Civil Partnerships

If you are looking for a venue not only for your wedding reception but also for your civil partnership ceremony, then you have come to the right place. We are pleased to welcome couples to celebrate their civil partnership or commitment ceremonies.

Our classic country hotel, Bartley Lodge has two rooms licensed to hold civil partnership ceremonies. Choose from the elegant Crystal Room , which opens onto the Orangery, or the grand Baronial Hall complette with chandaliers, both open out to the gardens and are licensed for up to 100 guests.

We can help you to liaise with the local Superintendent Registrar to confirm a date and time to suit your wishes. You can contact the Registrar’s office on 0845 603 5637 or by email on new.forest.registrars@hants.gov.uk.

Bartley Lodge offers the perfect backdrop for your gay wedding followed by a celebration to suit. Whether you wish to celebrate with a traditional or less conventional wedding party we will be delighted to help organise your dream day.

Alternatively you may choose to hold your partnership ceremony elsewhere and hold your reception in our grand oak-panelled baronial hall, where we would be happy to accommodate you. See our packages available on our wedding receptions pages.

Our friendly and efficient team are here to help your day run smoothly and can advice you on all you need to know about your ceremony, from chairs to music. To begin planning your ceremony today give us a call on 0800 44 44 41.
