Wickham House – Exclusive Georgian Elegance and Berkshire Wedding Venue

Now, I should probably admit a little bit of geographical bias right at the start of this feature but, as a Berkshire girl myself, I am incredibly happy to be able to sing the praises of a new and altogether gorgeous venue right in here in the idyllic Berkshire countryside. However, I have no doubt that as you join me to take a peek at this delightful wedding venue that is opening its doors to weddings for the first time, you’ll love it as much as I do. So, without further ado, let’s welcome Wickham House

Set in 52 acres of delightful grounds, Wickham House is a super luxurious late 18th Century Grade II Listed Georgian manor house that’s been lovingly transformed into an exclusive-use wedding venue.

In addition to the main house, you’ll find a charming church and a newly built oak-framed barn not to mention the simply glorious gardens plus an outdoor pavilion and pool. If you’re dreaming of a venue that blends heritage with contemporary comfort, you’ll adore Wickham House.

For religious ceremonies, the beautifully quaint church is just a few steps from the house and this 12th Century gem seats up to 200 guests – keep an eye open for the famous papier-mâché elephants that were acquired in Paris in 1862!

For civil ceremonies, you can choose the new Barn (seating 140 guests) or you can make the most of the gorgeous surroundings with an outdoor ceremony for up to 190 guests in the stunning Walled Garden – I’m already dreaming of summer drinks receptions in this enchanting setting.

There’s space for a marquee for your reception at one of the best sites on the estate, overlooking the Downs on one side and the memorable main façade of Wickham House on the other. Just imagine the photographic opportunities!

Your guests will most certainly be wonderfully spoiled at Wickham House and the venue’s partnership with Real Cooking, one of Berkshire’s best caterers, will mean your wedding menu is one to remember. Exquisite food is certainly at the heart of the Wickham House experience and ahead of the big day, you can host an intimate rehearsal dinner in the Barn to really start your celebrations in style.
