About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2020

Last update: March 2024

Wickham Estate is a unique wedding venue set amongst a beautiful 40-acre vineyard. Specially renovated to hold weddings, the grounds hold an outdoor and indoor ceremony space, quaint courtyard, main barn, on-site accommodation and, not to mention the many beautiful spots perfect for photos.


Licensed For Ceremonies

The 2 spectacular ceremony areas are;
The Gazebo- the rustic hut that sits right next to the vines. The wow factor when it comes to outdoor weddings. With a long aisle to make your entrance, it certainly will be a ceremony to remember.
The Vine Room- a naturally beautiful setting with large floor-to-ceiling windows that showcase the stunning vines. Large halo chandeliers and the neutral colour palette make this room so special and intimate.


The Perfect Venue

The main barn, called The Old Winery, was remodelled to hold your wedding breakfast and evening reception. With original wooden beams, chandeliers made of vintage crystal cut wine glasses, fairy lights and 10ft oak doors that make a grand entrance and open out into the adjoining courtyard.
The courtyard is the perfect place to enjoy sipping our very own premium English sparkling wine or perhaps a beer or glass of Pimms in the Summer sunshine.

The vineyard has a relaxed, romantic atmosphere that flows beautifully through the day and is the perfect combination of outside and inside. Enjoy the amazing sunsets over the vines and stay cosy and warm in the Old Winery. Whatever your dream wedding is, Wickham Estate can bring that to life. With our friendly and dedicated team of coordinators to help you through the planning process and on your special day itself.


Facilities and Capacity

Wickham Estate caters for up to 85 guests for the ceremony and wedding breakfast and up to 150 evening receptions. We are also a wheelchair-friendly site.


Services Offered

Wickham Estate's friendly and experienced team will work with you to help create the wedding day of your dreams. Once booked, you will also receive access to our online wedding portal, which holds a lot of helpful wedding planning information, all invoices, email correspondence and appointments. Booked couples also get exclusive dates to visit the venue leading up to their big day to bring friends, family, and suppliers or even use the time to measure and plan out their wedding day.

I would pick Wickham estate over and over again

We got married in October. My favourite time of year the vines were beautiful colours. From the moment our journey began the girls at Wickham Estate have made every aspect of our wedding special.
The grounds are so beautiful and so well kept all year round. The wine is delicious like no other we have had before. The cottage is a special touch to stay in and the bridal prep room is a high light. The venue is a must see if it is an option for anyone’s wedding.
The staff are truly wonderful people and want everyone to have the best day. Abbie and Lucy made me feel so relaxed and assisted the day smoothly with personal touches.
Pay attention to the detail around the vineyard such as the beautiful lights. Massive love to the catering and Laurel designs who made our wedding perfect! In any life time I would do it all again exactly the same.

The perfect day!

We had the perfect day - the setting was beautiful and the staff were incredible - Abbie was excellent and she ensured the day ran really smoothly. The canapés and main meal food were delicious and everyone we spoke to complimented the food, the wine and the venue - they all had such a great time. We loved the flow of the day through the venue and we were lucky with the weather which meant we could make good use of the vineyard and centre outdoor area for some beautiful photos. The staff were so helpful in moving our decorations between rooms for us so we maximised their use and we were also impressed with how they worked with the DJ and Amy’s father’s band to make the evening reception so much fun. We can’t thank you enough for making our day so special.

Best venue & team - faultless!! 5*

The ladies over at Wickham Estate have been incredible from day 1 of booking the venue with Sam right through to the wedding day.
We viewed twice before booking and didn’t regret it! Communication was readily and the team always available to help with any queries or questions. They gave us help / inspiration if we asked, suggest what has and hasn’t worked previously, and what options we had. We had the most epic wedding day, better than we ever could have imagined (and hotter too) Everything was so smooth & seamless. Dare I say it wedding planning with you all was so easy – I don’t know how people get stressed. Your venue is stunning and getting married out amongst the vines was beautiful. I couldn’t recommend the ladies and this venue highly enough!!

Amazing Wedding Day

Absolutely incredible day, from start to finish Abbie & Lucy were always on hand guiding us throughout the day ensuring we all knew what was happening. Venue was stunning, staff were excellent. Fantastic stay in the house. Brilliant facilities couldn't have wished or hoped for anything more for our special day especially walking back up the aisle confetti being thrown & Abbie waiting for us at the top with a drink!! Thank you all. Mr & Mrs Worth

Second to None.

From initial viewing to the wedding day itself Three Chiors provided the most incredible service, Grace and Lois were both there to aid with all our queries and worries. The wedding day itself was perfect, the team were extremely flexible, nothing was too much.
We cannot recommend Three Chiors enough; the venue is beautiful, offers great value for money, the catering is lovely, and the wine is absolutely delicious.

Amazing day

We had the most amazing experience at Three Choirs Vineyard for our wedding day! From the venue itself which is absolutely stunning, to the efficiency of the staff, to the gorgeous accommodation onsite. We've had so many positive comments from our guests about how beautiful the venue was as we were lucky enough to avoid the rain to have our ceremony outside. I would recommend using the house onsite for the bridal prep room especially, but also to stay for the night. Although it's a little bit extra to pay, it's so worth it. We even managed to walk around the vineyard the following morning before we checked out. Overall the day was incredible and ran so so smoothly. Thank you Three Choirs ❤️

Beautiful venue and brilliant staff

We recently got married at Three Choirs Vineyard and it was incredible. The venue is beautiful and unique. Our wedding co-ordinator Grace and the manager Samantha are brilliant, they were so helpful and friendly. Everything was seamless and so professional. Exquisite Catering did an amazing job, everyone spoke so highly of the food.

The Perfect Wedding

Our experience at three choirs was incredible. Sam and Grace were so friendly and reassuring in the stressful times in planning, and on the day keeping things flowing and in line. We highly recommend the gorgeous venue and the wine itself for the day. It was the perfect combination with the food from Exquisite Catering team provided by Three choirs. The accommodation on site and the bridal suite was well equipped with what we needed and in perfect condition. You are guaranteed to have the wedding of your dreams at this venue and the staff make that happen. Even though we had to postpone our perfect day by an extra year and have a wedding still with restrictions in place, the Girls were quick to update us on what was happening and provide ideas to make it work. We cant thank Three Choirs enough for giving us a day we will remember for the rest of our lives.

Truly magical, wouldn’t have changed a thing! And the staff and venue is perfect!!


From the minute we came and viewed the venue we knew instantly it was the one. Having a summer wedding and also lots of kids in the family, it was so important to us to have a nice outdoor area. The ceremony area is so picturesque, it was exactly what we were looking for. Without a doubt though, the courtyard was the best area. Having that outdoor area to hold the drinks reception, set up kids activities and seating in the sun and shade simply made the day, as many of our guests also agreed. It is the perfect size, just big enough to not feel overcrowded, but not small enough people felt cramped.The wedding breakfast area was perfectly planned out so everybody could see the top table and also hear the speeches! And when the tables were cleared in the evening the dance floor was the perfect size and right by the bar which was ideal.The venue was perfectly clean and amazingly decorated and it has enough parking for everyone that can be left overnight.Not one person could fault the food either, the portions were more than enough and all delicious! Drinks were very reasonably priced and we and all the guests too never had an empty hand. The on site house was a blessing also. Having an area for people to go and get a quiet minute if needed for a tea or coffee and also for the all the bridesmaids to get ready in the morning took so much stress off them and maybe their preparation so so much easier!

I honestly couldn’t fault the place at all.From the minute we began planning the staff couldn’t have been more helpful and tailored to our every need. In particular Lucy! She was absolutely incredible! Every single thing we needed or wanted she went above an beyond to do for us! Even on the day with specific needs, and last minute changes she made them happen and ultimately made our day so perfect and exactly how we wanted so we can’t thank her enough!

All in all, we couldn’t have had a better day and the venue and staff were a massive part of that!

Beautiful wedding venue

We had our wedding here in June 2023. It was perfect. The venue is beautiful. The wine is outstanding. The food was delicious. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, and were incredibly helpful both in the lead up to the wedding and on the big day itself. Nothing was too much trouble for them. We had a couple of wheelchair users attending the wedding and the venue is completely accessible. We would absolutely recommend Wickham Estate - it's a fantastic place to have a wedding. Wish we could do it all over again!

Fantastic Venue & Experience

From start to finish the events team were so helpful, quick on emails and always happy to help. Our wedding day was seamless, the staff were always on hand when required. The girls are so friendly and really added a lovely calming vibe on the day. The venue speaks for itself and requires very minimal dress up. The food was also delicious, nice sized positions with excellent presentation. Can’t thank the team enough for our beautiful day.

Best wedding venue in Hampshire!

We booked Wickham Estate for our wedding and 6 short months later we got married. Lois definitely made that short time frame possible, sensational organisational skills and kind demeanour making it stress free. We weren’t sure what we wanted for our wedding venue but when we saw the vineyard we knew it ticked all boxes. We wanted to make sure all of our guests were catered to with accommodation on site for our elderly family, no commute between ceremony and venue and a beautiful backdrop. We could not ask for more from what the venue offers and the incredible attention to detail from Lois. The support the entire way through was outstanding and I know without Lois I would have not been a stress free bride. Thank you so much for all your support the entire way through, we had the best day ever.

Perfect Venue

Where to begin with why I'd recommend them?! From the very first enquiry, all contacts were swift, clear, friendly yet professional. They worked around difficult time schedules as my husband isn't from UK so we had limited availability to visit together etc. When covid hit, and our wedding was cancelled twice, they supported us wonderfully, keeping in touch, keeping our spirits up whilst also keeping us very uptodate with what rules etc meant. Due to visa restrictions, we had to get married in a certain time frame, and they made this happen for us, which I can never thank them enough for. The venue itself is gorgeous. It's beautiful without being ostentatious, elegant but comfortable. We had time to come in and decorate, and were guided through the day itself by Grace who is just awesome! If I could do it all over again, I would pick that venue every time.
