Your Surrey Wedding- Page number 10 - June/July 2021 (Issue 89)

LORD AND LADY Fans of the Netflix hit Bridgerton will be pleased to hear that you can tie the knot in the beautiful park where the high society elite promenaded around the serene Serpentine Lake and iconic bridge. Painshill in Surrey has been featured in films and TV dramas over the years, and the 158-acre estate makes a beautiful backdrop for romantic ceremonies. Couples can exchange their vows with up to 75 guests in the white Gothic temple, high on a hill overlooking the lake. Afterwards, the wedding party can move to the marquee and have exclusive use of the Amphitheatre lawn in front of the temple. A golf buggy and chauffeur will also be on hand to drive around the estate for photographs in some beautiful locations, including the romantic abbey ruins on the water’s edge, a sparkling crystal grotto and picturesque bridges.
