Tamworth Castle dates back almost 1,000 years and is full of historic touches. Situated within acres of beautiful grounds, it’s sat on top of a motte with plenty of places to take those all-important photographs, including the floral terraces that drop down to the banks of the River Anker and the ancient Tudor and Jacobean walls that bring a romantic and intimate feeling to any occasion.

CELEBRATE IN STYLE
The Great Hall is used for ceremonies with candelabra and chandeliers throughout that create a twinkling glow and bring the room to life. The magnificent oak-timbered roof and decorated lead windows create a stunning backdrop for exchanging vows and set the scene for the rest of the day. This space has been wowing visitors for 100s of years and looks wonderful in photographs.

After the ceremony, couples can head to the courtyard to mingle with guests while the photographer gets to work snapping those key moments. The bandstand in the castle’s grounds provides a breathtaking backdrop and is worth taking a few minutes to visit.

WE LOVE...
Tamworth Castle can work with its sister site, Tamworth Assembly Rooms, to create a bespoke menu and reception venue for weddings.
