Our Wedding Estate

Our Story

Where Our Story Becomes Yours

Tie the knot at Parley Manor, where our estate becomes yours to fill with memories. Start your wedding experience in our Wagon with your closest friends, prepare for the day in our Dressing Room, then step out into the lovingly landscaped grounds. With sweeping staircases, grand interiors, and secret gardens, every inch of the estate is a photo opportunity.

Experience the charm of a secluded countryside wedding, conveniently positioned between Christchurch, Poole, and Bournemouth. Our Georgian manor is tucked in the wilds of Dorset, on a four acre estate stretching between Hurn Forest and the River Stour. At Parley, history meets the modern pace of today’s weddings. The estate is yours, both to discover and transform for your milestone moment.

“We just wanted to send a huge thank you to everyone involved in making our wedding day so incredible. It was honestly just amazing, we have not stopped thinking and talking about it since. From the moment we arrived to the very end of the evening, everything was absolutely perfect. The venue looked stunning, everything ran so smoothly, and your team went above and beyond to make sure we and our guests had the most amazing day. We’ve had so many compliments from family and friends about the beautiful setting, the organisation, and how welcoming everyone was. It truly was everything we hoped for and more, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate such a special occasion. Thank you for all your hard work, attention to detail, and support throughout the planning process and on the day itself. You helped create memories that we’ll cherish forever. ”
