Weekend house party weddings at Widcombe Grange
The lakeside gazebo is particularly appealing for an outdoor wedding ceremony. Afterwards choose between a marquee reception, the rural barn or the characterful coach house. Within the beautiful grounds there are several positions that are wonderful for your marquee and you might want to consider a fabulous festival style wedding if you’d like more of your guests staying onsite over the weekend in a tipi village.
When you choose a house party weekend wedding you’ll be able to enjoy so much more than just a one day event. You’ll usually arrive on a Friday afternoon and perhaps crack open a bottle of champagne to kick off your celebrations, or maybe you’ve decided to add a very personal touch by decorating your marquee with the help of some of your friends. By evening, the hot tub will probably be central, giving you a fun, relaxing night before your big day. Don’t forget, if you want a hand with supper, we can put you in touch with a local chef – Michelin star or homely comfort food, the choice is yours.

Saturday, you’ll wake up feeling like you’re getting married in your own home, not a hotel where you follow their timetable. Pad downstairs in your pj’s and have breakfast whenever you want, wherever you want it – perhaps arrange something fun for the morning, like clay shooting, or relax with an indulgent massage. As your ceremony approaches, our team start to discreetly do their thing, making sure you have your dream day just how you want it. During the months leading up to your wedding, you’ll have had several meetings with us and a menu tasting, so you know the only surprises will be good ones!
Part of the beauty of the wedding weekend is that the day after, the fun still isn’t over, you won’t be packing up and saying your good-byes. Sunday allows you to carry on for one more day. Reminiscing, laughing, relaxing by the pool. Maybe a barbecue; get your friends and family to pitch in, or we’ll be happy to arrange help. However you decide to spend your weekend here, you’ll have so many memories to cherish – it won’t feel like it’s over in a flash, it will feel like you’ve had the best weekend of your life and married the love of your life.
