Exclusive Use Wedding Venues in Berkshire

Berkshire

The romantic Royal County of Berkshire is famously home to Windsor Castle, one of the longest standing Royal residences in the world and still an official residence of The Queen. Dotted around Berkshire are many small villages, and stately homes to visit such as Basildon Park and Highclere Castle. There are country parks, boat trips to be taken along the Thames and the Berkshire Downs. The County town is Reading, home to the world famous Reading Festival since 1955. Historically, Reading has grown upon “the three Bs” - Beer, Bulbs and Biscuits. These were three major businesses that were established in the 18th century. These days Reading is a multi-cultural centre, with an ever-changing music and food scene rubbing up against the many historical venues. Plenty of options for your wedding day. Other main urban centres are Slough, Bracknell, Maidenhead and Wokingam. There’s a famous racecourse at Newbury, and the town of Windsor not only has the Castle, but Legoland and the Savill Garden too. Reading is located less than a one hour drive from London and there are major road links such as the M4, M3 and M25, and proximity to Heathrow, Berkshire’s climate benefits from proximity to London, with highs of 22° in June-August and lows of 7° in December-February. While December is wettest and July is driest, rainfall stays about the same throughout the whole year. Photo by Lorena Kelly via Unsplash
