Tipis at Whatton House is a magical tipi wedding venue located in Kegworth, Leicestershire. Our beautiful tipis are nestled among the trees and enveloped by beautiful rolling parkland, which gives the perfect backdrop for many stunning wedding photographs.

Facilities and Capacity

Our Venue boasts breathtaking surroundings where to-be-weds can celebrate the wedding of their dreams. Inside the tipis, everything is handcrafted, from the solid wood floors to the rustic bar, wooden tables and chairs. The chill-out area is accompanied by Chesterfield sofas and armchairs, which provide the perfect relaxation area, somewhere to put up your feet after dancing away on the large dance floor.

At night the tipis really come to life, lit up by thousands of fairy lights that create that truly magical and romantic ambience. There are fire pits inside to toast marshmallows and give that warming feeling. Outside string lights illuminate the paths and outside bar area, while lights beneath the surrounding trees provide a truly romantic atmosphere.

The Best Day of Our Lives

We would 1000% recommend using this venue. The setting, the staff, the games, the ceremony, the bar, everything was amazing from start to finish we had so much help and advice through the whole process. We were able to see the venue so many times before our big day, it was such a great help when we were doing our own decorations. If we had any questions, they were only a phone call away, like an old friend. We were made to feel like the only people that mattered in the world. If we could take Jenny and Alex home forever we would, they're amazing. If you're thinking about booking this venue. Do it. The perfect start to a long marriage.

Dream Wedding

Whatton House and Gardens was the only wedding venue I looked at. I knew after seeing it once that I couldn’t get married anywhere else.

It is absolutely stunning, with little decor needed due to its natural and rustic feel. It is the perfect relaxed atmosphere.

The team were so helpful and made sure the day ran perfectly. The catering team and bar team were also fantastic.

One selling point is that we also could set up the day before which saves any rushing around on the morning of the wedding.

We truly had the best day, and I would recommend this venue to anyone.
