Say ‘I do’ in The Great Hall (complete with exposed beams and stunning inglenook fireplace) or in the Coach House (perfect for large weddings), both of which are located in the Tower. You can also hold an outdoor ceremony in a choice of two settings within the grounds.
Whilst you and your partner are being photographed embracing by the two lakes, strolling alongside the babbling brook and laughing hand in hand in the woods, your guests can enjoy canapes and games on the croquet lawn (located in the inner courtyard).
Enjoy a delicious wedding breakfast in either of the aforementioned rooms, then hop onto the contemporary dance floor in the converted cellar to throw those impressive shapes late into the evening. Leez Priory offer their own DJ and disco until midnight as well as a fully staffed bar.
