    Weddings at Blandford Manor are most appreciated by the more mature couples looking for a memorable occasion in beautiful surroundings where peace and tranquility, first class food and service outweigh the need for the more traditional disco themed events. Blandford Manor specialise in daytime weddings.

    This is the perfect venue for friends and family to relax and chat and to really get to know each other.

    Their gardens offer a wide selection of backdrops ranging from the Azalea dell to the rock garden, the water features and wonderful antique style bridges with their glimmering  reflections, to the raw nature of savannah grass. In any season there is always more than one perfect place to capture that memorable shot.

    They have a gazebo draped in flowing white cotton which provides the ideal conditions for the wedding ceremony, with your guests all able to get close to the action sitting on three sides, rather than in the rather traditional chapel seating.

    Your wedding reception can take place outdoors if you wish or indoors if you prefer, both options are available. Outdoor weddings are particularly relevant for people wishing to keep it simple, while indoor weddings are chosen by those wishing to decorate the venue a little more and to have complete privacy.
