Luxury winter weddings at Berkeley Castle

Winter Wedding Venue in the Cotswolds

 

Arrive to your fairy-tale winter wedding at Berkeley Castle through your own private gates to frosty grounds and the magnificent medieval fortress rising above.

Berkeley Castle is the perfect wedding venue, in the UK, for winter weddings with its beautiful interior and flawless backdrop to your wedding day, creating wonderful memories and photos which you will treasure for the rest of your lives.

Say "I do" in the intimate Long Drawing Room or the grand Great Hall. Or if you are looking to be wed in a church then the beautiful St Mary's is a stones throw away from the Castle.

Enjoy warming drinks by roaring fires in the romantic drawing rooms before gathering all your closest family and friends into the Great Hall for a magnificent Wedding Breakfast.

The possibilities are endless in the wintry night as the Great Hall is transformed into a spectacularly lit and ambience-filled party for you to dance the night away. 

And even on a crisp winter’s night, during the colder months, you and your wedding guests can be snuggled up within minutes in your home from home weekend accommodation, all set within the Berkeley Estate.

Berkeley Castle, A Christmas Wedding Venue

At Berkeley Castle, we hold weddings all year round, with Christmas being a popular time of year for people to tie the knot. We decorate the castle during December, to get into the festive spirit.

The Great Hall has a traditional floor to ceiling Christmas tree and there are Christmas trees in both drawing rooms all with twinkling lights and decorations.  

We love working with couples to design the perfect winter wonderland wedding whether that be creating flawless festive styling or bringing in fun festive elements to delight & surprise. We can decorate areas of the castle you wish to use during your wedding day. Popular choices are candles, white winter themes and also pine and forest themes. We can discuss specific requirements, to ensure we create the perfect Christmas wedding tailored exactly for you.

Christmas wedding receptions

Our Christmas wedding receptions can also be designed to be a true winter wonderland and we can provide festive Christmas backdrops from Christmas trees to log fires, creating the perfect photo opportunities for bride and groom and guests in the evening of their special day.

The catering options during the Christmas and winter period may be a bit more festive. At Berkeley Castle we can provide guests with festive drinks and food options, from mince pies and mulled wine to a warm Christmas pudding and eggnog.
