Wedding spaces

Each of our elegant wedding spaces offers something different. From palatial Italianate style and lush gardens, to art deco and impressive neo gothic, you're sure to find the perfect fit.


Main Hall

It is not hard to see why the stunning cantilevered staircase that majestically winds its way around the Main Hall is frequently chosen by couples as the location for their wedding ceremony. The ceremony is able to fit up to 180. This is the perfect setting for anyone looking to make a grand entrance.

Old Library

Opening directly onto a terrace overlooking our Italian Garden through the Loggia, this room is a firm favourite for hosting reception drinks. Bonus points if you can find the secret door.


Chapel

The Chapel is often described as one of James Wyatt’s architectural masterpieces. The fan vaulting and rich wood carving are reminiscent of some of England’s greatest cathedrals. We offer the option of an Anglican blessing ceremony and an organist to all couples.

Wyatt

Formerly the dining lounge, the Wyatt room's impressive Austrian oak panelling was introduced in 1863. This is a favourite for evening music and dancing, and also has a bar attached. It can also be used as an overflow dining space for larger guest numbers.


Loggia

With floor to ceiling windows, The Loggia sits next to the Old Library and overlooks the historic Italian Gardens, making a wonderful place to extend your drinks reception outside. The space is adorned with blue fan vaulted ceiling and amusing plasterwork faces.


Acres

This space is great for hosting a rehearsal dinner where we can offer an Italian, Mexican, Asian, or British themed buffet for you and your guests.

Italian Gardens

Dating from the late 19th century when Italianate gardens were very fashionable, this garden was designed by Lady Marian Alford. The Garden was removed and laid to lawn in the 1950s and reinstated in 2000. It's a favourite for drinks receptions and photos in the gardens.


South Terrace

The South Terrace, overlooking the extensive gardens, can be used for outdoor ceremonies, where the arches of Ashridge House make for an unforgettable backdrop.
