Setting
The tree-lined driveway welcomes you into this romantic landscape, immediately slowing your pace and relaxing your mind. Surrounded by fields, the lodge, the long barn, and the safari tent are all perched above the river Teme and set against a backdrop of dark green woodlands.
The team behind Wilde Lodge wanted to create a place where you could enjoy your celebrations. Mid-week weddings span two nights and weekends over three, so you can sink into the surroundings and enjoy the peace and time to be together.
The lodge is hired to you, and then you’re free to plan your wedding celebrations. To ensure everything runs smoothly, a list of recommended suppliers familiar with the site and used over the past eight years is provided. The lodge offers a comprehensive wedding guide that simplifies planning, allowing couples to rely on a tried-and-tested resource.
Wilde Lodge is more than just a venue; it’s a home for you and your guests during your wedding celebrations. You can take leisurely strolls to your own private river, enjoy games on the expansive lawn, and capture stunning photos against the dramatic hillside backdrop. As the day turns to dusk, gather around the fire pit to toast marshmallows and share stories. It’s a space that fosters a sense of community and warmth, making your wedding day truly unforgettable.
Even though the closest town, Knighton, is only a 10-minute drive away, the beautiful estate that Wilde Lodge sits on gives you a peaceful and private place to hold your celebration and will feel truly exclusive.
Ceremony
The Long Barn
Licensed for wedding ceremonies, the barn is a magical, rustic, and intimate space that can be used throughout your stay. It can be used for intimate family meals, your wedding ceremony, or as a dance floor. Couples have used it as a games barn throughout the weekend, a specialist bar area, a chill-out space, or somewhere to put the hot tubs!
The capacity is:
The Open Barn
A huge open sided barn that can take up to 120 guests. With hay bale seating and a breathtaking view of the lodge and woodlands beyond.
This is a great ceremony space, but it can also be used for dancing, an outdoor bar area or just somewhere to chill out and take it all in.
Reception
The Wilde Safari Tent
And for even more entertaining space, opposite the Long Barn is the bespoke safari tent.
Nestled within the barn walls is their huge Safari tent, offering a blank canvas that allows you to make your special day your own with space for 120 guests for sit-down meals and 150 guests standing in a bar or dance area. There is also a spectacular 16ft solid oak bar.
