Venue type: Country House Description: Located in West Sussex, Wakehurst Place is a beautiful 180 acre country estate and conservation area managed by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.
Within its magnificent grounds is the stunning, Elizabethan Mansion, which is an ideal venue for stylish wedding ceremonies and receptions. The light and airy Gallery and opulent, wood-panelled Dining Room are licensed for both Marriages and Civil Partnerships. The rooms, each with a capacity of 60 for dining, open onto a formal lawn overlooking the Mansion Lake, which presents an outstanding opportunity for both romantic and group photographs. The lawns can be used for drinks receptions on arrival or between ceremony and wedding breakfast, and the venue is licensed for both music and dancing.
All profits from our weddings help raise funds for vital national and international plant conservation programmes, to help prevent climate change and preserve life on earth for future generations.
