Information For Crayke Manor

Essentially, Crayke Manor is a DIY venue. You get to create the wedding exactly how you dreamed it to be, using one of the most spectacular, historical and unique platforms to stage it on.

If you've decided to take to take a bit more control over exactly how you want your wedding to be, rather than picking from a package from a limited menu, then Crayke Manor might be what you're looking for. We don't ask you to choose anything. You just decide, in your own time and limited only by your imagination, how you want your wedding to play-out and be enjoyed by your family and friends. Once the Manor is booked, we don't get involved. We let you enjoy the personal process, because it is incredibly personal, of picking your caterers, how you want to dress the Dutch Barn, what kind of drinks or Bar service you want etc. What we provide is the infrastructure, if you like; the hardware - and you add the software. When booking the Manor for a wedding, you have exclusive access to the Manor (sleeps 16), the Gardens and Grounds and the Stabled Dutch Barn. We have all the necessary tables and chairs (lovely rustic trestles to complement the barn) to seat 180 x guests but the Barn could accommodate approx. 250 x guests if not all seated. We offer a 3 x day package from May through to September inclusive. There's also a 2 x day package for most of the remaining months but if you have more than 50 or so guests, we would always recommend the 3 x days as a minimum. You want to be able to enjoy the process of getting the venue ready, dressing the barn, enjoying what the Manor and Grounds have to offer, rather than feeling rushed and pressured. The 3 x day package costs £9,000 and the 2 x day package is £7,500. Extras include the two additional cottages that can sleep 14 more guests, a wedding service fee, should you wish to hold a wedding service at the Manor and some additional optional extras - details on request.

Top Wedding Tips

There's only so much planning one can do. What's more important is for the two of you to be able to enjoy this special day.

When planning, always go with your heart. You won't be able to please everyone but you can please yourself. This is your special day - don't forget.

Make the wedding an occasion for everyone to get to know new friends and family members. Don't squeeze it into a day - make a short break out of it. We all need one!

A stunning wedding venue
We got married at Crayke Manor in May this year and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The grounds are just stunning, and the house itself is clean, comfortable, spotless and comfortably slept 18 of us. It is the perfect place for a getaway with friends or a DIY wedding. The barn can be transformed in any way you like using your own suppliers, and you have the choice of getting married in the barn or outside on the lawn. Sharon was super helpful, made the whole thing feel very relaxed and responded to our queries very quickly, as did Justin
