Stretching over 1,000 acres, the Luton Hoo estate boasts formal gardens designed by Capability Brown, glorious parkland, meadows, woodlands, lakes, rivers and nature trails – truly picture perfect!
Beyond the magnificent façade of the 18th-century mansion house, the historic influences continue in the Grade II listed Country Club. Also situated on the Luton Hoo estate, by the River Lea banks, is the exclusive-use venue Warren Weir – a hidden oasis that’s perfect for those looking for a private exclusive wedding. The space features ornate ceilings, winding staircases, marble fireplaces, individual period rooms, beautiful chandeliers and stunning interiors.
For ceremonies, couples can choose from popular options like The Library or the Sitting Room with views over the formal gardens and lake, or perhaps the beautifully decorated Churchill room or Pushkin room would be more fitting? All of the suites including the Lea & Roding Suite, Ravensbourne Suite, Bayford Suite, and Cobbins Suite, accommodate larger gatherings.
Post-vows, couples can celebrate in multiple spaces offering many benefits such as the Romanov Suite, undoubtedly the most impressive room that was once the Chapel of the house, which showcases original stained-glass windows and ornate ceilings. The suite can be used for various events with 120 diners across both the upper and lower levels.
When tying the knot here, couples will benefit from a dedicated wedding team to assist in the smooth running of the day and enjoy a complimentary menu tasting session and suite for the newlyweds on the wedding night. Check out: www.lutonhoo.co.uk
