Eastwell Manor, Kent
Eastwell Mano is a Champneys Hotel & Spa
As a Champneys Hotel & Spa, you know you're in for a touch of luxury when it comes to Eastwell Manor in Ashford, Kent – which was where MAFs stars Michelle and Owen got married.

The gardens offer a stunning backdrop for a wedding
For those who want to host their nuptials outside, the Italian gazebo in the tranquil gardens is just as picturesque, while the bride, groom and their guests can make use of the beauty treatments, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, steam room, sauna, gym and tennis courts throughout their stay.
Like all venues, the price varies according to what time of year you want to have your big day. For weddings taking place between May and September, prices range from £13,145 for mid-week to £15,345 for weekends. For a very private day to remember, brides and grooms can rent the entire 22-bed manor house, three event rooms and bar and restaurant for £25,000.
Ashridge House, Hertfordshire
Ashridge is the former residence of King Henry VIII and Princess Elizabeth I
Fancy tying the knot in a royal residence? Not only have former MAFs stars been lucky enough to host their wedding at Ashridge House – the former residence of King Henry VIII and his daughter Princess Elizabeth I – but celebrities such as Jordan Banjo also chose the Grade I country estate for his big day in August 2022.
Set in 190 acres of landscaped gardens, the property is licensed for civil ceremonies for up to 150 guests and can accommodate 210 for the wedding breakfast. Meanwhile, a library, a chapel and more facilities offer plenty of picture-perfect locations for photos.
The Great Hall inside Ashridge House
The website states weddings start at £195 per person, so a guest list of 100 would set you back £19,500, with optional extras such as fireworks. However, British Radiator Manufacturer Stelrad previously worked with local wedding suppliers to calculate the overall cost, and it came to £24,850.
