Manor weddings:

The Dairy in Waddesdon Manor is presently being used by many for memorable weddings. The romantic backdrop offered by the Diary is the perfect romantic environment for a wedding to take place. The Dairy is situated within the glorious greens of the Manor gardens, and it is a beautiful private building. The Waddesdon Estate was created for Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild in the 19th Century and it has been the country retreat for the family for over 100 years.

The Dairy provides a nostalgic charm to the guests and a taste of the privileged lifestyle, as they would enjoy the most delicious food, excellent wines, and the warmth and charm of a perfect location for a wedding to take place. The Dairy sits within a tranquil atmosphere by the waterside amidst the wonderful greenery of the Manor gardens. The Dairy provides you with exclusive environment, rooms which have been designed elegantly with roaring log fires burning in every room in the winter. A wide terrace having two pavilions projects into the lake and this makes a perfect place to relax and have summer drinks under the shade. No matter which season it is, the Dairy offers the most romantic backdrop all the year round.

The largest room in the Dairy is called the ‘West Hall’. This room has a ‘tall vaulted ceiling’ having two huge open fireplaces, with the door in the room opening out directly on to the terrace. This hall is used as a dining room for the guests in which maximum of 110 people can be accommodated, and has 10 round tables. The hall overlooks the Wintergarden, and with its classical conservatory type structure, and all these presents a perfect atmosphere for wedding ceremonies.

The Pavilions and the terrace are situated at the West side of the Dairy, and the long terrace overlooks the lake. This terrace is aptly called the ‘Lake Terrace’. The lake is the home of extensive collection of waterfowl. The Manor has two Pavilions, and both project into the lake, making them an ideal place to have summer drinks as you relax.

Waddesdon Manor is managed by the National Trust in the UK, and is considered to be a National Trust property which comes under the cultural and historic importance to the nation, containing valuable works of art. When the Manor is let out for weddings, it is mandatory that you get a public liability insurance cover which has a minimum value of £2m. The insurance cover is arranged by the Manor management, and you would be required to carry a copy of the cover when you visit the Manor for your wedding planning meeting.
