1. Exchange Private Vows in a Secluded Spot Before the Ceremony While the ceremony itself is a momentous occasion, consider exchanging deeply personal vows in a more intimate setting within the St Tewdrics grounds beforehand, in Tŷ Haf (our pergola) surrounded by a beautiful seasonal wildflower meadow. Perfect for saying “I do” and for photographs everyone will want to keep.
2. A Banquet Fit for Your Style Whether you love our traditional round tables with alternative layouts that reflect your personality, you can also hire longer tables from local suppliers. Let us help you design a seating arrangement that feels authentically you.
3. Choose Your Ideal Ceremony Location Say “I do” in a way that reflects your vision, whether it’s surrounded by nature under Tŷ Haf, intimate and filled with light in our Reception Room, or a grand celebration in The Courtyard. With multiple ceremony spaces available, you can choose the backdrop that suits your style and the season.
4. Make the Venue Yours with Personal Styling: One of the most-loved features at St Tewdrics House is how adaptable the space is, we offer a flexible canvas for your décor dreams. Our house and grounds change with the seasons, and your wedding can too. You can match your florals to the soft summer wildflowers around the venue or opt for bold, autumnal arrangements, our spaces are the perfect blank canvas for your vision. Whether you envision a romantic, rustic affair, a vibrant, bohemian celebration, or a sleek, modern gathering, we encourage you to bring your ideas to life.
5. Bring Your Furry Friend: For many couples, their dog is an integral part of the family. At St Tewdrics, we understand this bond. Include your furry friend in your day, from walking down the aisle with you to featuring in your couple portraits, we love seeing your dog playing a part in your day. We’ve even seen dogs in bow ties and floral collars and trust us, it’s adorable.
6. Opt for an Intimate or Ceremony-Only Wedding Personal doesn’t have to mean small, but sometimes, smaller weddings feel more personal. With our intimate wedding and ceremony-only options, you can plan a beautiful, meaningful day in a shorter time frame with your closest people.
7. Customise the Details From embroidered veils and monogrammed shoes, custom favours and wax seals to neon signs, it’s often the little things that make your wedding feel unmistakably you. Our team will help you bring those personal touches to life.
8. A Culinary Journey: Work with our catering partners to create a menu that truly reflects your culinary preferences. From family favourite recipes to featuring your favourite cuisines or dietary requirements, make your wedding feast a delicious reflection of your journey together.
9. Host a Multi-Day Celebration Why limit the fun to just one day? Many of our couples are opting for a two or three-day wedding, making the most of the house and grounds. Think: a welcome dinner, wedding day, and a relaxed BBQ the day after. It’s all about creating memories, not just moments.
10. Share Your Story: Display photos and mementos that showcase your relationship journey. Create a slideshow to play during the reception, set up a memory lane display, or add meaningful images to your table décor to add a deeply personal touch to your celebration.
