Nestled in 125 acres of idyllic Kent countryside, Hever Castle was once the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, second wife of Henry VIII and mother of Elizabeth I, and is full of rich history.
The gardens at Hever Castle combine perfectly with its history to provide a wedding venue of distinction at any time of the year. One of the most magnificent areas of the gardens is the Italian Garden, which displays a splendid collection of Italian sculptures. There are breathtaking water features, including cascades, grottos, fountains, and ponds. The Rhododendron Walk, the Rose Garden, the Golden Stairs and the Blue Garden offer an unbeatable backdrop to capture those special moments.
Celebrate in style
The wedding opportunities on the estate are boundless. Whether it be the stately grandeur of the castle itself, the country house atmosphere of the Astor Wing, or the stunning lakeside location of the Italian Garden.
For a wedding in the Astor Wing, ceremonies of up to 48 seated and 12 standing take place in the Tudor Suite sitting room, surrounded by private lawns and oak panelling throughout. The Tudor Suite has unparalleled views of the castle, moat and gardens, while windows fill the rooms with light, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
