Venue Intelligence

Grantham, Lincolnshire

One of England's grandest houses.

Harlaxton Manor is a spectacular Jacobethan and Baroque manor begun in 1831 near Grantham in Lincolnshire, set in 300 acres, given to a single wedding on a limited number of dates a year. Couples marry in the opulent state rooms, the Great Hall, the Long Gallery, the gilded Gold Room, take drinks in the dramatic terraced gardens, and dine beneath painted and gilded ceilings.

A Ceremony Beneath Gilded Ceilings.

Couples marry in Harlaxton's opulent state rooms, an aisle laid through a chandeliered room, or beneath the painted ceiling of the Long Gallery, then take drinks on the terraces and among the Baroque gardens. The wedding breakfast is served in the Gold Room or the Long Gallery, long candlelit tables beneath gilded ceilings, and the reception carries the grandeur of the rooms into the night, for up to 120 at the ceremony, 200 seated, and 350 standing for the evening.

A Feast in the Gold Room.

The wedding breakfast is served in the state rooms, beneath gilded and painted ceilings, most spectacularly in the Gold Room or the Long Gallery: long candlelit tables and abundant florals against the carved woodwork and chandeliers. Catering is fine and seasonal, and the drinks reception spills onto the terraces and into the Baroque gardens.

A Jacobethan Manor

One of England's grandest houses, begun in 1831, a riot of pinnacles and gables in 300 acres.

The State Rooms

The Great Hall, the carved Cedar Staircase, the Long Gallery and the gilded Gold Room, for the ceremony and feast.

Terraced Baroque Gardens, a Reflecting Canal.

Harlaxton's gardens are as theatrical as its rooms: dramatic terraced Italianate and Baroque gardens with statuary, balustraded steps and a garden pavilion, and a long reflecting canal that frames the manor's Jacobethan skyline of pinnacles and gables. Set in 300 acres of Lincolnshire countryside, they give a wedding both the grandest of houses and a landscape to match, a setting that turns every photograph into something cinematic.
