"Beautiful by design and first-class hostess to royalty"
The Castle
If you are looking for a beautiful historic venue for your wedding day, look no further. Adorned with beautiful and magnificent state rooms, the Castle provides the perfect setting to host your dream wedding day.
Your guests will arrive to the grand view of Leeds Castle rising majestically above the moat, before entering the Castle to the newly refurbished Ceremony Room. Take in the natural daylight floods through the beautiful long French windows, and the soft pastel colours around the room, which bring a sense of calm and tranquillity to your ceremony.
The Maidens Tower
The Maiden’s Tower Wedding venue is an elegant, exclusive use location adjacent to the Castle.
This 16th-century stone building, previously used for weekend house parties in the 1930s, is now a glamorous self-contained venue perfect for wedding ceremonies, evening celebrations and overnight accommodation.
The venue consists of two wedding rooms with French doors leading onto a charming private garden, and boasts five en-suite guest rooms, all beautifully decorated in period style with a contemporary twist, offering views across the moat to the golf course and surrounding parkland.
Outdoor Wedding Receptions
Looking to host many guests for your wedding day celebration? Our exceptional outdoor wedding receptions could be the perfect choice. Bring all your friends and family together in the most glamorous of settings.
You’ll be celebrating in the spectacular grounds of Leeds Castle, a place that has welcomed Royalty and the upper echelons of English society for 900 years. They knew how to celebrate – and our wedding planning team will be on hand to ensure your own marquee wedding reception continues that tradition.
