About Wadhurst Castle

Wadhurst Castle Weddings enjoy a very special home in the heart of an area of outstanding natural beauty on the borders of Kent and Sussex. A stunning venue that, for all of our weddings, is always exclusively yours on your special day. The perfect setting for weddings and any other unforgettable celebration, from a party of 2 up to 130 people. Our flexible and tailored approach means that we host receptions with or without a ceremony or the ceremony alone. The castle rooms, the barn and the beautiful gardens are all included in the venue hire for each wedding. The stunning views from each add to the creation of the perfect backdrop for your wedding experience. Guests can take advantage of the variety of areas licensed for legal ceremonies from the Victorian charm of the Winter Garden with its exotic plants, to the grandeur of the castle's Drawing Room or the light filled and spacious Carriage Barn. In the summer, you can enjoy open air ceremonies in the beautiful Walled Garden or on the South Lawn with its magnificent views. Whatever you plan for your special day, Wadhurst Castle, its gardens and barn are exclusively yours to enjoy. You will have our friendly and professional team on hand to assist you through your event journey, and to help manage everything for you on the special day. All our events enjoy a choice between our excellent recommended caterers. They also benefit from our no corkage policy should you choose to provide your own drinks for part or all of the celebrations. Of course, our Wadhurst Castle Wine Cellar can also provide a carefully chosen and competitive full wine list on an off licence basis if you prefer.

We were completely in awe of our venue and the staff on our big day! They were very responsive and accommodating to all our needs in the build up. The big day itself could only be described as perfect. We had more staff at hand than we were expecting who tended to all our needs with swift…

I'm not sure a more perfect venue exists - it's beautiful, the team are an absolute delight and make everything so easy, there's no corkage (!), it's shockingly well priced compared to equivalent venues, and it's a FLIPPING CASTLE! The photos are all stunning no matter where they're taken and their…

We walked into Wadhurst Castle 2 years ago and knew from that moment it was where we wanted to get married. The grounds and venue are beautiful as well as all of the intricate details within the gardens. There are so many spaces to use during the day and we made use of all them - which created a…

We chose Wadhurst Castle as our wedding venue and it was one of the easiest and best decisions we made! I cannot recommend this venue enough. It speaks for itself, the castle is such an incredible backdrop and the grounds are beautiful. But what you won't see from pictures is the team behind it -…
