Guests can watch the ceremony from rows of seating on the adjacent lawn.

This gorgeous rural church has pre-Saxon origins and is surrounded by open farmland.
Church of England weddings are available at St Mildred’s, including to those with no prior connection to the parish, after agreement with the Reverend & Church Wardens.

Wow!! Preston Court was the best location and venue I had seen on my initial hunt for the perfect wedding. Quirky, unique, creative and more importantly, somewhere that you can inject a bit of your own personality into. All the staff are super easy to deal with and managed my "control freakiness" with ease!!!!! Nothing was too much trouble and with their stellar recommendations, I had a wedding that Pinterest would be proud of!! I can't recommend these guys enough if you're looking for something less ordinary. AND Gigglebox is very fun. I loved watching the edit and seeing all my mates reactions on film. Great idea and so glad we did it!! A day we'll never forget.xx

Kate & James
Beautiful Preston Court Wedding... In August I had the privilege to 2nd shoot with the lovely Eliza Claire, Michelle & Peter’s beautiful wedding. Preston Court is amazing full of quirks and treasure troves such as a fairground carousel, old steam engines and amazing old organs in the huge barn.

Everyone LOVED the venue, we had so many people say it was the best wedding they'd been to and that they couldn't get over how amazing Preston Court was. The garden was stunning and everyone loved the carousel, the organs and the peacocks. We loved being able to spread the reception between the grassy bit and the courtyard and I think the guests loved it too. We can't believe how lucky we were with the weather, it all looked stunning. We were very sad to leave yesterday after collecting our stuff thinking it would likely be our last time there.
Sophie & Ross - Date of Wedding - May 2017
Everyone at Preston Court were so helpful, friendly and made our wedding day in October so very special. It is an amazing and beautiful venue and we couldn't have imagined getting married anywhere else. Everyone at the wedding commented on how unique the venue was and how lovely the staff were. Thank you for making our day so wonderful and one we will remember forever.
