Stately Home Wedding Venues

What could be more beautiful than a stately home wedding venue? Stately homes are a hugely popular choice for weddings because they provide a beautiful setting and often offer lots of options for accommodation for the wedding party to stay over too.

Choosing a Stately Home Wedding Venue

You’re spoilt for choice when it comes to finding the perfect stately home for your wedding on Hitched, whether you’re thinking “I want a stately home near me,” or you’re happy to travel to find the right wedding venue for your day.

We have over 300 stately home wedding venues across the UK for you to choose from - from large, grand manor houses in the countryside, to more intimate settings that still look incredibly impressive.

Benefits of a Stately Home Wedding Venue

There are so many benefits to booking a stately home wedding venue for your big day. Firstly, the UK has so many lovely stately homes dotted around the country, you’re guaranteed to find the perfect one for you in a convenient location for you and your guests.

Also, stately homes are so beautiful - you won’t have to fork out too much on decor as the rooms are always wonderfully decorated. You can just choose a few select pieces to complement the already gorgeous setting!

Thirdly - but not finally! - a stately home wedding venue is a great choice for making the absolute most of your special day. You can typically get married on site - there tends to be a few choices of ceremony location at most stately home venues in the UK - and then celebrate the rest of your day there so you don’t need to move all your guests between locations. You’ll also have a gorgeous setting for your drinks reception.

Stately home venues often have plenty of accommodation too, so some of your guests can stay over and you’ll get to prolong the celebrations. Post-wedding brunch the next day, anyone?

Frequently asked questions regarding Stately Home

Why celebrate your wedding in a stately home?

Do you want an elegant yet intimate setting for your wedding? Do you want to celebrate in a more rural setting near nature? A stately home may be an ideal option for your wedding. Stately homes tend to have a rustic charm with beautiful archtecture and filled with history, providing a unique venue to get married.

Is there a minimum guest capacity to get married in a stately home?

Some stately homes have minimum capacities for wedding guests, while others are more flexible. It depends entirely on the venue.

Can a civil wedding ceremony be held in a stately home?

If the stately home has a civil ceremony licence, then you can probably get married on premises. It's best to confirm this before booking the venue for your wedding.

Do stately homes offer accommodation for wedding guests?

Stately homes typically offer rooms for guests, but it's possible that only your closest relatives will fit as the accommodation tends to be rather limited in a stately home.

What types of spaces do stately homes offer for weddings?

Most stately homes offer beautiful spaces for different parts of your wedding, such as libraries, tea rooms, even stunning banquet halls. They also tend to include gardens or outdoor spaces to celebrate your wedding.

What is the maximum capacity for stately home weddings?

Stately homes come in many sizes, so the maximum guest capacity will vary. It's best to contact the stately home and let them know how many guests you are expecting to see if they can accommodate everyone.
