Orangery wedding venues have surged in popularity for several compelling reasons; they encapsulate beauty, romance, and offer a unique space. Orangeries are beautiful buildings with large glass windows, historically used to shelter citrus trees during cold weather. Today, many orangeries, and similar conservatory or glass house spaces are incorporated into stunning wedding venues, offering a unique blend of indoors and outdoors. Many country house wedding venues feature orangery spaces already, whole others have been built in recent years to enhance a venue's spaces.
Why choose an orangery wedding venue?
Orangery and glass house venues are really captivating spaces, many couples choose orangery wedding venues for their enchanting blend of nature and elegance. With ample light and stunning outdoor views, glass houses, conservatories and orangeries provide a romantic and airy atmosphere for wedding ceremonies and receptions celebrations. Beyond their charm, orangeries are also versatile. These unique spaces can be dressed up or down to suit any wedding style, making them a perfect blank canvas for couples to bring their dream wedding to life.
