MONTAGUE FARM 07598 920 285 | www.weddingsatmontague.co.uk Montague is located on the western edge of the Pevensey Levels with spectacular views across its own grasslands to the sea. It’s home to a rustic venue comprised of an 18th-century complex of barns, courtyards and homes, which lie at the heart of the farm and its daily activities. When you book your wedding day here you’re allowed exclusive access to the venue and freedom to create your perfect weekend as there’s options for glamping. You can say “I do” in The Palace accompanied by 100 loved ones before spilling out onto the beautiful lawn for drinks. It can also be used for blessings or welcome drinks if you’re tying the knot off site. Alternatively, you can decide to exchange your vows beneath The Palace porch where there’s room for 200 guests seated on the wedding lawn. It’s entirely up to you, and the weather! Receptions for 200 are hosted in the Big Barn, where the First World War wagon wheel lights and drapes combined with the rustic wooden interior are perfect if you’re looking for an elegant setting with plenty of space. There’s also a bar so your guests will never go thirsty! The Watering Shed is also part of the venue and is beautifully positioned on the apex of the hill with stunning views across the Pevensey Marshes. It works well as a cocktail bar or for teas and coffees. You have the choice of how you wish to utilise it.
