Planning Your
Perfect Day

You have just got engaged - congratulations. The excitement is real, and so is the question: where do we start? The good news is that wedding planning does not need to be overwhelming. It starts with two simple decisions: roughly how many guests, and what time of year.

At Salomons Estate, we guide couples through every stage - from your first viewing to the last dance. Our dedicated co-ordinator is your single point of contact throughout, so you are never passed between teams or left wondering what to do next.

Whether you are dreaming of an intimate celebration for 20 or a grand gathering of 220, we have the spaces, the team, and the experience to make it happen.

What to Expect at a Viewing

A viewing is simply a chance to walk through the spaces, ask questions, and see if Salomons Estate feels right for your wedding. There is no pressure and no obligation.

Our team will show you the ceremony spaces, the reception rooms, the grounds, and the accommodation. You can ask about dates, capacity, catering, suppliers - anything that is on your mind.

Most viewings take about an hour. Many couples bring parents or close friends along. It is one of the most enjoyable parts of the whole planning process.

Common Questions

FAQ

Most couples book their venue 12 to 18 months ahead, but it depends on your flexibility. Popular Saturday dates in summer book earliest. If you are open to midweek, Sunday, or off-peak dates, you may find availability with less notice. At Salomons Estate, we recommend getting in touch early so we can share available dates for your preferred time of year.
