Gaynes Park

This Essex estate certainly delivers on the dream for outdoor wedding venues. In fact, choose to tie the knot at Gaynes Park and you unlock the gate to over 1,000 acres on this idyllic private estate.

Celebrate with a blessing in the gardens, or walk down a garden aisle to your ceremony in the Orangery. You could even enjoy the best of both with open-air vows in the open-sided Gather Barn, come rain or shine.

Braxted Park

Best known as an ultra-romantic red brick mansion, Braxted Park in Essex is also one of the most beautiful outside wedding venues. Invite your guests into the Walled Garden for a Champagne reception with a naturally beautiful backdrop. Later, steal away to the intimate seclusion of the Knott Garden for photos.

The Pear Tree

Set in the Wiltshire countryside just a few miles from the Cotswolds, The Pear Tree is one of the most romantic outdoor wedding venues. Blending old vineyards and English garden borders with a brand-new Orangery oriented to take in the views, you can enjoy the feeling of being alfresco whatever the weather.

Syrencot

Syrencot was purpose-designed to make the most of the great outdoors. Your ceremony takes place in the heart of the Walled Garden, but it's the inter-connected nature of the spaces that makes Syrencot one of the best garden wedding venues.

That's because from the Walled Garden you reach the party Farmshed, as well as the intimate Pump Room for late-night nibbles. Even when you wake from the bedrooms in Syrencot House the following morning, your views will be wild water meadows or beautifully tended grounds.

Rivervale Barn

If you're seeking outdoor wedding venues with a difference, Rivervale Barn could be for you. Not only is the interior a dreamscape of warm-toned beams and huge glazed windows, making it reminiscent of a country cathedral, but it's set on the shore of a lake too.

Wander past the flower beds, discover the waterfall and capture a truly unique photo of your reflections on the water.

Oxnead Hall

Garden wedding venues in the east of England don't get more magical than Oxnead Hall. You'll find this grade-II listed, red brick mansion in Norfolk. Say 'I do' beside the lake, on the riverbank or even in the Orangery. This beautiful space overlooks both the lake and the parterre, giving you the best of garden and water.

Gisburne Park Estate

There aren't many garden wedding venues that you could make your own for an entire week, but at Gisburne Park Estate you can.

The seemingly endless acres of grounds set the scene for days of festivities. You could soak in the hot tub, walk along the river and enjoy sundowners in the gardens. This venue invites you to relax, unwind and savour the experience in its entirety.

Slaugham Place

Imagine saying 'I do' beneath time-worn stone ruins. That's the promise of ceremonies at Slaugham Place, where the ruined arches of an Elizabeth country house cast a romantic backdrop. Throw in the moat and bridge over the river and you've checked off a bucket list of fairy-tale charm. Just picture your wedding photos...
