Set within 163 acres of Surrey countryside, we can offer you something truly special. Just 12 miles from central London, Addington Palace blends the charm of a countryside escape with the ease of a city location, making it one of the most unique outdoor wedding venues in the South East.
Celebrate in the Heart of Nature
One of the biggest draws of Addington Palace is its beautiful grounds. You’re not limited to just one outdoor space – there’s flexibility to choose the perfect spot for your ceremony or reception.
The South Lawn is a popular choice for outdoor ceremonies. With the palace behind you and sweeping views ahead, it’s a picturesque setting that feels both grand and romantic. Whether you’re planning a large gathering or an intimate ceremony, the space can be styled exactly as you like, from floral arches and aisle runners to personalised seating layouts.
For a more relaxed feel, the palace’s stone terrace offers a unique alternative. Surrounded by manicured gardens, it’s ideal for a small outdoor ceremony or a drinks reception under the sun.
Outdoor Receptions with a Personal Touch
Outdoor receptions at Addington Palace are just as flexible. Whether you’d like a summer garden party, a laid-back barbecue, or a formal sit-down dinner in the open air, there’s plenty of space to create a celebration that feels like you.
The lawns and terrace areas are yours to make your own, and the events team is on hand to help coordinate the details, whether that’s lighting, layout, or catering arrangements. It’s your day, your way.
Picture-Perfect Backdrops
Weddings at Addington Palace come with no shortage of photo opportunities. The gardens bloom beautifully in spring and summer, while the historic façade of the palace offers an elegant backdrop all year round.
Outdoor weddings mean you get to enjoy the best of natural light for your photos, making those moments all the more memorable. Whether you’re taking romantic portraits under the trees or capturing laughter-filled group shots on the lawn, it’s a setting that shines in every season.
