Getting Married at Deer Park:

Yes. When you choose Deer Park, the estate is exclusively yours for your wedding day. That means you'll enjoy complete privacy with your family and friends, without sharing the venue with another wedding or members of the public. From your ceremony through to your evening celebrations, the entire experience is dedicated to you. 

Many couples book between 12 and 24 months in advance, particularly for popular spring and summer weekends. However, if you're planning a midweek celebration, winter wedding or have a shorter timescale, it's always worth getting in touch as we may still have availability. 

Our weddings team can advise on availability and guide you through the booking process. Depending on the package or promotion, some offers may require immediate confirmation, so we'll always explain the options available to you. 

Just one. Your wedding is our only wedding that day, allowing our entire team to focus solely on creating an exceptional experience for you and your guests.
