Versatile Ceremony Spaces
Arley House offers six individual ceremony areas, each with its own unique charm:
- The Valentia Suite: This principal function suite provides a blank canvas for your wedding ceremony. It can seat over 150 guests and features floor-to-ceiling windows, offering 360-degree panoramic views that create an outdoor feel from the inside.
- The Turner Suite: For more intimate ceremonies, this cosy space features natural tones and decor, with pheasants and stags painted on the walls.
- Outdoor Ceremony Spaces: Choose between the Italian Garden or the wedding Pagoda on the rear lawn. The Pagoda is a stunning white structure surrounded by beautiful plants and shrubs, offering a peaceful and tranquil setting for your ceremony.
Magnificent Grounds and Catering Options
The grounds of Arley House are nothing short of spectacular, featuring the Barbican Tower, Magnolia Garden, a 65m long flower arch, 300 trees dating back over 350 years, formal fountains, peacocks, and views of the River Severn.
Catering options are flexible, accommodating intimate weddings of 120 guests to larger gatherings of 130-250 in a marquee on the rear lawn or a Tipi on the front lawn adjacent to the Italian Garden. Work with Executive Chef Phillip Bradley and his team to create a bespoke menu, including the option to design your own Amazing Grazing Platter and dessert station.
Comfortable and Charming Accommodations
Arley House offers boutique ensuite bedrooms, designed with comfort and relaxation in mind. The Grange, a Grade II listed Georgian House, has been converted into 13 luxury bedrooms, many featuring four-poster beds. A specially designated room is available for the bride to prepare, all with elegance and comfort at the forefront.
