2. At the Great House, weddings can be as traditional or as informal as you wish. Celebrate your big day with the ceremony in the Orangery or just having the reception and an
evening gathering in our smaller private room, the Barn. We are happy to discuss all options and requirements for your big day with you.
CEREMONY
The Orangery is licensed for civil ceremonies, for civil partnership, baby naming ceremony and renewal of vows. The Orangery overlooks the beautiful, landscaped
gardens and opens out on to the extensive Mediterranean style stone terrace. Should you wish to have your ceremony with us, we will arrange this for you via the Tunbridge
We do charge a fixed fee of £200 for the use of our Orangery, based on a minimum number of 30 guests. Terms & conditions apply.
WEDDING BREAKFAST AND CELEBRATION
Once again, we aim to be flexible with your requirements, from the reception drink following your marriage, followed by a lavish wedding breakfast with cut of the cake and
evening reception, maybe a more intimate celebration amongst friends or an evening buffet, the team at the Great House will make sure your requirements are prepared with
care from the moment you contact us to the event itself. We do not require minimum numbers for wedding breakfast.
