Choosing a venue for your marquee wedding can be so much fun. From grand, characterful countryside homes to idyllic National Park gardens, Sussex has dozens of beautiful venues to choose from. Read on to discover four of Sussex’s top marquee wedding venues.

Lordington Park

Nestled in the heart of the South Downs National Park in Chichester, West Sussex, encased in vibrant greenery and lush rolling countryside, is Lordington Park, an idyllic private manor house set in 30 acres of stunning parkland. These large, well-maintained lawned areas make this an excellent choice for a marquee wedding, with plenty of space to set up your perfect marquee and a stunning landscape to surround it.

Lordington Park also operates as a luxury boutique hotel with 14 ensuite rooms, giving you the option to stay at this illustrious venue around the time of your wedding with a selection of your closest family and friends.

Northfields House

Northfields House is a warm and inviting Edwardian country home situated between Chichester and Arundel in West Sussex. Set in 5 acres of vivid, neatly pruned floral gardens and surrounded by exquisite Edwardian architecture, Northfields House is an excellent venue option for a marquee wedding surrounded by nature and luxury.

If you would also like to accommodate your wedding party onsite, Northfields House sleeps up to 26 guests over 14 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. The choice of whether to opt for the venue’s part catered or fully catered offering, or to self-cater, is entirely your own.

Glynde Place

Situated at the top of the quaint village of Glynde in Lewes, East Sussex, Glynde Place is a stunning Elizabethan manor house offering unparalleled views of the South Downs National Park. This charming corner of Sussex countryside is perfectly suited for an idyllic marquee wedding.

Couples can choose to hold both their ceremony and reception in the marquee or opt to hold their ceremony indoors. The Palladian-style St Mary’s Church is available for religious ceremonies or, alternatively, a civil ceremony can be held within the historic house itself.

West Dean Gardens

These historic and enchanting botanical gardens are the perfect picturesque backdrop for a majestic marquee wedding. The vibrant floral gardens and gorgeous countryside scenery of West Dean Gardens combine to create a breathtaking and romantic wedding venue. The manicured lawn in front of West Dean House is the perfect plot for erecting a marquee, with views of the intricate Edwardian and Victorian architecture and stunning orchards and arboretum.
