We also host outdoor ceremonies on our East Lawn, overlooking our White Rose Garden, and if you’d like a Religious Ceremony at Farnham Castle we offer two beautiful Chapels from very different architectural periods.

Best day of our lives!
We just wanted to say a huge thank you for making our wedding the best day of our lives. Everything was so perfect - the food, the drinks, the atmosphere and the service! Multiple guests mentioned to us how friendly the staff were, and how incredible the venue was. We appreciate that there were so many different parts to the day but it all went so smoothly and that was all down to you guys. Jenna - when your wedding coordinator changes a few months before, it can be a little worrying. But honestly, we could not have felt in safer hands with you. Your attention to detail is second to none and you were such a calming presence on the day too! Thank you so much again, we would recommend Farnham Castle to anybody.

Perfect day
It was the most amazing day and we are so grateful to you and the team. You were just fabulous and we can’t thank you enough. In particular, I felt so at ease in the run up to the day because I knew no question was too small to ask. I felt listened to with my plans and you gave really good advice based on past experiences at the venue. Your professionalism all day was incredible and your stamina is insane! Pete wanted to say that you were unbelievable under pressure and we didn’t notice any stresses (even though they were no doubt there). I run events for a living so to give up control to someone else is challenging but I couldn’t have had a more perfect person support us - thank you. Thank you again because it was honestly the most perfect day.

Stunning
The venue is absolutely stunning, with so many choices for ceremony locations and endless photo opportunities. Our guests all complimented the quality of the food and loved the espresso martinis we served after dinner.
We loved that so many of our family and friends could stay at the venue with us and the breakfast the next morning was great. The getting ready rooms for both the bride and groom were fantastic.
Even with some light rain, the venue ensured we could have our wedding outside in the rose garden, which was picture-perfect, with the old keep in the background of our photos.
Our coordinator Gema was incredible at every step of the planning process and was calm, organised and professional on the day.
We would definitely recommend Farnham Castle to other couples getting married in Surrey!

Dream Venue
Farnham Castle was a dream venue! As soon as we looked around we knew it was for us, and the friendliness of the staff and the help they provided us with planning and on the day was second to none. So many of our guests have since told us it was the best wedding they have ever been to - this is surely down to the relaxed and professional staff at Farnham. Nothing was too much trouble and on the day they ensured everything went off without a hitch (and if there were any, they made sure we never knew!) A special mention to Laura who looked after us the whole way through and made sure the day ran smoothly. A stunning venue, fantastic staff, and the best day ever was had by all.

We cannot recommend Farnham Castle enough...
From our first visit to Farnham we knew that this was the wedding venue for us. Gema who showed us around was amazing, informative and so welcoming! We were then lucky enough to have Laura as our wedding coordinator who was just a dream! She was such a calming presence on the day and couldn’t do enough for us.
All of the staff were incredible and everything was completely perfect. All of our guests were stunned by the venue and highly praised the food.
We cannot recommend Farnham Castle enough, it was everything we wished for and more!

Fairytale Venue
We could not have been happier with our wedding at Farnham Castle. From the offset, the team were communicative and helpful and 6 months before our wedding we were assigned our wedding organiser, Gema who was simply incredible! Gema was always available to answer our many questions whether about the larger or finer details, which made us feel surprisingly relaxed in the lead up to the wedding.

Having quite complex dietary requirements, I knew straight away when I saw the food options that we would be in safe hands. At both the complimentary food tasting event and afterwards, Chef Simon went through in great detail with us all our food choices and we were so happy with how delicious it all tasted on the day and the canapes in particular got demolished almost immediately! We also opted for their newer dessert bar option which was a super fun and relaxed way to finish the meal.

There is no doubt that Farnham Castle is a stunning venue but what sets it apart from other places are the incredible staff, and attention to detail that they put into every aspect of your day. We would highly recommend Farnham Castle and it truly was a fairytale wedding!

Magical wedding venue
Farnham Castle is a truly magical wedding venue, offering a stunning setting, elegant decor, and outstanding food. The castle's historic charm provides a fairy-tale backdrop for the wedding day I’ve always dreamed of. The food and drink were exquisite, and the team went above and beyond to recreate a favourite dish of ours, which added a personal touch and received numerous compliments. The team’s hospitality made the entire experience unforgettable for us and our guests – with a highlight being a late-night pizza waiting for us in the honeymoon suite! Our coordinator, Gema, was fabulous and put us (and the Mother of the Bride) at ease on the lead up! We are truly grateful for making our wedding day so special and could not recommend Farnham Castle more.
