De Vere Tortworth Court features in new series Ultimate Wedding Planner

De Vere Tortworth Court features in new hit series Ultimate Wedding Planner broadcast on BBC Two. Made by BBC Studios, the show sees Fred Sirieix, Sara Davies and Raj Somaiya judge eight aspiring wedding planners battling it out to see who's got what it takes to be crowned the Ultimate Wedding Planner.

In episode four, the wedding planners are tasked with planning a multi-themed wedding, one of their toughest challenges yet. The engaged couple wanted an autumnal fantasy wedding, and the team set to work utilising De Vere Tortworth Court's Victorian Orangery as the perfect backdrop for the ceremony.

On arrival, the wedding guests made their way to the Victorian Orangery, which was dressed with vibrant decorations and dried flowers, successfully meeting the brief of an autumnal fantasy wedding. Whilst the guests were anticipating the bride's arrival, a harpist played, which also welcomed the bride as she walked down the aisle. The ceremony was seamless and the icing on the cake was an owl acting as the couple's ring bearer.

Following the ceremony, guests made their way onto the Terrace and enjoyed magical-themed cocktails overlooking the hotel's manicured gardens. Thanks to its ornamental glass ceiling and windows in the grand conservatory, originally built in 1874, it's flooded with natural light and filled with lush greenery. The Orangery has an outside patio which lends itself perfectly to drinks receptions and group photos. The venue is a wedding photographer's dream with 30 acres of parkland surrounding it and an extensive arboretum providing an ideal backdrop for those picture-perfect moments throughout the day.
