Intimate Weddings with Overnight Stays at Sandon Manor
Your intimate wedding deserves more than a single day. It’s a story of love, laughter, and connection that should unfold slowly, surrounded by the people who matter most. At Sandon Manor, we open our doors as your home for two nights, giving you the freedom to design a wedding that reflects you.
Whether you choose the Moroccan-inspired Grain Barn or the historic Sandon Manor House, each space is yours to style, celebrate in, and call home as you create an unforgettable DIY intimate wedding & stay.
🌿 Your Natural Intimate Wedding & Stay at the Grain Barn
The Grain Barn is a warm, contemporary space inspired by Moroccan courtyards and the surrounding Hertfordshire countryside. With room for 22 guests (or up to 30 with optional Grain Barn apartments), it’s perfect for couples wanting to host a relaxed DIY countryside wedding in a home-like setting.
✨ The Night Before
Begin your wedding stay with a rehearsal dinner and cocktails overlooking nature — the perfect way to gather, laugh, and ease into the celebrations.
💍 Your Wedding Day
Wake slowly and enjoy a calm morning together. Then let your day flow effortlessly: your ceremony, drinks, wedding meal, and heartfelt speeches — all unfolding under one roof, in a space you’ve styled your way.
🌙 The Day After
When the party winds down, retreat to the rainwater-fed outdoor spa for a little bliss. Share a laid-back farewell brunch with your guests before stepping into married life.
🏰 Your Historic Manor House Intimate Wedding & Stay
For couples who love history and elegance, the Manor House offers a timeless home for your intimate wedding. With exclusive use for two nights, you can host up to 16 guests in the house itself, or expand to 18 by booking the charming Dovecote.
✨ The Evening Before
Host a warm rehearsal dinner in the dining room and enjoy drinks in the bar room — the perfect start to your DIY celebration.
💍 Your Wedding Day
Awaken to a slow morning before stepping into your vows. Enjoy a drinks reception in the formal gardens, then gather for your wedding meal and speeches in the beauty of the Manor you’ve made your own.
🌙 The Day After
Unwind in the outdoor spa, linger in the welcoming reception rooms, and end your stay with a relaxed farewell brunch surrounded by your closest family and friends.
