Introduction
Warwickshire boasts some beautiful countryside - just right for your wedding. Just right for a celebrant wedding. Within this beautiful countryside sits some wonderful wedding venues just waiting to host weddings and for brides too say ‘I do’.
If you head north out of Stratford Upon Avon towards the village of Wootton Wawen you will find, nestled down at the end of its own winding track the lovely venue, that is Wootton Park which has everything a couple and their friends and families need for their wedding.
About
Wootton Park wedding venue is surrounded by approx 360 acres of rolling countryside, offering breathtaking views whichever way you turn. Whether you are looking to say your wedding vows with lush fields behind you, beside a tranquil lake, or under a canopy of ancient trees, the beauty makes it the perfect place for saying ‘I do’ and having stunning photos taken that you will treasure forever.
Versatility at Wootton Park, - inside or outside - is the name of the game. Because each couple wants their own unique wedding, this venue will reflect that. Everyone will ensure that whether it’s quirky or traditional, you will have your dream wedding.
Your wedding venue
From delightful ceremony room, to large wedding breakfast room, from lakeside vows to boats on the lake, from bedrooms in the luxurious farmhouse to glamping pods and shepherd huts, Wootton Park wedding venue has something for everyone.
You can have a celebrant wedding in any part of the grounds, although whether I fancy taking you through your vows sitting in a boat I’d have to think about.
There is room for up to 150 people at this venue whether inside or outside, yet you can also do an intimate wedding for just 50 people.
If you want to stay overnight then there are 8 bedrooms for hire in the main Farmhouse, or for something different, 11 glamping pods in the grounds. This means that as the bride you can relax the night before your special day in cosy luxury.
Whether you decided to stay overnight or not Wootton Park offer their bridal parties, the Hayloft which is a series of rooms, for the bridal party to use to get ready in. The groom and his best man have the Den where they can relax and prepare for the day. Everything required to make a stress free start to your special day.
For a Friday wedding you may be able to access everything on the Thursday afternoon. For Saturday weddings, if you haven’t stayed overnight, then you can gain access mid morning.
After your ceremony you can choose from a variety of places for your photos - the lake, on a boat, in the courtyard, the choices are many. Then you move onto the wedding breakfast. Whether you want a formal sit down meal, street food suppliers or a BBQ, again the choice is yours. And to finish off the day you can have fireworks over the lake, or a DJ playing your songs.
Many many choices and all can be discussed with the venue when you book your date. Wedding package rates will vary depending upon the package you choose so please ask Wootton Park direct.
Why have your celebrant ceremony here
Wootton Park is such a unique venue that it deserves to have a unique ceremony led by a celebrant. With a celebrant you can have that personalised ceremony. You can choose the cosy yet elegant indoor space, or for an outdoor ceremony the lakeside arbour is a must-see - romantic, peaceful and charming. Creative decor and symbolic rituals like handfasting or unity candles, the options are endless.
As a celebrant I always encourage couples to think outside the box and create a ceremony that’s as unique as their love story and you can certainly do this at Wootton Park, where your ideas can have no boundaries.
