Nestled in over a thousand acres of rolling parkland, manicured lawns and fragrant gardens on the Bedfordshire/Hertfordshire border, Luton Hoo Hotel, Golf & Spa offers couples two stunning wedding venues in one truly gorgeous setting.

Steeped in glamour and history - and the setting for British classics such as Four Weddings and a Funeral - the venue is among the most impressive wedding locations in the region. Positioned on a glorious estate created by the renowned English landscape designer Capability Brown, the 18th century Grade I listed mansion sits at the end of a sweeping drive and combines the grandeur of a bygone era with the luxurious facilities of a modern five-star hotel.

Luton Hoo offers a number of unique spaces for weddings and receptions ranging from lavish wedding parties for 120 to intimate gatherings for family and friends. These include a former Orthodox Russian chapel with an ornate domed ceiling and stained glass windows guaranteed to make every bride feel like a princess. For smaller weddings, suites include the Grinling Gibbons room, decked in ornate wood carvings by the famous English sculptor.
Hidden on the banks of the River Lea, surrounded by woodland, landscaped gardens and a 50 acre lake is Luton Hoo’s superb wedding venue, Warren Weir. This secluded setting, inspired by the Arts and Crafts era, can be hired for private use, offering your event exclusivity.

Five suites vary in size and character, accommodating 290 guests - ideal for large gatherings. Warren Weir combines 84 bedrooms with a pool and snooker room, allowing guests to enjoy celebrations at their leisure. Warren Weir is also available for wedding parties that wish to bring in their own chef to cater for special dietary and nutrition requirements.

The wedding team at Luton Hoo understand that every couple is unique and no two celebrations are the same so offer packages that include everything needed for an outstanding event.

Bespoke and tailor-made weddings can be devised while deluxe upgrades are also available. Luton Hoo’s dedicated wedding planners are on hand to assist with all aspects of the preparations, leaving you free to enjoy your Big Day.
