Winter Twilight Weddings at Delamere Manor
Imagine your wedding day infused with the sounds and smells of winter. Candlelit hallways, the crackling of a fire pit, the scent of mulled wine and toasted s’mores drifting through the air against the backdrop of a frosted landscape. Even the early sunset becomes a blessing, giving your photographer time to capture those golden, cinematic moments.
Twilight weddings at Delamere Manor are perfect for couples seeking an intimate yet stylish celebration. Hire of the Manor starts from 4pm, with guest arrival taking place at 4.30pm and your “I do’s” at 5pm. Once you’re happily wed, your day will flow seamlessly from ceremony to evening reception.
Here are just a few reasons you should consider a winter twilight wedding at Delamere Manor.
More availability
If you would like to marry the following year, it’s often easier to secure a date as winter weddings don’t get booked up quite as quickly.
Winter styling
Isn’t there something so elegant, intimate and cosy about winter wedding décor? The textures of throws and blankets matched with winter florals and the deep colour palettes of the season: burgundy, gold, and dark shades of green. It’s truly stunning.
The Courtyard
One feature that elevates Delamere Manor in the winter months is its courtyard, featuring a star lit, retractable roof that can be removed with the simple click of a button. Even when the roof is drawn back, the lighting remains. It feels like getting married under the stars.
Stay for longer
Adding to the cosy charm of a winter celebration, Delamere Manor also offers six beautifully designed guest bedrooms on site, meaning that couples and their guests can simply stroll back to their rooms at the end of the evening, avoiding cold taxis, long journeys and the disruption of leaving the celebration too early.
For weddings during the winter months, there’s also the potential for couples and their guests to stay the night before their wedding, regardless of what day of the week they choose for their wedding day. In peak seasons, we can only offer an additional night on weddings held on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, but we can expand this during the winter months to any day of the week, meaning our couples can easily turn their wedding into a weekend-long celebration.
Cost saving
Twilight weddings are great for those all-important wedding spreadsheets. As your wedding day will be shorter, it inevitably costs less but without losing out on any of the luxury or magic of a full-length wedding day.
“If you want the most magical wedding venue definitely pick Delamere Manor,” says Mr and Mrs Shotton, who held their wedding at Delamere Manor in December 2024. “Joy and the whole team at Delamere Manor were an absolute dream and made our day even more than perfect. We got married in the courtyard and it was just so magical. I just can’t get over how beautiful our wedding day was.”
