Description
Description
With its fairy tale gabled roofs, landscaped gardens and charming 12th Century church, Dorney Court is one of the UK’s most beautiful and complete country house wedding venues. Your entire wedding day can unfold on the estate, from the ceremony to late night partying in the perfectly renovated Coach House Barn.
The gardens surrounding Dorney Court provide a lovely setting for drinks and photographs whether on lush green lawns or among the many flowerbeds and borders, while our picturesque courtyard, which adjoins the Coach House Barn, is a suntrap where guests can enjoy an almost Mediterranean feel as they celebrate.
Whether you are looking to hold an intimate ceremony in The Great Hall, a traditional ceremony in St. James the Less Church (located on the estate), a wedding breakfast in The Coach House Barn or a large party in a marquee on the lawns, every wedding at Dorney Court is created especially for each client’s individual requirements to guarantee a unique, perfect day.
A lovingly renovated self-catering cottage next to the Coach House Barn offers the bride, groom or guests luxurious romantic accommodation for their wedding day. Gale Cottage is tucked away in the heart of Dorney Court Estate and just footsteps from the Church and the wedding reception.
