Whether you are looking for a stylish indoor setting, a wonderfully natural woodland theme, relaxed or formal garden tipi wedding, or the totally unique experience of the subterranean Vaults, you will find it all at Hirst Priory. The elegantly charming country manor house set in 18 acres of private grounds becomes your own exclusive estate for your very special day. The reception and ceremony rooms are a photographer’s dream, filled with natural light and brought to life by our creative team of stylists and suppliers to fully reflect your individual style and personality. The seven en-suite bedrooms have recently been refurbished creating a luxuriously regal place for your wedding party to stay and extend the celebrations. The enchanting woodland clearing is perfect for those wanting an outdoor ceremony, vows are taken under the canopy of the magnificent mature trees. Choose this setting at night, and the bows twinkle with fairy lights. The South facing gardens provide a beautiful setting for ceremonies and an open space to relax or indulge in garden games. They provide the perfect backdrop for giant hat tipis for a fabulously informal reception and party setting. For something a little more unusual, adventurous, intimate and truly unique, the Priory’s stunning vaulted cellar rooms make for an unforgettable wedding day experience. It is an amazingly atmospheric place to exchange vows, share good food, and enjoy a sophisticated celebratory drink at the well stocked gin and rum bar.

We can’t thank you all enough, you made our dream
My husband I got married at Hirst Priory on 29/02/20. It was amazing and a dream come true. Hazel and her team where amazing. We had planned for an outside wedding but due to the weather it had to be called inside. We had gone to set a few things up the day before and Hazel had her team already clearing the space just in case we could make it outside. However, following the weather and storms we all agreed it had to be inside. The team sorted everything there was no issue too big. It was all in the backup plan. The venue was laid out just the way we had discussed, the food was amazing. We stayed the night before and the day after for breakfast and my family’s dietary needs were catered for, (they like to be complicated). The staff were friendly, and hazel and her team took control over everything from getting mother and children down the aisle to us leaving the next day. We even had a friend stay in her camper van as this was where she lives, and Hazel completely supported this and had no issues. We can’t thank you all enough, you made our dream day come true :)

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day
We had our wedding here two weeks ago, and from start to finish Hazel and her team were incredible. The setting is simply stunning, everything is co-ordinated to perfect timing, Hazel was always there to offer her experienced advise and most importantly our guests all commented on what a beautiful day it was. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. Thank you Hazel xx

Hirst Priory was the first and last wedding venue
Hirst Priory was the first and last wedding venue we visited! We immediately fell in love with the beautiful setting and the wonderful people who work there! From the beginning Hazel and her team were very helpful and accommodating, especially when we wanted a Landrover Defender Pizza Oven in the evening!! Every single person there worked so hard to make our day special and they did not fail! The woodland setting, the Vaults, the main rooms, not to mention the bedrooms are beyond beautiful and lend themselves to any wedding, whatever the theme! Not to mention the breakfast was fab!! All the guests loved the venue and were full of complements for the staff and all Hirst Priory's partners (Halo, Cater Me Tasty, DJ). We will be back for whatever our next party is!

Hirst Priory is perfect !
Hirst Priory is perfect ! I cannot recommend it enough and no review will ever do this place justice. We got married on the 25/05/19 and from booking 2 years before we knew we loved the place but our actual day exceeded every expectation. Hazel and her team couldn’t do enough for us and they went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect! I am honestly gutted it is all over our whole experience of Hirst Priory was magical from start to finish

We would recommend Hazel and her team at Hirst Pr
“Hazel was a huge help and support for us from the very moment we met her at our show around through to the end of our wedding celebrations. The arrangements, venue and organisation made our special day, bespoke, relaxing and a memory to cherish. We would recommend Hazel and her team at Hirst Priory any time, especially when having to avert a crisis such as the best man dropping the rings”

We couldn’t have chosen a better venue for our Wed
We couldn’t have chosen a better venue for our Wedding Day; Hirst Priory was the most magical setting. I wanted everything to be perfect and Hazel and her team made sure it was. The service received at Hirst Priory is second to none, Hazel and her team are so helpful and accommodating; nothing is too much trouble and they understand how important a wedding day is for a couple and their families. The venue was absolutely stunning, with every guest commenting on how breath-taking it was. The newly decorated rooms were beautiful and the reception room was so bright and fresh. Guests were so impressed with the beautiful vaults downstairs and the reception room, decorated so tastefully and classy by Blush Venue Décor. The grounds and woodland of Hirst Priory gave the wedding day an extra ‘wow’ factor, accommodating our surprise fireworks for our guests. I can’t recommended Hirst Priory enough, whether you want a rustic wedding in the woodland, or like us, a glamourous, timelessly decorated wedding day, it will excel. The food was amazing, with all of our family and friends commenting on how generous the food sizes were and how delicious it was. Thank you so much Hazel, we will be forever grateful for you helping make our special day the best day of our lives… I wish we could do it all over again!

Hirst Priory is the most beautiful setting
I don’t know how to put it into the right words to express how very amazing you and your staff were for us. From the very beginning, nothing was too much trouble. Anything and everything I asked for, you agreed too and sorted for me. Hirst Priory is the most beautiful setting, but you and your team make the place come alive with the most beautiful atmosphere and aura that it feels just like home. I would go beyond recommending your beautiful priory to anyone and everyone, as it couldn’t have been better. Thank you so very much for deciding to clear the wood to make it usable for weddings, If you hadn’t, we would never have found you. All I wanted was to get married in a wood, but you made it all so much more special, and the wood came alive with all the hard work that you all put in.

Alex and I fell in love with Hirst Priory the mome
Alex and I fell in love with Hirst Priory the moment we stepped through the doors. We knew it was the place we wanted to get married. Hazel and her team did a fantastic job making our wedding perfect. Our Tipi wedding was magical and the woodland was beautiful. We couldn’t have asked for a better day, and we can’t thank the Hirst Priory team enough.

David and I are over the moon with our wedding yesterday 23/12/16 it was the most perfect day from start to finish! Hazel and her team worked their socks off to make sure everything ran like clockwork and we didn’t have to worry about a thing! The tables and decorations were stunning and the food was to die for! We danced the night away with Duke and The Daisy and had the most fabulous time! Hirst Priory is the perfect setting for the most beautiful wedding, we are only sad that it is all over. We loved every single minute of it!
