Wedding drinks receptions

After your wedding ceremony we would be delighted to offer a drinks reception while the happy couple have their photographs taken. Reception drinks are served in the Chandos Dining Room, which is located on the ground floor close to the Ceremony Room and can host up to 50 guests. Drinks receptions are available every Saturday throughout the year but must be the last ceremony of the day to guarantee exclusivity. Other days and times will be considered on application.
