About Stowe House

Stowe House is a wedding venue located in Buckinghamshire, England. This setting is an 18th Century Ducal Palace and is unique in its grandeur and style. Once you step inside Stowe House, you will not have to think about finding the perfect setting for your wedding—you will have found it. Facilities and Capacity Holding no more than 30 weddings per year, the individuality and elegance of Stowe House will provide the perfect setting you deserve on the most special day of your life. Most of the grounds were designed by Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown, and, to this day, they cement Stowe as the first and finest landscaped gardens in England. The team offers a choice of breath-taking State Rooms and can help you to optimise the different spaces you select. Ceremonies and wedding breakfasts can be held in the Music Room, exquisitely decorated by Vincenzo Valdrè, or The Marble Saloon inspired by the Pantheon Rome. The State Dining Room, whose natural lighting and intricate ceiling provide a stunning backdrop for a wedding breakfast, and the Temple Room acts as a great dancing and bar area for your evening party with plenty of room for moonwalks and slow dances alike. For more intimate celebrations, the recently restored Blue Room and its distinct Damask Silk walls is an idyllic space for smaller wedding parties. Feel the elegance of days gone by as you walk through the magnificent floor-to-ceiling doors onto our South Portico. You and your guests can enjoy drinks and canapés on the South Portico, overlooking the Octagon Lake, Corinthian Arch and rolling Buckinghamshire countryside as far the eye can see. Gather all your friends and family on the steps leading down from the South Portico for a fantastic photo opportunity with the entirety of the House behind you all for the perfect stately home wedding. Once on the grounds, you and your guests can enjoy garden games, relax and enjoy the view or make use of the access to the National Trust grounds for photos. Services Offered The onsite team at Stowe House works to give soon-to-be-weds a personalized wedding experience. An event coordinator will also be available to make sure everything goes according to plan.

Stowe House is the perfect and most magical place to get married ! The team at Stowe (especially Molly) went above and beyond to make our special day so incredible.

It’s been exactly 5 months since our perfect wedding at Stowe House, and our guests are still talking about how stunning it was! The venue is absolutely breath-taking with elegant rooms, beautiful gardens, and a truly romantic atmosphere. But what made it even more exceptional was the events team. Beth and Mia were phenomenal. From our first meeting, they were professional, organised, responsive, and incredibly supportive. As a Type A bride, I had lots of questions, but they always had answers, offered regular check-ins, and gave fantastic vendor recommendations. On the day, they went above and beyond setting up, coordinating with suppliers, welcoming our guests, and ensuring everything ran smoothly. Their flexibility and dedication truly made all the difference. Our amazing photographer captured the day so beautifully, it felt like we were in a movie. We’re beyond grateful to Beth and Mia for making our day stress-f

We booked Stowe House as our wedding venue over 18 months when we attended a wedding open day. We immediately fell in love with the grandeur of the venue, every room in the house is spectacular in its own right. The team at Stowe House were excellent throughout our wedding journey. In particular, our co-ordinator Leticia made us feel at ease during every step of the process, she was very organised and professional throughout giving us great tips and advice on planning our day. We had the most amazing w

It has been nearly a month since our wedding at Stowe House, and we are still receiving endless compliments about how incredible the venue was. Before choosing Stowe, we explored countless venues between London and Leicester but couldn’t agree on any—until we arrived at Stowe House. The moment we saw it, we knew it was the one. From the scenic drive leading up to the breathtaking entrance to the most magical room we’ve ever seen—the Marble Dome—Stowe House is a photographer’s dream. Every room is filled with stunning character, meaning we needed minimal décor to create an elegant atmosphere. Beyond the beauty of the venue, the Stowe House team was just as exceptional. Molly and Mia were more than coordinators; they felt like an extra Bridesmaid and Groomsman, going above and beyond in every way. Their attention to detail and dedication made our day run flawlessly. To truly capture their impact, here’s just a glimpse of what they did for us: Arranged for Chiavari chairs to be brought in Coordinated seamlessly with all suppliers Accommodated a last-minute request to cover statues Responded promptly—even over the Christmas period Held as many planning meetings as we needed and provided a full itinerary Brought us everything we needed while we were getting ready Directed guests professionally and politely Ensured the entire day flowed exactly as we wanted Allowed us to store items the day before and helped us move the items Allowed us to leave items in the venue until 11 am the next day Delivered on every promise they made Even the security team went above and beyond, helping guests who were stuck in the snow. To sum it all up: Stowe House is the perfect venue, made even more special by the most incredible team. We co

We had our wedding reception at Stowe in September this year. The venue was grand and eyecatching. We felt like the Hollywood stars in our own Wedding film. As a result of the grand surroundings we have wedding photos that we will look back on with great joy for years to come. Our wedding co-ordinator Tish was all over the details. Her gentle guidance was essential in the buildup and it guaranteed the smooth running of the day. Her professionalism, attentiveness and responsiveness as well as that of the other staff was second to none. We couldn't ha

We opted for the winter package with Stowe for our wedding. Our wedding coordinator Tish has been so helpful and responsive throughout the year of planning. She is approachable and answered all questions promptly. The venue itself is impressive and all of our guests enjoyed the day!

Beth and Tish were INCREDIBLE on our wedding day and in the lead up! We genuinely wouldn't have had such a great day them both managing it, all of our friends and family also said how it was a joy speaking with them both and we still can't believe we were actually running AHEAD of schedule! They were always being on hand to answer any questions that we had and frequently check

Stowe House really is/was our dream wedding venue that exceeded all our expectations (even after seeing it multiple times!). One of the things we've been most complemented on after our big day was how stunning and unique our wedding venue was, which speaks volumes! The Marble Saloon in particular, where our ceremony took place, left everyone in awe. Megan and Beth at Stowe House were exceptional, ensuring every detail was flawlessly executed. From the attentive event coordinators to the team as a whole, their professionalism added to the overall seamless experience. Stowe House offers a unique blend of timeless sophistication and modern amenities, mak

We had the best experience with the Stowe wedding team. Beth and the team were extremely helpful from start to finish. I so enjoyed wedding planning and especially working with Beth; her help was second to none and I couldn’t have done it all without her. I could not have chosen a better venue either. Stowe House is simply breathtaking an

Stowe House is an incredible wedding venue. The architecture is stunning throughout, and the views across the lawn to the lake are breathtaking. The layout of the venue's rooms works perfectly for weddings, and it could comfortably accommodate over 200 guests. The Event Manager who was our primary contact throughout was excellent. Very responsive, flexible and very easy to get on with. We had a few non-standard requests, and they always found a way to accommodate us. I would highly recommend Stowe House to anyone looking for a magical wedding, and a truly unforgettable day.
