Say I do at Ware Priory in Hertfordshire

Situated in seven acres of picturesque gardens, Ware Priory is a Grade I listed building with contemporary touches and architecture dating back to Medieval times.

The main building is stunning, with a whitewashed frontage and a stonewalled exterior surrounded by flower beds. Multiple spaces at the property provide the perfect settings for all types of weddings – there’s something for everyone.

What was originally the cloister of the original Friary, The Priory Hall accommodates 100 people for ceremonies. Upon entering, guests will love the stained-glass windows and series of French windows that open onto the riverside gardens, which offer many photographic backdrops.

Another location with easy access to the gardens is the Conservatory, which offers a bright and spacious interior. Although licensed for civil ceremonies with 100 loved ones, the area is also an ideal place for wedding breakfasts with 120 people and 140 guests for evening receptions.

The Hadsley Room dates back to the 15th-century and boasts a superb example of a crown post roof. The large refectory table, used by the registrar to conduct the ceremonies and receptions with 40 guests, dates back to the 14th-century and is believed to be from the original Friary.

For grand weddings, The Riverside Suite within Fletcher’s Lea can host 200 people for the “I dos”, 160 for traditional wedding breakfasts or 220 for buffet meals. The Fletcher’s Lea is a standalone building with all catering and bar facilities needed. Additionally, a private terrace offers views over the River Lea and access to all the gardens within the
Priory Estate.
