The Ceremony
Whether you prefer a traditional wedding ceremony and reception, or a more informal relaxed approach to your special day, here at Fordhall Farm we can cater for all.
With the legalities booked at a time to suit you, our bespoke service and flexibility allow you to create your own ceremony on the farm.
For more information visit Shropshire Registry Services.
With a selection of ceremony destinations on site, including our beautiful roundhouse nestled in the woodlands, or perhaps our Norman Ringwork and Bailey site with an outstanding view across the valley, you will be spoilt for choice as to where to host your nearest and dearest for your ceremony.
We are fully registered with Shropshire Council to hold legal ceremonies, so long gone are the days of being restricted to a church or registry office to share your vows.
We work closely with local celebrants to ensure that your ceremony is personal to you and your partner. It can include music, readings, a dress or none of the above, your day, your way.
Food & Drink
At the heart of every wedding day is the food you share with your family and friends.
As we all know, food is the ingredient that binds us together and here at Fordhall Farm we have a vast range of options to suit all tastes.
Ranging from a traditional silver service bespoke menu, right through to a hog roast of Fordhall Farm Old Spot Gloucester pork, or a grand Grazing Table decorated fir for a Royal banquet - the possibilities are endless. We use fresh, seasonal produce to form our outstanding menus which are produced and delivered by our own in-house chef and catering team.
We can also provide a fully stocked bar delivering a range of locally sourced ciders, lagers and ales alongside a selection of organic and local wines. With a variety of spirits and mixers, even self-service barrels of local ale, there will be something for everybody.
Accommodation
This is your day and every aspect can be tailored to suit your vision and your numbers of guests.
Ranging from small intimate gatherings right through to weddings of 150 guests+
