Your Hampshire and Dorset Wedding - March/April 2022 (Issue 91)

LEWESTON SCHOOL, SHERBORNE 01963 211 011 | www.lewestonenterprises.co.uk/weddings For al fresco ceremonies, the Belevedere at Leweston is a dreamy setting that’s hard to beat. The magical 200-metre walkway is flanked by trees leading to the picture-perfect spot, where you say ‘I do’. Great for the views alone, it’s the most romantic backdrop for a fairytale wedding and that’s not all, there’s a host of other wonderful album-worthy features. A long drive leads up to the imposing historic manor house, set within 46 acres of parkland flanked by Italian gardens with commanding views of the Dorset countryside beyond. The historic gardens boast statues, ponds and orchards and look breathtaking throughout the seasons. There’s a variety of individual, characterful rooms, each with splashes of Art Deco-inspired details, offering a range of options for the ceremony and reception. As well the romantic Belevedere, couples can marry in the light and airy Lecture Room with views of the Italian garden. Receptions for up to 80 guests are held in the manor house or in a bespoke marquee in the grounds for up to 250 loved ones. We love… that couples can enjoy a complimentary food tasting and overnight accommodation, depending on availability. www.stephnewtonphotography.com WINTERSHILL HALL, DURLEY 07849 231 190 | www.wintershill.net Celebrate your wedding without fear of being disturbed in the magnificent grounds of Wintershill Hall.
