The Venue

Located in the picturesque county of Kent, The Orchard is a beacon of charm and elegance for couples seeking a memorable wedding. Nestled amidst rolling hills and lush greenery, this enchanting venue offers a romantic backdrop for weddings. It offers a number of ceremony and reception spaces which are completely versatile allowing you to bring your wedding vision to life.

A Ceremony With Views

The intimate wedding ceremony on The Water Terrace was nothing short of enchanting. With the couple facing outward, their vows were exchanged against the panoramic views of the Kent hillsides, adding an extra layer of romance to the occasion.

Silk white florals adorned the length of the aisle, complete with white blossom trees to frame the couple during their vows. The decor brought the natural theme the couple envisioned to life. It was a moment of pure romance and intimacy, where every detail came together to create a truly unforgettable experience for the couple and their guests.

The Intimate Reception

We transformed the intimate reception room into a vision of elegance for the bride, groom, and their 10 cherished guests. With a neutral colour scheme as our palette, we curated a sophisticated and timeless reception that radiated luxury.

The focal point of our decor was a meticulously styled long table setup, adorned with details to enhance the intimate dining experience. From candles and candelabras to ribbed charger plates and elegant stationery from Scribed by Sophie, every element was thoughtfully chosen to complement the overall aesthetic. Candlelight was used to create a warm and enchanting atmosphere which made for a luxurious setting.
