Imagine exchanging vows surrounded by blossoms, birdsong, and sweeping views of the River Wye. At How Caple Court, one of the most romantic wedding venues in Herefordshire, our Edwardian gardens provide an unforgettable setting for your ceremony and celebration. From the licensed outdoor gazebo to formal terraces and secluded woodland features, every corner offers a picture-perfect backdrop for your wedding day.
An Exclusive-Use Garden Wedding Venue
When you choose How Caple Court, the entire estate – including 11 acres of gardens – is yours alone. Unlike many country house wedding venues in the UK, our gardens are reserved exclusively for couples and their guests. This privacy ensures a relaxed, intimate atmosphere where your love story takes centre stage.
The Beauty of the Edwardian Gardens
Originally designed in Edwardian times, the gardens sit high above the River Wye with vistas across the Herefordshire countryside to the Forest of Dean and Welsh Mountains. Formal terraces framed by yew hedges, stone pools, statues, and a traditional rose garden contrast with the wilder charm of mature trees and flowering shrubs. Hidden within the woodland, a romantic Italianate water garden creates a sense of discovery – an enchanting space for couples’ portraits.
Outdoor Ceremonies and Receptions
Couples can say “I do” beneath our licensed garden gazebo, with guests gathered on the terraces to share the moment. In warmer months, drinks receptions flow naturally onto the lawns, while in cooler seasons the gardens remain a stunning backdrop for photography. Whether you’re planning an outdoor wedding in Herefordshire or simply want to capture timeless images, the gardens offer both beauty and practicality.
