Or, if you love the idea of an outdoor ceremony without worrying about the weather then The Orchard’ s water terrace is ideal. The outdoor yet sheltered ceremony space ideal for any season. With fairy lights, heaters, and cosy blankets, it’ s perfect for an intimate evening ceremony too.
The latest addition to The Orchard’ s ceremony spaces is its Secret Garden, where doors open onto an aisle adorned with fairy lights, leading to breathtaking views of the Kent countryside. www. orchardsuite. co. uk
Inn on the Lake Nestled on the picturesque edge of three lakes and surrounded by enchanting woodlands, the Inn on the Lake is located near to Gravesend and offers couples the option to exchange vows and marry outdoors under its gazebo, overlooking the largest lake.
The stunning outside space is also ideal for having a relaxed BBQ on the lakeside terrace, enjoying games in the gardens
and watching fireworks cascade above the venue’ s magnificent 30-foot fountain. www. innonlake. co. uk
The Spa Hotel Set in 14 acres of stunning grounds, The Spa Hotel is an 18th century mansion in Tunbridge Wells, that’ s known for providing modern and luxurious weddings.
Both the interior and exterior of this venue are stunning, but the gardens really are something to be admired – and what better way to enjoy them than to say your vows in them?
Providing a charming alternative to a gazebo, The Spa Hotel’ s Spa Temple is situated within the landscaped gardens overlooking the lakes and hillside, and it’ s licensed for civil ceremonies too. Worried about the weather? Don’ t fear – depending on the size of your guest list, the hotel has three dedicated spaces where you can tie the knot indoors. www. spahotel. co. uk
