Civil CeremonieS Stonehouse Court offers a full range of options from intimate civil ceremonies to large exclusive-use weddings or a marquee on the lawns. There are a selection of suites in the main Manor House for you to hold your ceremony, as well as the option of our newly-refurbished, boutique wedding suite which also holds the option of an Open-Air ceremony.

It has a contemporary, stylish interior, is totally self-contained and exclusively yours for the entire day. This suite can hold up to 120 guests for the ceremony.

Located in the private gardens of the Caroline suite, you can make your vows in the picturesque gardens and the fresh, open air. For up to 120 guests, it’s the perfect setting for a ceremony held outdoors.
Arundel Suite The elegant Arundel Suite has high ceilings and bare wooden beams, in keeping with the old Manor House building, perfect for setting the scene for a truly magical day.

Situated right at the bottom of the Manor House lawn, on the edge of the canal waterway, St Cyr’s church will meet all of your expectations for a beautiful, traditional church wedding, without the hassle of having to transport your guests to the reception.
Reception Following your ceremony, your dedicated co-ordinator on the day will lead you and your guests into your drinks reception. This can be held either in the historic lounge in the Manor with an original Cotswold Stone Fireplace, private contemporary bar in our Caroline Suite or outside onto one of our beautiful garden terraces.

Seating up to 50 guests, the Arundel Suite is located in the Manor House with high ceilings, bare wooden beams and a big bay window overlooking the landscaped gardens & canal waterway. Our newly-refurbished Caroline Suite can seat up to 120 guests for your Wedding Breakfast and has floor to ceiling glass doors on one side so it can open out onto your private garden and terrace.

I am lucky enough to indulge my true love of photography by being a wedding photographer. To me a wedding day is one of the most special moments in time and capturing this day is a responsibility that I thrive on. To share this amazing day with two people, their family and closest friends, gives me a great deal of pleasure and to know that I am providing them with their future memories of their day makes it a very enjoyable and rewarding profession. To ensure I do this to the full, I do not limit my time on the day. I will be with you when you want me to start and when you want me to finish. In other words, total commitment to you and your day. I regularly work in the UK, France, Spain and Italy. I very much look forward to working with you, wherever you are getting married.
