ALVESTON MANOR, CV37 7HP
01789 295 478 | www.macdonaldhotels.co.uk/alveston-manor
Alveston Manor is a 16th century manor house situated within five acres of beautiful gardens. The grounds are well maintained with a splash of colour from the flowers and famous Cedar tree where Shakespeare did his first performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
Boasting original features throughout, the house has plenty of character and looks charming in photographs. The Manor Bar & Blue Lounge are ideal for guests to relax pre-wedding, along with the Manor Restaurant, which serves delicious meals and breakfasts.
Just a stone’s throw from the town centre of Stratford-upon-Avon, this hidden gem is traditional in décor but has a modern twist with the addition of a leisure centre and spa.
CELEBRATE IN STYLE
The Cedar Room has beautiful windows facing onto the lawns and can accommodate up to 120 guests for the ceremony and meal and 140 for the evening celebration.
Outdoor ceremonies are held on the lawn in front of the Cedar tree with up to 120 friends and family. Additional seating can be added on the lawn or terrace in the summer months with the option for stretch tents if required.
WE LOVE...
Couples who book their wedding at Alveston Manor will receive a free menu tasting, use of the honeymoon suite, a pre-wedding reservation in the Manor Restaurant, a Bridal Bliss Spa Package the night before and a private family breakfast the morning after the wedding.

Expert says prenups aren't just for the rich and famous
Legal experts at Richard Nelson LLP are urging Brits to rethink who prenups are really for. While often seen as something reserved for high-profile couples, data suggests they remain largely overlooked in everyday relationships. Just 7 percent of divorced Brits had a prenuptial agreement in place before separating, highlighting a significant gap between perception and reality. Regionally, attitudes vary. Manchester has emerged as the UK's 'prenup capital', with 13 percent of divorced couples having one in place, compared to 8 percent in London and 11 percent in Birmingham. Meanwhile, cities including Liverpool and Southampton reported no uptake among those surveyed.
