Ask any young girl where she wants to get married and chances are the majority will enthusiastically shout “a Castle!”

Well, you might think this is the stuff of dreams, but it could very easily be a reality with the amazing and reasonably priced wedding venue Farnham Castle.

The stunning 12^th Century Farnham Castle, inhabited continually for over 900 years, is one of the oldest buildings in Southern England!

Based as the name suggests in Farnham, Surrey Farnham Castle was historically home to the Bishops of Winchester, but today has been adapted to meet the very different needs of a contemporary Hotel and brides (and grooms!).

Less than an hour from London and its main airports, Gatwick and Heathrow, Farnham Castle is located in Surrey, and enjoys fantastic views over the very picturesque town of Farnham including the beautiful St. Andrews Church.

The main attraction for many when considering Farnham Castle as a wedding venue would be their fabulous 13^th century Great Hall. This Great Hall is one of the main reasons that Farnham Castle is such a sought after wedding venue!

The Great Hall is a well sized room, seating up to 140, with a (very) high ceiling and balcony views ideal for photography! The room also benefits from stunning stained glass windows, a beautiful chandelier, a fireplace and countless large paintings which really compliment this fabulous reception setting and help to create a first class atmosphere!

Atmosphere and character are two things that Farnham Castle has in abundance.
Another is the sheer number of opportunities for unforgettable wedding photographs!
From the ancient stone staircases and walls, to the stunning Chapel, superb balconies or the south facing lawn with views across Farnham, you are spoilt for choice here!

Farnham Castle actually benefits from 5 acres of cultivated gardens and always immaculately maintained lawns.
If the Great Hall is a little grand for your tastes (or budget) Farnham Castle also offers a range of other rooms to cater for more intimate events.

For those with deeper pockets and grand ideas, it is also possible to organise exclusive use of the Castle offering the full blown fairytale experience!
In order to allow your wedding party to continue long into the night, Farnham Castle has good accommodation on offer with 32 bedrooms, including doubles, singles and family rooms each benefiting from en suite facilities and views over the castle grounds!

To satisfy your morning after needs, all of your guests are offered a choice of a continental or (my personal choice…) a full English breakfast!

Farnham Castle has a very experienced events team that are with you during the planning, helping you to make decisions on things you probably haven’t even considered yet and will also be on hand to ensure that everything is perfect on your big day! A strong benefit that should not be overlooked!

This is one wedding venue that has too many positive things to list and we know it well, Laura actually grew up no more than 5minutes from this fabulous Castle.

If that little girl dreaming of a wedding in a Castle lives on in you, or if you know someone who you know is still a dreamer, then definitely look at Farnham Castle and see if it’s the wedding venue you’ve been looking for!
