Nestled on a family-run farm, this exquisite Georgian mansion and ornamental gardens will provide an idyllic backdrop for your dream country wedding.

Facilities and Capacity

The wedding venue is a stunning, environmentally friendly conversion of the property's historic barns which stand just meters from Sandon Manor. Here is an exceptionally stylish and flexible space where you can create your bespoke wedding with an old romantic ambience. There are a variety of options available for your wedding ceremony ranging from the splendid East Wing ceremony hall to the chic courtyard summerhouse. The 17th-century manor is the premier setting for intimate weddings, where you can exchange vows at the end of the beautiful winding staircase. Alternatively, you can opt for a wild woodland ceremony within the estate's ancient parkland. When it comes to celebrating, the Medieval barn boasts a cocktail bar and a generous banqueting space for 150. The venue also features a Dance pod with custom lighting and a Haybarn bar building for wet weather receptions. For the ultimate private wedding weekend, you can enjoy a stay in the boutique Sandon Manor which sleeps 16 or a more romantic two or three-night affair in Dovecote. What's more, you can receive all the spoils with a breakfast hamper delivered to your door each morning.

The best venue!

We recently had our Wedding at Sandon Manor and could not recommend them highly enough as both a venue and accommodation for both the Bride and Groom and your Wedding Party. We spent the weekend in the manor and got married outside in the courtyard which are both gorgeous! We had our wedding breakfast in the medieval barn which is also stunning. The venue has recently been refurbished to a really high standard and is the perfect venue for old meets new! The service from the team at Sandon is outstanding and they went above and beyond to make our day seamless and special to us. From start to finish we could not fault them, and have the most wonderful memories to cherish from our Wedding weekend!

Easter Weekend Intimate Wedding

We had an intimate wedding at Sandon Manor over the Easter Bank Holiday weekend.
The house was the perfect back drop to our wedding as well as housing all our family and a dog comfortably. The Sandon Manor team are a delight to work with and Marianne in particular went out of her way at to make sure we were comfortable.
We would have stayed forever if we could!

We had the best day!

We had the best day celebrating our wedding reception at Sandon Manor. Getting ready in the beautiful house and Dovecot, then returning to the barn for our drinks reception, food and dancing - it was brilliant. Communication from Kate and Holly was excellent and they really understood what we wanted for our wedding. We had booked the house for the whole weekend too and loved that we, and the guests that were also staying could pop back (the security team for the house and the barn were fantastic too). We were Sandon Manor's first wedding but you felt like they had done it 100 times over and if anything didn't go to plan, we certainly didn't notice.

One of the big selling points for us was the separate (but not separate) dance floor. So many guests said how nice it was that they could still sit around and chat but still see the dance floor and hear the music in the background. The dance area was just the right size for us and our friends and family to show off some serious moves.

Thank you to Holly and all of the team, and extended team, at Sandon Manor. Our wedding day was filled with love, laughter, drinks and LOTS of dancing.

Historically beautiful, countryside wedding venue with a team of professional organisers.

I felt so very lucky to be able to get married here. It is not often you come across a carefully restored 12th century Tithe barn. With the wedding set up it really looked incredible. We had a large gathering of people and the venue still felt very comfortable. The options for space and photos also mean that guests can enjoy bubbles outside while you as a couple can take a bit of time for pictures etc. A team of such friendly local people were involved in the set up, service and general organisation throughout. We used a local caterer and the quality of food was outstanding, catering to such a range of tastes.
