You made us and all the guests feel totally spoilt, at home and relaxed all at once. It was perfect.

Mel & Alex

We wanted an intimate wedding, and when we visited The Montagu Arms, we fell in love with it. The hotel gardens were beautiful, and the location was ideal. We wanted a dog-friendly wedding venue, too, and the set-up at The Montagu Arms meant our dog could be with us for the whole day. Clara, the wedding coordinator, was great on our visit, answering all our questions and being welcoming.

The friendliness of the staff and the fact that we could have the entire hotel to ourselves. We loved the hotel and we were not disappointed. The guests really loved the food – it was a real highlight of the day. Soak in every moment and just enjoy it; the day goes by so quickly and you’ll wish you could relive it!

Holly & Chris

We found The Montagu Arms on a wedding website and fell in love with the charming building and classic English gardens. We decided to visit to see the surrounding New Forest countryside and the venue and were blown away with how quaint and pristine the area was. We loved the ponies, donkeys and other wildlife and picture-perfect vistas.

We knew this would be an ideal location in Hampshire for a wedding and would make lovely photos for keepsakes. On our visit, Clara was so welcoming and helpful, assisting with any queries we had. We also thought that for the location and the venue, the price was quite reasonable once we compared it to other venues.

We chose The Montagu Arms Hotel as our wedding venue, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision! From start to finish, the staff were attentive, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make our day truly unforgettable. A special thank you to Clara, whose tireless efforts ensured everything ran seamlessly. If you’re searching for an intimate, charming venue for your big day, we wholeheartedly recommend The Montagu Arms Hotel.

FAQs
Will there be someone to look after us on the day?

We provide a Master of Ceremonies who will be with you on your wedding day to ensure everyone is in the right place at the right time. The Master of Ceremonies will take care of all your table arrangements and decorations, announce you at the wedding breakfast and announce the speeches. They will also be responsible for cake cutting, the first dance, and taking care of anything you need during the day, so you won't need to worry about anything. In the lead-up to the day, our Wedding Coordinator will be on hand to help with all the arrangements, recommend local suppliers, and ensure you have everything you need.

Can we have a small wedding?

Yes, we have a selection of packages for small and intimate weddings, based on 4 -32 people. A small wedding doesn't mean compromising on style and luxury. Our intimate wedding packages incorporate a 3-7 course banquet, fine wine pairing, personalised floral designs and much more.

What should we do if it's raining?

The Montagu Arms has plenty of indoor space, so drinks and canapés can be served in our cosy oak-panelled lounge or conservatory if it rains. Photographs can be taken in front of the fireplaces, grandfather clock, on the oak staircase or in the Terrace Restaurant with views over the garden.
