Magnificent Georgian Manor House Set in Immaculate Gardens

Nestled in four acres of beautiful Dorset parkland, this secluded Georgian Manor House will make you feel as if you’re escaping to the heart of the countryside. Grand yet inviting, the Manor House will add a touch of splendour to your unforgettable wedding day.

This grand yet elegant, family run, Manor house is situated on what was once a large country estate. Today, the grounds are made up of four acres of parkland and gardens, offering you an exclusive secluded wedding venue, situated on the Dorset/Hampshire border. Our immaculately kept, traditional English gardens will play a pivotal role in the making of your wedding day, acting as your own private sanctuary and providing a picturesque background for your wedding photographs.

Whatever it is you want, it’s of the utmost importance that every detail of your ceremony should be tailored to suit your needs. Whether that means allowing the space to be bathed in natural sunlight, or decorating it with twinkling candles and rose petals – the choice is yours.

Share your vows in the company of up to 150 of your closest friends and family members, in our intimate Pavilion. Set in the centre of our opulent gardens, our breathtaking pavilion provides the perfect romantic setting for your ceremony. On a warm summer’s day, the sides of the Pavilion can be rolled up in order to reveal your scenic surroundings.






After your ceremony, you and your guests will be welcomed with drinks and optional canapés/ice cream in the English Country Garden, whilst you celebrate being newlyweds. This is a perfect opportunity for your photographer to take the reins and capture the happiness of the day.

Your wedding party will be treated to a slice of the continent when they step through to our Italian Walled Garden, where sipping on a glass of Prosecco is almost mandatory. Here, surrounded by intricate statues and an elegant fountain, they’ll find the marquee in which to enjoy both the wedding breakfast and evening entertainment.

Whether it’s a formal sit down meal or a relaxed luxury BBQ you’re after, our in house caterers can meet all of your needs. Both your wedding breakfast and evening entertainment can be enjoyed in our luxurious marquee. The marquee can accommodate up to 150 seated guests and up to 200 guests for your evening reception.

Complete your special day with a disco or live music. Your family and friends will dance the evening away under our enchanted starlight canopy, enjoy a drink outside in the secluded walled garden and revel in the most amazing style.

In close proximity to Christchurch, Poole and Bournemouth, Parley Manor is well connected to the outside world, making it conveniently placed for wedding guests travelling from far and wide.
