THE OBSERVATORY 01323 832 731 | www.the-observatory.org The Observatory is a one-of-a-kind spot in the heart of the East Sussex countryside. Previously home to the Royal Greenwich Observatory, it now operates as an attraction with extensive science exhibits and charitable status promoting science for all. The six iconic telescope domes provide an unforgettable setting if you’re looking for something totally different for added entertainment, while the permanent marquees offer complete flexibility to create a reception style as unique as the two of you. Located in the picturesque village of Herstmonceux, the grounds provide the wow factor in spades! Driving up to The Observatory you can’t help but be intrigued by the other-worldly green domes emerging from the local countryside. Ceremonies take place in Telescope Dome E, which is licensed for 60 guests. It features an incredible historical telescope in the centre of the room. For larger gatherings, the permanent geodesic marquee can be used for the “I dos,” accompanied by 100 loved ones. This boasts an unusual shape offering opportunities for decoration with ultimate flexibility. You can also opt to host your reception in the Geodesic Dome for 100 or more guests. Alternatively, choose The Big Space (the main marquee). It’s practical and spacious, light and airy, with a large decking area.
