Hale Park Full Description
Hale Park is a unique wedding venue in the South of England. Situated on an agricultural estate in the New Forest, it is a stately home that was built as a home but with the space and flexibility to allow you to mould and paint this blank canvas to create a unique day that is yours alone. With few restrictions, Hale Park can be your statement; your honouring of your union; your treat for your friends and a memory to last forever. The house is approached down the lime tree avenue which is three-quarters of a mile long (or 1.2 km). There are almost 100m2 of Drawing Rooms and more than 500m2 of gardens (big enough for a circus tent!) and included with these is car parking, power and water; bridal preparation rooms; a separate Gents and rather unique mixed Gents and Ladies’ toilets. 90 or so people can be seated in the church with room for overspill outside. 120 people can be seated in the licensed Drawing Rooms for a Civil Ceremony and 120 people can sit down to your wedding breakfast. In addition you can be married under the very impressive front portico or anywhere in the Gardens; the woodland glade introduced in 2022 is proving to be popular. Here at Hale Park, we are trying to reach a responsible level of low carbon use. We are in an environmental agricultural scheme called Higher Level Stewardship which is the top level of such schemes. It means we have Soil Association organic certification for the meadow pastures; six metre hedgerow boundaries around all fields; healthy woodlands with 11 Ancient Woodland indicator specie; water meadows that are grazed carefully and a section of river prized by fishermen. Also, plans are well advanced to make the switch from oil generated heating and hot water to water source energy and the solar PV system has been in place for many years now.

Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Sloan
Sloan wants couples to know that he loves being the background to - arguably - the biggest day in that couple's lives. It is very exciting to have a party in one's garden that is so full of love and happiness and celebration. Working behind the scenes on the details of legal or church, through how the sun shines into the marquee, to eating and drinking and solving all the little logistical niggles along the way is very satisfying; as is receiving the thanks of the new Mr. & Mrs. as they depart!

Thank you so much!
Just wanted to say thank you so much Hale Park for making our wedding so wonderful. We really did have the most wonderful day. So many people said how beautiful the venue was and how much they enjoyed the day and that wouldn't have been possible without Charlotte/Sloan. You didn't stop all day! Thank you so much for coordinating everything and making sure everyone was where they should be, you were amazing!

The perfect day!
2 weeks ago today we were married at Hale Park. From booking the venue to after being married Sloan couldn't be more helpful. From the word go Sloan and us worked together to create the perfect day!

Staff was so helpful and hands on
I am vegan chef and was providing good for the wedding on July, and despite it being the wettest day in the Summer, staff was so helpful and hands on, we had lots of challenges, but at the end everything worked out great. Thank you, and hopefully see you again!

Really couldn't fault this venue in anyway!
The most beautiful house with so much charm and character! The team at Hale Park made every effort to ensure we had an amazing day and every detail was covered by them! The views from the back of the house are incredible. Such a relaxed owner which made us feel so comfortable to be able to choose exactly what we wanted. Really couldn’t fault this venue in anyway!

In my eyes this place is a Paradise.
Beautiful place. Very positive experience visiting Hale Park. Currently, there are thousands of snow drops like a carpet across some of the land, crocus and daffodils too. In my eyes this place is a Paradise. Dr Mayan Lynch
