We had the most incredible wedding day at Stowe. Molly and the team were fantastic, helping us through every step and seeing her there on the day gave me complete peace of mind.

Just wonderful
We had the best experience with the Stowe wedding team. Beth and the team were extremely helpful from start to finish. I so enjoyed wedding planning and especially working with Beth; her help was second to none and I couldn’t have done it all without her. I could not have chosen a better venue either. Stowe House is simply breathtaking and wonderful. All our friends and family say it was the best wedding they’ve been to! Wish I could do it all again!!

Stowe House is an incredible wedding venue.
Stowe House is an incredible wedding venue. The architecture is stunning throughout, and the views across the lawn to the lake are breathtaking. The layout of the venue's rooms works perfectly for weddings, and it could comfortably accommodate over 200 guests. The Event Manager who was our primary contact throughout was excellent. Very responsive, flexible and very easy to get on with. We had a few non-standard requests, and they always found a way to accommodate us. I would highly recommend Stowe House to anyone looking for a magical wedding, and a truly unforgettable day.

Describe the best wedding that happened at Stowe House?

One of our favourites was this Summer, the couple introduced a lot of unique touches to the day. Post dinner they served espresso martinis on the South Portico overlooking the National Trust grounds once they were closed, they had a DJ set up so guests could see the sun setting whilst enjoying the music and the cocktails.
