About St Michael's Manor Hotel

If you're looking for a traditional, countryside wedding venue in Hertfordshire , we think you'll love St Michael's Manor Hotel. Located close to the fashionable town of St. Albans , this stunning townhouse is ideally located from those travelling a little further afield, and as well as gorgeous, boutique bedrooms on site, is well within reach of surroundings for guests. As well as being a beautiful, historic building, the hotel is also surrounded by five acres of private English gardens and its own lake which add to the exclusivity feel of the place. So even though you're close to the buzz of St Albans, you'll feel a million miles away. And, who wouldn't want their own lake for the wedding photos? Come winter or summer, it's an idyllic backdrop for the big day . The team at St Michael's Manor Hotel have been hosting weddings for over 50 years and so as well as being able to pull off any special event without a hitch. Flexibility is our speciality , and we are more than happy to create a bespoke day for you. For your ceremony, you could tie the knot in the wood panelled Oak Lounge , a handsome, historic space decked out with gold-framed oil paintings, or by contrast, opt for the Orangery which is a gorgeous choice in the summer as the space is flooded with natural light . Drinks receptions can take place in the hotel bar or formal lounge, or if the weather's nice bring your guests out onto the lawns or even the atmospheric summerhouse jetty , which sits out over the lake. After a tipple or two, it's time for the wedding breakfast which can be served in the smart Cedar Suite , Orangery or again, the Oak Lounge , depending on whether you're planning an intimate affair or a larger party . Catering is provided in house and the team are more than happy to chat through the plethora of options with you to ensure everything is to your taste.

We had our wedding at St Michael's Manor Hotel and it was just amazing! We opted for the private hire and it was amazing to have the hotel to ourselves and that guests were able to stay over in fabulous rooms! Everything ran smoothly on the day, the staff were very attentive, the food was lovely and we used many of their recommended suppliers who were amazing. A big shout out to Christin

From the moment we walked in for our first viewing, St Michael's Manor was amazing and we knew it was the place we wanted to get married. St Michael's Manor felt so special and that continued right through to the wedding day itself. The venue is absolutely stunning. We got married on the jetty overlooking the water and it was just magical. The gardens are gorgeous and the orangery is such a lovely space for the wedding breakfast and reception. Huge shout out to Christina, our wedding coordinator, who was absolutely amazing from day one. Always so quick to respond to emails, nothing was ever too much trouble, and she made us feel completely looked after. On the day itself everything was coordinated to perfection and we could just relax and enjoy ourselves knowing she had it all under control. All the staff were so warm and lovely. We were looked after so well. Loads of our guests commented on how friendly everyone was. And the food was incredible, genuinely some of the best wedding food we’ve ever had. We can’t recommend this place highly e

We recently held our wedding at St Michael’s Manor, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! From start to finish, the entire team went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect. A special shoutout to Mohammed, who was incredibly attentive and supportive throughout the entire day. Even though we were running behind schedule, he calmly guided us through each step, ensuring everything flowed seamlessly and stress-free. His professionalism and kindness. We also want to give a huge thank you to the chef, who quite literally saved the day when our wedding cake cracked during transport to the venue. With incredible skill and care, they managed to repair it so beautifully that no one could tell there had ever been an issue. We are forever grateful! To the events team and all the wonderful staff, thank you for your hard work, warmth, and dedication. W

We had the most perfect wedding at St Michael’s Manor in September 2024. The venue is beautiful with amazing grounds and a lake that our guests loved walking around. The rooms at the hotel were so spacious and comfortable and all our guests who stayed at the hotel commented on how fantastic they were. The team at St Michael’s Manor were so friendly and professional both in helping to plan, and ensuring our Wedding day ran exactly as we had wanted. The food for the Canapés, Wedding Breakfast and Evening meal was nothing short of sensational and the setup and turnaround of the hotel for the Ceremony, Wedding Breakfast, and Evening party was seamless. Would definitely recommend St Michael’s Manor to anyone looking for a venue to host your Ceremony, Wedding Breakfast and Evening party in the same place, that really has th

I went to a wedding here last summer (2001)it was a beautiful event, marriage in the conservatory, pics in the lovely grounds with old ccedars and a lake, then a meal in the restaurant (a very nice sit down buffet) only drawback is the venue closes at around 6 unless you are staying there. We went on to a party in a local St Albans pub.
