Their stories
Every wedding tells a story
Six couples, six celebrations, one estate. Here's how they made Willowmere their own.
Charlotte & James
July 2025 · 130 guests · The Estate Wedding
Summer
"The Orangery took our breath away the first time we visited. On our wedding day, with the afternoon sun pouring through the glass, it was even more magical than we imagined."
Favourite moment:
Stepping onto the Terrace after the ceremony to see all our guests with champagne, the lake shimmering behind them.
Sophie & Oliver
October 2025 · 85 guests · The Garden Wedding
Autumn
"We wanted something intimate, and the Walled Garden in October was stunning — the autumn leaves, the warmth of the fairy lights. Our coordinator Lucy thought of details we hadn’t even considered."
Favourite moment:
Our first dance in the Great Hall with all the candles lit — it felt like something from a film.
Emma & Will
December 2024 · 100 guests · The Estate Wedding
Winter
"Everyone told us a winter wedding would be cold and grey. Instead we got roaring fires, candlelight everywhere, and the most incredible sunset over the frosty parkland."
Favourite moment:
Walking into the Great Hall and seeing it dressed with hundreds of candles and winter foliage — pure magic.
Hannah & Ravi
April 2025 · 140 guests · The Grand Wedding
Spring
"Willowmere gave us the space to blend both our cultures beautifully. The team were so open to our ideas and helped us create a day that was entirely us."
Favourite moment:
The fireworks over the lake at the end of the night. Guests are still talking about it months later.
Lucy & Tom
August 2025 · 60 guests · The Garden Wedding
Summer
"We wanted a small, relaxed celebration and the Walled Garden was exactly right. Pizza in the evening, dancing under the stars — it was perfect."
Favourite moment:
Having our ceremony outside with just our closest family and friends, then hearing the string quartet play our song.
Victoria & Daniel
June 2025 · 150 guests · The Grand Wedding
Summer
"From the rehearsal dinner to the Sunday brunch, the entire weekend was flawless. Willowmere felt like our own private country house for the weekend."
Favourite moment:
Coming down to breakfast the morning after and finding all our favourite people already there, reliving the night before.
