The Setting
The Gardens is a breathtaking English country garden wedding venue located in the quaint village of Yalding in Kent, between Maidstone (7 miles) and Tunbridge Wells (11 miles). It’s around 40 miles from London, roughly an hour’s drive through rolling fields and picturesque countryside.
The Gardens is a horticultural masterpiece, with 12 acres of grounds divided into 16 landscaped gardens, each with its own unique theme and style for your exclusive use. You’ll enjoy endless photo opportunities; from tumbling vines and whimsical forests to their grand Victorian greenhouse donated by Prince Charles.
The Vibe
Exclusively yours for your wedding, you will enjoy a choice of three stunning ceremony locations. From the wooden gazebo with panoramic garden views to their two indoor ceremony areas in the barn, create your dream day with expert support every step of the way.
The bespoke Nordic tipis adjoining the barn provide the perfect location for your unforgettable wedding breakfast. Draped in fairylights and warmed with fire pits, you’ll enjoy an exceptional, locally sourced menu designed in partnership with their talented in-house catering team. As the sun sets and The Gardens transforms into a twilight oasis with endless festoon lights, you can dance the night away in the barn with your guests.
You’ll be supported by a dedicated wedding coordinator who will be by your side throughout your planning journey, and you’ll also enjoy access to our exclusive online wedding planning tool that’s dedicated to reducing time-consuming wedmin.
