The Venue:
The possibilities at Farnham Castle are endless, and we’d love to help you create an unforgettable day, whether you’re planning a wedding weekend, a 2-day celebration, a rehearsal dinner, or something entirely different.
Our flexible approach means that you can choose where your Ceremony takes place, and where your guests dine, celebrate and party. When you book your wedding at Farnham Castle, our wedding venue is exclusively yours – from our historic Lantern Hall, to our elegant Winchester Suite, and from our stunning Great Hall to our magnificent Great Lawn. We also host outdoor ceremonies on our East Lawn, overlooking our White Rose Garden, and if you’d like a Religious Ceremony at Farnham Castle we offer two beautiful Chapels from very different architectural periods.
We are able to host exclusive use and dry-hire weddings of any size; from intimate weddings for 30 guests, to larger celebrations for over 250, and we have quite literally hosted weddings for couples from all around the world. We also have the best grounds for Marquees, with the most spectacular backdrops and views.
For Destination Weddings and international guests we are conveniently located just an hour from London, and between London Gatwick and Heathrow Airports.
Getting ready on-site has so many benefits, and our ‘Gatehouse’ and ‘Pembroke’ are two perfect suites for you and your wedding party to enjoy being together as you prepare for your day.
Once your celebrations are over, and you have danced the night away in our Great Hall, and enjoyed night caps in our Tindle Bar, your guests will be overjoyed to head to one of our 33 ensuite Castle bedrooms and you will be delighted to reach the tranquillity and luxury of our Honeymoon Suite. Join your guests for Breakfast in our Library the following morning to ensure that everyone has celebrated with you until the very last minute.

At Farnham Castle we have our very own team of exceptional in-house chefs, who create the most wonderful Menus using the finest ingredients. We are proud to have our own Kitchen Garden, and also to use many local suppliers. We even have a bespoke ‘Castle sausage’ on the Breakfast Menu.
We offer a range of Dining Menus, with drinks included, in order to cater for every taste and budget. A typical menu for your guests could include a Champagne reception with Canapes, a three-course dining experience, including your choice of carefully selected wines, a surprise course, your toast, and our very popular Dessert Bar. For a late-night snack why not offer your guests Wood-fired Pizzas from our Pizza oven, whilst your entire party enjoys a spectacular Firework display.

A magical on the day
The staff at Farnham castle were highly professional and the build up to the day with the wedding planning team was efficient and stress-free. Our guests have not stopped talking about our wedding day. They loved the food, the service and the guests that stayed at the castle gave great feedback on their accommodation. The venue itself was even more magical on the day. The grounds looked beautiful which has given us amazing photographs. Our wedding day was as perfect as we could have hoped for and more.

All of the staff were incredible
From our first visit to Farnham we knew that this was the wedding venue for us. Gema who showed us around was amazing, informative and so welcoming! We were then lucky enough to have Laura as our wedding coordinator who was just a dream! She was such a calming presence on the day and couldn’t do enough for us.
All of the staff were incredible and everything was completely perfect. All of our guests were stunned by the venue and highly praised the food.
We cannot recommend Farnham Castle enough, it was everything we wished for and more!

A huge thank you
A huge thank you to Heather and the team at Farnham for giving us the most wonderful wedding day. We knew from our first visit that this was the venue for us and it certainly didn't disappoint - We had so many compliments on the venue, the food, the cocktails and the after party bar... (!) Everything ran so smoothly and meant we could spend our time enjoying ourselves. Most definitely a day we'll never forget!

The venue is so beautiful
"Our wedding at Farnham Castle was truly the best day of our lives. The venue is so beautiful with so much character that left all of our guests absolutely blown away. Come rain or shine there are spaces that made our day so special, and we managed to make the most of so many of the Castle's beautiful rooms.
Every member of staff at Farnham Castle was supportive and calm and everything you could want from the people helping organise your big day. From the moment we met Laura we knew we were in safe hands; her kindness, patience and warm persona made us feel like absolutely nothing was too much trouble – we felt completely safe and knew that our wedding would go perfectly with her as our coordinator.
We are so glad we picked Farnham Castle for our wedding: the food and wine were absolutely divine and we had many happy guests after our wedding breakfast; the rooms are beautiful, well maintained and perfect for any occasion and the staff were friendly, helpful and professional.
We could not have asked for a better day. People often say that something will inevitably go wrong on your wedding day but there is nothing that either of us regret or would change about the day and that is largely due to the whole Farnham Castle team and their beautiful venue.

A spectacular venue
We couldn't have asked for anything more from Farnham Castle. The whole team was absolutely amazing, and we had so many compliments from our guests. Our food was divine, and the day went so smoothly; we didn't have to think or worry about a single thing. If you want a spectacular venue with amazing food and service that will wow your guests, then look no further than the magnificent Farnham Castle!"

Amazing organisation
We cannot thank the Farnham Castle team enough for all of the efforts, patience and amazing organisation that went into the day. Laura – you are such an asset to the Farnham team, and our wedding would not have gone as perfectly as it did without you being a part of the whole process. Any future Farnham couple is very lucky to have you as their wedding coordinator, you were an absolute dream.
