The Forest Centre

The natural place to get married... The Forest Centre is a licensed venue for indoor and outdoor weddings and civil partnerships, receptions and evening celebrations. For those looking for something less traditional, we are happy to host alternative celebrant services at the Forest Centre or in our outdoor spaces. The Forest Centre can cater for up to 80 day guests, and 220 in the evening, with scope for larger weddings in a hired marquee. Our experienced, friendly team understand that every couple is different and that their wedding day should be uniquely their own. Attending to every detail, our Wedding Coordinator and in-house caterers will help you create a truly personal “perfect day”. We provide a range of in-house catering and drinks packages - we can deliver everything from a traditional 3 course meal, a barbecue or hog roast, a light buffet, street food or afternoon tea. Holding your special day at the Forest Centre helps fund the creation of the Forest of Marston Vale; supporting our vision to plant another 5 million trees. As a special gift, we dedicate a tree to every couple who celebrate their wedding with us, to mark the importance of both their marriage and the lasting legacy of their contribution to our work. Packages start from £1995, but our £6495* To Have and To Hold package includes everything you need for your big day - decorations, food and drinks and evening entertainment, as well as support from our Wedding Coordinator. "This venue had everything we were looking for. From the start of us confirming the booking till our special day we were looked after…I can honestly say we had the best day of our lives.

You were all brilliant and we couldn't have asked for anymore… I would recommend this venue to anyone interested in finding the perfect venue for their special day, you will not be disappointed."
