The Lost Village Of Dode Wedding Venue, Kent.

About The Lost Village Of Dode

Nestled in the Kent countryside, The Lost Village of Dode offers a unique, exclusive-use wedding venue. From rustic barns to a charming oast house, we provide stunning spaces for ceremonies and receptions. Celebrate your special day surrounded by picturesque landscapes and create unforgettable memories.

Nestled in a secluded valley between Luddesdown and Holly Hill, The Lost Village of Dode is a unique and enchanting wedding venue steeped in history. Once an unloved Norman church built over 900 years ago, this beautifully restored medieval treasure is the only remnant of the now 'lost' village of Dode—a setting like no other for your special day. Perfect for couples seeking an intimate and romantic celebration, Dode accommodates up to 40 of your closest family and friends. Whether you envision an indoor Civil Ceremony, Partnership, or Renewal of Vows in the candlelit church or an outdoor Blessing or Pagan Handfasting Ceremony in the ancient Stone Circle, Dode is a place where love stories truly come to life.

After your ceremony, enjoy the stunning grounds for your photos, drinks, and canapés before hosting a memorable reception. We work with expert caterers to offer options from medieval banquets to hog roasts, grazing tables, or afternoon teas—all tailored to your preferences and dietary needs. Add a magical touch to your day with unique extras like an owl delivering your rings, cuddly alpacas, or a bubble send-off.

For couples seeking a multi-day experience, on-site award-winning self-catering cottages are available, making Dode the perfect retreat for your wedding celebration. We’re dog-friendly too, so your furry friends are welcome to join the festivities.

At The Lost Village of Dode, we offer both bespoke weddings and thoughtfully designed packages, ensuring your day is exactly as you’ve imagined. With no hidden charges or corkage fees, you can relax and enjoy every moment.
