Our forest retreat, Beaulieu Hotel, has a number of licensed rooms for civil wedding ceremonies, civil partnership ceremonies and commitment ceremomies.  .

Our civil ceremony rooms

The large Beaulieu Suite is licensed for up to 300 guests and is the largest function suite in the New Forest. This large airy suite opens out on to the beautiful landscaped gardens and with its elegant décor and chandeliers it is perfect for larger weddings.

If you would prefer a smaller civil ceremony, choose from the Exbury and Ipley rooms. The Exbury room is licensed for 180 wedding guests while the Ipley is licensed for 225 wedding guests. For more intimate civil wedding ceremonies the Applemore and Orchid rooms are also licensed and provide a cosy setting for your special day.
