The Woods at Oakley is a stylish outdoor wedding venue located in Salisbury, Wiltshire. Here, you can enjoy 12 acres of England's picturesque woodlands and countryside as you celebrate your milestone day. Take shelter under towering oak, ash, and hazel trees as you host a celebration to remember.

Facilities and Capacity

The Woods at Oakley is a blank canvas, allowing you to express your own unique style on your big day. Throughout the trees, you'll find fire pits in cosy areas, with logs that are carefully sourced from fallen trees. Once the festivities have drawn to a close, guests are invited to sleep under the stars in our luxurious bell tents in a private area of the woods and enjoy the beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. There's also a renovated Nissen Hut from World War Two if you'd prefer to stay indoors. The hut is also ideal for the wedding party to use as a get-ready space. The woods are also ideal for a romantic picnic to celebrate your anniversaries.

Services Offered

The team at The Woods at Oakley believes in sustainability and works hard to minimise the effects of their events on the environment. For every wedding they host, a portion of the proceeds will go towards replanting trees. Couples are also invited to plant their own tree to commemorate the event. They're invited to work alongside the on-site sound, lighting, and events hire company to help make their vision a reality. You can also be given recommendations for local catering companies, florists, and musicians.

Look no further for your woodland wedding venue

This venue is absolutely stunning, the photos do not do it justice. The woods are a perfect place for any event, they’re big enough to feel like you’re in the wild and can explore and small enough that you can’t lose anyone! You immediately feel at peace when you arrive, it’s either in the air or in the water but I can assure you that you’ll have the best time in the woods!

This isn’t just a venue though, Lindsay and Charlie were absolutely phenomenal the entire time, not only did they help set up, make the place look amazing, build new benches the day before the ceremony but they made us feel at home which was so important to us, they even helped us find our runaway dog!

We will be forever grateful for them having faith in us to host our wedding festival, in all of its craziness.

If you’re looking for confirmation that this is the right venue for you, then here it is x

Perfect woodlands venue

Literally the perfect venue for us - we couldn't have chosen a better one for us. It's obviously the woods rather than a manicured hotel lawn so don't expect to wear stilettos or similar but Lindsay and Charlie were upfront about this from the start. We booked the airbnb on the premises as well which was a massive help for hair and makeup stuff and also just as a base of operation given we ended up having to do a lot of stuff ourselves (which again was fine and expected).

Lindsay and Charlie are absolutely lovely as well and made the experience as good as it could have been.

We're already planning on going back next year to celebrate our anniversary :)

Magical Woodland Wedding Venue

The Woods at Oakley was the perfect location to host our outdoor wedding. We are nature lovers and really struggled to find a magical setting that would fully embrace the magic and beauty of the countryside, until we found the Woods at Oakley. From the breathtaking bluebells to the oak arbour, the campfire to the little fairy doors on trees, everything about the woods was perfect and you could see the love and care for its conservation from the wonderful owners Lindsay and Charlie. As part of our wedding, we were also able to plant our own tree to add a personal touch, so that we can visit the woods in the future and check in on our little oak tree. We are just so sad that the day has been and gone so quickly, we absolutely loved it and it will always be our special day!

Beautiful woodland venue

After a long and fruitless search, we finally found the woodland setting we were looking for with The Woods at Oakley. Lindsay and Charlie were extremely helpful and welcoming all the way through and came through on every promise they made. It's an absolutely beautiful venue that we would recommend to anyone looking for a woodland wedding.

We could not have found a better venue for our wedding, it was like a dream place.

We had dreamt of the ideal place to get married, it was in a woodland, under luscious trees, surrounded by nature and love ones.
When we found out about the woods at Oakley we couldn’t believe we had found a place so similar to what we had only dreamt for.
Having our wedding there exceeded the dream and the expectations. The place is. Or only beautiful but it has incredible energy, everyone there went out of their ways to make our special day very special. Lindsey and the team made everything easy for us and incredibly beautiful for us and for our family.
We can’t thank them enough not only for helping us have our dream wedding but actually exceeding it.
Thank you very much for everything.
Marta and Martin
