellent value. This has proven that getting married in a castle is very achievable and well worth doing. You will not regret it.

Great wedding experience at a lovely venue .

We chose Whitstable Castle for our wedding venue as the town and venue are places with special memories for us. The process of booking the day was very straightforward and stress-free and our wedding planner Tiffany was friendly and accomodating to our needs.

The venue itself is picturesque and really lends itself to wedding photos as it has a water fountain, flower gardens, gazebo, etc. as well as the actual castle (which is small in terms of Castle size but very beautiful).

On the day, the staff were attentive and ensured everything went smoothly. Pricing for what we had was very competitive.

Highly recommended.

Perfect day!

Our Twilight package wedding was simply beautiful. So relaxed. Food, wine and music just perfect. Tiffany, our wedding planner, was an absolute star. And such good value. We would absolutely recommend this beautiful venue and wonderful team.

Absolutely beautiful!

Tiffany and the team made our day the most beautiful ever! With diffulties of planning a wedding during lockdowns and furloughed staff, Tiffany kept us informed every step of the way. Along with advise and planning. We wanted a small intimate and relaxed wedding. Tiffany was a fountain of knowledge and we had every faith in her. It was an amazing and beautiful day! I want to do it again. Wonderful staff and guests were very happy with the food and drinks and overall atmosphere. Keeping the integrity of this beautiful venue.
