The castle, lake and deer park provide a dream-like setting for
your wedding photographs, but there are several
excellent locations for photography in the castle itself, and in
the adjacent walled gardens. In our contacts list you will find
the best local photographers: they all come highly recommended by
previous clients.
While you are busy
with the photographer, your guests will be enjoying their drinks
in the reception rooms, or outside on the terrace, overlooking the
lake and deer park.
The castle has established a great reputation for excellence and
reliability when it comes to serving fine cuisine and
good, sensibly priced wines. All our catering is done ‘in
house’, but we will happily work alongside professional outside
caterers if Kosher or ethnic food is required. Our new
state-of-the-art kitchens opened in July 2004.
Creche facilities can be set up in one of the
adjacent rooms so that parents with young children can relax,
without having to worry about what their children are up to.
Our wedding package includes the cost of the champagne reception,
the meal, the wines and the mineral waters that accompany it, and
some of your flower arrangements: our florists will happily create
floral arrangements to your chosen colours and styles. The fantastic
thing about Ripley is that you know well in advance exactly what
your wedding is going to cost you, and can plan for it accordingly.
You pay the bulk of the expenses up front so it’s one less thing to
worry about afterwards, and we keep extras to a minimum.
It’s your big day: we take the trouble so you just enjoy
yourselves!
Accommodation is available at the nearby
