A Unique Evening Reception Experience
The 17th Century Barn
Evening receptions take place in our beautifully restored 17th-century barn as the lit-up castle provides a stunning backdrop to the festivities. Inside the barn, elegant white drapes and twinkling fairy lights create an unforgettable atmosphere for your celebration.
As the night goes on, your guests can head over to our permanently set up upmarket cash bar. Located in a glassed-off area of the barn, guests can sit down and relax without feeling separated from the party. The barn’s ambience, combined with this space’s convenience, makes for a truly special experience. As you enjoy the magical ambience indoors, our charming, picket-fenced lawns at the rear of the barn offer a delightful space for guests to unwind during summer evenings. The festoon-lit lawns, overlooked by our enchanting alpaca paddock, add a touch of whimsy and charm to our idyllic setting.
Inclusive Wedding Packages for a Seamless Experience
At Allington Castle, we understand that planning a wedding can be stressful, which is why we offer a one-stop-shop experience. Unlike many other venues, we include a range of cost-saving things to ensure that your day is as stress-free as possible.
Our evening reception package includes tables and chairs, a resident club-standard DJ, a rustic dance floor, rustic LOVE lights, a candy cart, a state-of-the-art photo booth, lawn games for the kids, and even barrels and umbrellas. You won’t need to worry about outside contractors as we take care of everything for you.
All you need to do is book your photographer, liaise with our catering team from Invicta for your catering needs, and sort out your decorations. We make the process simple and convenient for you. In addition to our club-standard DJ, we also welcome unamplified live bands for a touch of sophistication, such as jazz or blues ensembles. Please note that our resident DJ must play all amplified music, ensuring a consistent and upmarket atmosphere.
We want your special day to be memorable and enjoyable, which is why we take care of the details so you can focus on creating memories that will last a lifetime. Contact us today to learn more about how we can make your wedding unforgettable!
