About Wakehurst

RBG Kew's botanic gardens in West Sussex, catering for a variety of wedding days in either the contemporary Millennium Seed Bank conservatory, a stunning and bespoke marquee or the former stately Mansion of Lord and Lady Price - yours for the day!

Wakehurst, the Royal Botanic Garden Kew’s country estate in Sussex provides over 500 acres of fairy tale woodlands offering stunning backdrops and vibrant displays in the shape of our ‘wedding dress and candy floss trees’ to build your own story board of treasured wedding memories to share with friends and family.
Manicured lawns are overlooked by the romantic 16th century mansion previously owned by Lord and Lady Price is yours exclusively for the day. The venue of choice by the majority of our couples, it can accommodate the more intimate of weddings (from 10 guests) and offers traditional grandeur whilst retaining the warmth of a ‘home from home’ to celebrate the most special of days.
Alternatively the striking and contemporary displays housed in the Millennium Seed Bank ‘glasshouse’ offers a globally unique setting for a larger wedding breakfast. With pre-breakfast drinks taken on the terraces one can trickle one’s fingers through the fish filled ponds and parterres whilst partaking in a glass or two of fizz!
A bespoke marquee can command centre stage on the heart of Croquet Lawn and with panoramic windows offering views towards the Mansion, the Croquet Lawn provides for pre-breakfast drinks and perhaps a few garden games, as well as photo opportunities in the Wisteria clad gazebo.
With our experienced on site team and a selection of established special events caterers we will work with you to deliver a seamless day from beginning to end and one to remember forever.
