Waddesdon Estate, Buckinghamshire HP18

Waddesdon Estate was created for Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild in the 19th century to house his collection of paintings, furniture and art. The expanded 6,000-acre site features an 18th-century French-style chateau, wine cellar and a unique selection of stunning event & meeting spaces.

You and your guests can enjoy a taste of that privileged lifestyle: superlative food, excellent wines and friendly, professional service with absolute exclusivity guaranteed.

The Manor House & Gardens. For the select few, a wedding ceremony within the manor house is now a possibility. Exchange your vows amidst the truly heart-stopping splendour of the White Drawing Room, its huge picture windows overlooking the spectacular Victorian Parterre and rolling landscape beyond. For small groups, the elegant Blue Dining Room is the perfect juxtaposition with its traditional features and iconic Ingo Maurer contemporary chandelier. For larger numbers the glorious gardens can accommodate a temporary structure.
