Description

Nestled within 250 acres of Berkshire parkland, De Vere Wokefield Estate is a venue quite unlike any other. Built in 1788 by celebrated architect Sir John Soane, the estate has welcomed distinguished guests into its surroundings for centuries. Explore our grounds to discover elegantly manicured lawns with views across the lake, then step inside to reveal interiors that have recently undergone a £20 million transformation. Now, original features including fluted columns, dramatic ceilings and grand fireplaces blend beautifully with contemporary interior design, creating a luxurious atmosphere for your wedding day. With 7 rooms licensed for a ceremony you will be spoiled for choice of where to make your vows. Not only do we have beautiful grounds we have an 18 hole golf course, activity company on site as well as 4 restaurant and bars to relax in. With all of this why not make a weekend of it and have the Mansion exclusively yours to celebrate with your loved ones passed the point of "I do".

Kim & Ashley
Happy couple married in November
November 2018
Overall a wonderful day
Natasha Eden who was our last coordinator was excellent she made us feel very reassured after all the initial mess ups and was very contactable and answered many of my random emails. She definitely knows her stuff and made us feel at ease. I feel really bad as I cannot remember the gentlemans name but the guy who ran our wedding on the day was amazing, he was very friendly and helpful he was still smiling at 1am and that we were the cleanest wedding. The guest relation manager (I believe Andrew) was amazing too as HMU breakfast got delivered an hour later than it was meant to, he delivered it himself and apologized for the delay. The guests even commented on the food and said how yummy it was so please pass on thanks to the Chef. The waiting staff were also very good.
