Craig and Anna

Wedding Details

Ceremony
Italian Garden Wedding Pagoda.

Drink’s Reception
Italian Garden at Arley Arboretum (hired from The Roger & Douglas Turner Charitable Trust via Arley House).

The Finer Details
Craig and Anna chose to exchange their vows amongst the beautiful surroundings of the Italian Garden. The garden with its formal planting, beautiful flower beds, collenades of lime trees and feature water fountains made for a truly romantic setting.

Bringing the personal touch George, the couples gorgeous bulldog made for a perfect ring bearer and almost stole the show from Anna as she walked down the isle.

Prosecco & canapés followed the ceremony, with love and laughter resounding inside this stunning walled garden.

Stealing a moment together the bride and groom took the opportunity to capture some memorable moments with their photographer, including the arboretum’s gorgeous flower arch; 30m of gorgeous yellow laburnum, along with breath-taking views over the Severn Valley.

Wedding Breakfast
Bespoke Marquee at Arley Arboretum.

Craig and Anna led their guests from the gardens to their reception; a beautiful bespoke marquee on the Arboretum lawn. With décor elegantly created by Pumpkin Events in shades of rose gold, blush pinks, delicate lace and lush green foliage, accented with candelabras for added romance.

After the wedding breakfast, a succession of speeches had all the guests laughing and reminiscing fondly of loved ones who weren’t able to be there on the day.

The Evening Celebrations
Craig and Anna invited all their guests to join them on the dance floor after their first dance as husband and wife. For the rest of the night it was packed with dancing feet partying the night away, bringing at midnight the end of a truly magical day.

Important Update

As we continue our commitment to sustainability and improving our guest experience, we’re excited to share that the entire Arley Estate — including the Tearoom and Events Venue — will be going cashless from January 2026. This change helps us reduce our environmental impact, streamline operations, and support a more efficient, secure, and modern way of working across the estate. We’ll continue to accept all major debit and credit cards, as well as contactless and mobile payments. Our team is, of course, here to support anyone who may need a little extra help adjusting to the new system. Thank you for joining us on this positive step towards a greener future for Arley Estate.
