✨ Chiddingstone Castle is a dog friendly wedding venue 🐾 🤗

Would having your pet at your wedding just make the day complete?

Your dog will get tons of attention from the guests and love being part of the big day. Well behaved pets may even get to walk down the aisle with you as the official ring bearer!

If your dog is easily overstimulated or a little unhappier in crowds, it might be better to bring them along for a shorter hello after the ceremony and take them away from the crowd on a short walk for some photos with just the two of you.

However your dog is, it is always advised to have someone they feel happy with on hand to whisk them away when needed to allow you to enjoy your wedding breakfast and of course the evening party!

For more information on our venue get in touch.

Most of our couples book over a year in advance but that doesn't have to be the case! We have a few dates available in the next 6 months for up to 120 guests, with exclusive use of the castle, orangery and grounds including our marquee to accommodate the larger wedding breakfast.

Thursday 20th June, Friday 21st June, Friday 5th July.

These dates still allow a good few months for your wedding planning. If you like our venue but are considering a smaller more intimate wedding please get in touch as we have other April, May, June, July 2024 dates for weddings without the marquee in place. Our shortest timeline recorded was 2 weeks during 2020 with the lovely Duy and Serina but that was quite the exception!!

If the thought of speedy planning fills you with dread don't panic, we have later dates available too, email [email protected] for date enquiries between August 2024 to December 2026.

Drinks and Games on the lawn! Bringing in a fun element to the day. We have had crazy golf, carousels, helter skelters and even a bird of prey display over the past years of weddings here at the Castle. We wonder what 2024 will bring?!
