Doddington is a unique venue; romantic, beautiful and extremely flexible. We know that your wedding is one of the most important days of your life and we take great pride in our personal attention and calm professional approach to this very special occasion.

** SPECIAL WEDDING DEALS FOR 2010: A GREAT YEAR TO GET MARRIED AT DODDINGTON HALL! ** During 2010 we will be building a brand new wedding venue. This will mean the popular Littlehouse venue will not be available.  Instead we will be offering access to Doddington Hall itself and the beautiful Gardens at hugely reduced prices, offering savings of up to £5500 on 2009 prices.    See below for further details.  

 

FOR WEDDINGS IN 2010 / 2011 

We can offer you the chance to get married within the Hall (or grounds) at special prices for 2010 / 2011 (until May): 

Doddington Hall is one of the most beautiful Elizabethan houses in the country. Still privately owned and lived in, it has never been sold since it was built in 1595 and it is a truly splendid venue with a uniquely exclusive and romantic atmosphere.

Between January 2010 and May 2011 only we are offering a very special one-off opportunity for weddings at Doddington Hall while we build our fabulous new extension to the neighbouring Littlehouse. Your Civil Ceremony will be in the stunning Long Gallery which runs the length of the Hall and has beautiful views from the windows along the length of it. It is a breathtaking room, whether you have 20-200 guests and has the advantage of a beautiful grand piano for music during your ceremony. (If you would like to take a quick panoramic look at the Long Gallery, please click here!) You then have choice of two beautiful sites for your marquee reception: The Croquet Lawn is right in the ornamental gardens of the Hall, just a few steps for your guests after the ceremony. The Avenue is situated in the parkland directly below the Hall and is accessible through the hall gardens after your Civil Ceremony. Click here to see details of the Long Gallery and marquee sites.

 

Venue fees for January 2010 to May 2011 only

The Long Gallery and Avenue Marquee site – venue fee from £500 (normally £4,500) The Long Gallery and Croquet Lawn – venue fee £1500 (normally £7,000) On top of this very special offer, we have worked out a fantastic package with our tried and trusted suppliers so you can benefit from our working relationship with them, their familiarity with the venue and the time and cost savings that this can produce for you. Not only is our package the most cost-effective way of planning your wedding, it will also take a huge amount of the stress and strain out of wedding planning.
