Full Description
At Fawsley we know that every wedding is unique which is why we only host one wedding a day with an exclusive venue for you and your guests in Knightley Court. This flexible setting was designed with your wedding in mind and as well as offering gorgeous rooms for each stage of your day it also includes a 29 seater cinema and outdoor space for drinks, dining and ceremonies!
Our main house is rich in romantic history which houses the magnificent Tudor Great Hall and our light and airy Victorian Salvin Suite, both of which can be added to your Knightley Court venue hire to enhance your day or are included with full exclusive use of Fawsley Hall.
Having the option of a different space for each element of your day, all providing equally stunning backdrops for photographs, means no need for redressing of rooms and no need to worry about the weather in the lead up to your special day!
Creativity and flavour are two of our passions. All menus are created and freshly prepared by our own Chefs who understand that your wedding is more than just a day. They will go the extra mile to ensure your personal tastes or memories are reflected in your dishes whether your style is sharing boards, dessert tables, retro or themed evening food, or something more classic and timeless.
All aspects of your day can easily be complemented with your beverage selection, from a Champagne reception to a Gin, Rum or Cocktail bar. A ‘pub’ priced private bar is yours for the evening and corkage is available.
You will have one specialist team to help shape your day, from planing a multi-day celebration to applying the finishing touches to your wedding rooms whilst you concentrate on getting ready.
You will also have a minimum of 8 bedrooms and a complimentary Feature room guaranteed for your use.
We are a short walk from the parish church, have bespoke pricing to include main house settings, offer full exclusive use of Fawsley Hall and can accommodate a Marquee for up to 440 guests.

All of my plans & visions executed to perfection
I wanted to share with you details of our amazing wedding that we had on the 14th February 2020 at Fawsley Hall. I cannot express how professional and amazing all of the staff were throughout the time we were there. The wedding ceremony was relaxed and ran incredibly smoothly and I credit that to the confidence I had in the staff that worked with me to organise and plan the day. A special thank you must go to Allan who was pivotal to the running of the day and ensured all of my plans and visions were executed to perfection. We had a number of food allergies and preferences and they were all catered for incredibly well. We had the lamb for our wedding breakfast and had lots of comments from guests on how amazing it was, please can you pass on our thanks to the chef! The staff were incredible throughout our short stay there, they were attentive, friendly and professional and are a credit to your company. It has also prompted us to come back to Fawsley as often as we can in the future and will highly recommend your venue for weddings to friends and family in the future.

Thankyou so much for everything, we both had the best day and night it was amazing!
All of the team were fantastic we can't fault you at all!
thank you for all your hard work. Everything from setting up to little things like the candles.
It was a fantastic day and Alan and his team work tirelessly all day. Special mention must go to Cameron behind the bar, he was fantastic and made an impression on many guests for his great bar work and banter.

FAQ
(10)
Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?
Each and every wedding is special to us in its own way, we can't pick a favourite!
We have had some amazing themed weddings and some really fun ones as well, such as a gorgeous Winter Wonderland with Santa and his reindeers and a wedding which had a Tipi Marquee, relaxed seating, sharing boards and then a famous band playing on the Front Lawn in the evening!
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
It's your day! Do what you want to do to reflect your story, your journey together and your personalities & styles. Ask all the questions you need to to make sure you get this. When choosing a venue to match your vision it is easy to get caught up in beautiful pictures but take time to consider how your fantastic ideas will translate in all possible weather conditions and take a moment to stand and listen. Will outdoor spaces be as tranquil as they look?
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
Individual place cards personalised with the couples favorite photograph of the guest. We understand the care and time taken for the right photo to be chosen for each and every guest. This really reflected the love & joy of the day and how every guest meant so much to the couple!
Describe your venue in 5 adjectives.
Unforgettable, Picturesque, Flexible, Friendly, Specialist
Where’s the best photo spot at your venue?
There are too many to choose from! We are so lucky to have a naturally stunning venue with unique features, panoramic parkland & lake views and a pretty garden featuring an elegantly sweeping stone staircase.
Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at your venue?
Yes
What’s your favourite canapé?
Mini Cottage Pie (yum yum!)
What’s your favourite midnight treat?
Wow, this is hard but we would have to say; Sweet-Smores & Savoury-Fried chicken wings!
What is your venue's most unique feature?
We really like the fact that our flexible setting lends itself perfectly to all styles of wedding and that is really hard to find in a venue but our 29 seated cinema, which is part of the Knightley Court wedding venue, is really special and great for the kids in the evening!
What part of your business are you most proud of?
How hard the team at Fawsley work to ensure that your wedding day is the best wedding day!
