Multi-Day Weddings

More time, more memories

The best days deserve more than one day.

If one day doesn’t feel quite enough, two days at The Harty Estate gives you the time to enjoy every part of it.

It means an evening together before your wedding, a night on the estate after it, and a slow breakfast the morning after. More time, more of the people you love, more moments you’ll treasure.


The Harty Estate sits beside the Swale estuary in rural Kent, between two nature reserves and surrounded by our family farmland – remote and unspoilt, with wide skies and an edge-of-the-world feeling, about an hour from London.

When you book a two-day celebration here, the wedding venue is exclusively yours – the barns, the waterside terraces, the gardens, the private pub, and more besides – from the first arrival to the last goodbye.

Two Day Celebrations

Day one – arrival & the night before

There’s something about the night before a wedding, when it starts to feel real. The nerves are there, but so is the excitement, and having everyone together the evening before is really uplifting.

Your guests will stay in either the estate cottages or guest rooms, with the 16th century private pub, the waterside terraces, gardens and grounds all theirs to explore.

If you’d like to keep the ceremony spaces as a surprise until the wedding day itself, your guests can stay and celebrate at the cottages, before seeing the heart of the venue for the first time on the morning of the wedding.

In the evening, gather everyone together for a traditional Kentish hog roast, or a generous grazing table. Easy and unhurried, great food and even better company – the best possible start to two days together.

Day two – your wedding day

Your wedding day begins with a full Kentish buffet breakfast laid on for the whole party, with everything you need to get the morning moving. If your wedding party is getting ready in one of our two preparation rooms, we’ll bring a brunch platter to you there, if you prefer.

Your ceremony takes place in one of three beautiful spaces. Exchange vows in the Hop Barn or Spring Barn, both rustic and refined with a feeling of being connected to the landscape around them. Or step outside to the Oak Gazebo, which looks out over the Rose Garden, wetland meadows and estuary.

Drinks follow in The Ferry House, our 16th-century private pub, and out across the waterside terraces – a wonderful part of the day when nerves have lifted and you’re free to take in the joy.

The rest of the day flows from there. A three-course, three choice wedding breakfast prepared by our award-winning chefs, working with homegrown produce from the kitchen garden, family farm and the wider estate, supplemented by the best of Kent – food that feels genuinely connected to the place you’re celebrating in.

Then an evening of dancing, and at the end of it all, your guests are already home. A complimentary honeymoon suite is yours for the night.

Day three – breakfast & farewell

The morning after goes slowly, and that’s exactly right. A full hot buffet breakfast is laid on, plus fresh bread, homemade preserves, fruit, yogurt, cereals, tea, coffee and local juices.

People find each other, laugh about the night before, and relive the day before anyone has to leave.

But it doesn’t have to be a final farewell. Throughout the year we host special pop-up dining and stay occasions at the estate – a chance to come back to your special place and relive and the memories you made here in the married years ahead.

Two day weddings...

My husband and I got married at The Harty Estate in April and had the most incredible experience. From our first viewing we were made to feel so special, and the team made the planning process feel easy.

We were able to stay the night before our wedding, and from the moment I arrived I was warmly welcomed by name and had the full VIP treatment. The room itself (the Waterside suite) was stunning, and the bed was so comfortable. On the day, everything went calmly and smoothly thanks to the efforts of all of The Harty Estate team, who took such amazing care of us on the day and ensured everything was taken care of.

All of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue is, the deliciousness of the food, and the attentiveness of the staff. Our Harty Estate wedding was absolutely magical, and I cannot recommend them enough to anyone considering getting married here.

Emma & Janis

Our wedding day was magical, it was perfect. Every single detail of the day was wonderful. We opted for the 2 day wedding package. This gave us the fantastic opportunity to celebrate with our family and closest friends and spread our wedding over a few days. The day before we had time to relax and settle into our 5* stunning rooms before spending the evening eating delicious food in the barn with our guests.

The venue has a very rustic and warm feel, inside and outside. With the backdrop of the estuary and the stunning gardens (even at the beginning of spring they were beautiful) there were so many places to go for the perfect wedding photos. Every guest commented on the food - all either grown on site or sourced locally. We can say with our hands on our hearts, that our wedding was the best day of our lives - truly magical. Thank you.

A day we will never forget

The team at The Harty Estate were amazing from the start, they responded quickly to any questions and were always willing to help. We used all accommodation including the cottages for two nights and our guests said it was an amazing stay & lovely to be all together.

Everything ran like clockwork and we honestly can’t thank the team enough. The venue is stunning and our day was everything we could have dreamed of, there isn’t a thing we would change. I just wish we could do it all again!! We got so many compliments on the food, styling and venue and that everyone had an amazing time, we couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you!
