Venue hire

Congratulations on your engagement. Now you’ve got the ring, it’s time to find your dream venue. We have three stunning wedding venues in Sussex. All are licensed for weddings and civil ceremonies.

Lewes Castle	Anne of Cleves House	Michelham Priory
Say ‘I do’ at this 1,000-year-old romantic ruin. One of the region’s few outdoor wedding venues, you can exchange your vows in the sunshine and treat your guests to panoramic views of Sussex countryside.	Tie the knot under exposed beams and fairy lights in this charming timber-framed medieval house. An intimate venue steeped in history, it’s ideal for smaller weddings that want the wow factor.	Dance the night away under bunting and beams in our spectacular Elizabethan Great Barn. Set on its own private island, this venue has a moat and romantic waterside gardens.
