A wedding that's completely yours.

Bury Court isn't part of a venue group. It's a family business. We live here, and it's looked after by people who care about this place and about every celebration held in it.

So you'll find people who know the barn, the gardens, the food and the estate, and who want your day to feel unmistakably yours.

When you marry here, the place is yours. Your people. Your music. Your food. Your party. We'll shape the day around what matters to you, not fit you into a formula.

Plan it your way

One way your day could go

There's no set running order at Bury Court. This is one way a day can unfold, and everything you'll find here along the way.

  1. A bride in a white robe and her bridesmaids in black, arms round each other, facing the garden under a tree

    Morning

    Getting ready in the Prep room

    The morning starts in the Prep room, a few steps from the barn, so you arrive in tip-top condition, whatever the weather.

    15 bedrooms, including the honeymoon suite

  2. Coral glass chandeliers hanging over the tables of the Hop Kiln Café

    Late morning

    Coffee at the café

    Guests who arrive early after a long journey can settle in with proper coffee at our café, out of the weather, before the ceremony.

    The café

  3. The barn set for a ceremony: chairs either side of the aisle, crystal chandeliers under the oak beams, candles and flowers

    Afternoon

    Vows in the garden, or the barn

    Marry outdoors in the ceremony garden, or inside the barn under the chandeliers if the sky has other ideas.

  4. Piet Oudolf's walled garden of pink and purple perennials and clipped yew under a summer sky

    Late afternoon

    Drinks in the Formal Gardens

    After your 'I do's', step into our formal gardens for a relaxed drinks reception, with free-flowing bubbles and canapés. While your guests explore Piet Oudolf's planting, it's the perfect time for photographs with family and friends.

    Evening

    Dinner in the barn

    Our own kitchen, The Good Life, cooks every wedding here, from fine dining and seasonal menus to Sunday roasts and street food. It's completely up to you. Then cocktails, a cigar and whisky cart, even a bar in a vintage Tuk Tuk.

    Late

    Do not walk on the grass. Dance on it.
