De Vere Wokefield Estate Weddings

Within 250 acres of beautiful Berkshire parkland is a stunning neo-classical country house designed by famed architect Sir John Soane in the 1500s. Now a luxury hotel and event space, Wokefield Mansion House within De Vere Wokefield Estate is an elegant and special traditional wedding venue to say, ‘I do’, with the addition of newly built Wokefield Place for a contemporary celebration. 


The Scene at De Vere Wokefield Estate Berkshire

Elegance, tradition, history, and luxury abound throughout De Vere Wokefield Estate. An estate that dates back centuries, this hotel and wedding venue is set within 250 acres of parkland in Berkshire, just outside Reading. You’ll be immediately impressed on arrival as you make your way along the winding drive up to Wokefield Mansion House. This 1500s mansion was designed by Sir John Soane, with an immaculate neoclassical façade that is matched with a renovated interior of luxurious architecture and detailing – think dark wood panelling, marble floors and theatrical chandeliers and fireplaces.  

It’s here that weddings take place in your choice of suites that cater to large and intimate ceremonies and receptions, with another option in the newly built Wokefield Place. Within the grounds, manicured gardens and lakes make beautiful areas for pre-dinner drinks, wedding photographs, or even a summer wedding with the option of setting up a gazebo on the lawns. A team of executive chefs creates an exquisite meal to match your surroundings.

Prolong your wedding experience at De Vere Wokefield Estate with the 376 guest rooms available for your use, a private dinner for you and family and friends the day before or after your big day, and a gym, swimming pool, and even golf course within the estate that’s yours to use. Speak to your wedding coordinator who will create a beautiful luxury wedding in this stunning Berkshire location.

Venue Testimonials

Very nice hotel. Friendly staff, very comfy well set out rooms. Good food served. In the middle of beautiful country side with a huge golf course.

Our stay was amazing! A beautifully presented mansion house, with amazing staff members. They made us feel so very comfortable and treated us more like family members rather than guests [...] delicious soup and cake! [...] Highly recommended and I will be booking a corporate event with them soon. Impressed would be an understatement! Well done guys!

This is my second stay at the Wokefield Estate both visits were as part of a good couple hundred group (at least!) as the company I work for held its annual conference there this year and last. The suite I had was lovely, walk in shower, large bed, comfy sofas and plenty of room. The staff were on point [...] all the staff are assets to the hotel. To stay at this hotel is a luxury anyway due to the surroundings but the experience is heightened by the staff. Thank you for the lovely stay.
