About wedding venue types
Wedding venues by type
From castles and country houses to villas, hotels and resorts, every kind of venue makes a different wedding. Discover the settings that suit your guest list, your season and the way you want the weekend to feel, each chosen with elegance and a distinctive personal approach.
Choosing your kind of venue
Begin with the size of your guest list and the feel of the day, then decide whether you want one place for everything or separate spaces for the ceremony, dinner and stay. Ask each type about exclusive use, rooms on site, catering rules, finish times and the wet-weather plan, and visit in the season you will marry in.
