This magnificent venue is one of Wilthire’s hidden gem and one of the most unique wedding venues in the Cotswolds region. Located in the small village of Purton, steeped in over 400 years of history, it offers both traditional charm and modern luxury for your special day and beautiful backdrops for your wedding photography. It is easy to see why you would fall in love with this venue for your wedding. As a pear tree wedding photographer with few weddings documented at this venue, I have to say that this is hands-down my favourite venue in and around the Swindon area. But if you need any persuasion, here are 5 top reasons you'll love having your wedding at this romantic wedding location.

1. Idyllic English Country House Atmosphere
The first reason to book this Wiltshire wedding venue is that it’s just so gorgeous! Originally built in the 15th century as the vicarage for Purton village, it epitomizes the romance of the English countryside. With its beautiful honey-coloured Cotswold stone facade and stunning landscape gardens spanning over 7 acres, including its vineyard, it provides the perfect backdrop for your pear tree wedding photography. Stroll through the grounds past grapevine arbours and wildflower meadows for stunning natural backdrops all year round.

2. Exclusive Use of the Entire Pear Tree Purton
One of the unique features of The Pear Tree Purton is its exclusive use wedding packages, offering you the entire 17-room venue from midday until midnight. Currently, there's a limited-time offer with 20% off and off-peak catering prices on all remaining 2024 dates. Your professional wedding planner can guide you through these exceptional opportunities. With a capacity of up to 150 guests, you'll have plenty of space for your wedding ceremony and wedding breakfast in the light-filled Orangery extension. It can accommodate up to 200 guests at full capacity on your evening reception, with a large indoor bar area backed up by large outdoor spaces and ample terrace (building) space to enjoy a drink. Many hotels are nearby for those not staying overnight at the wedding venue. The wedding team will help make your wedding dream a reality.

3. On-Site Accommodation for Guests
Not having accommodation can be a deal breaker for couples getting married. So, seeking a wedding venue in Wiltshire with on-site accommodations for guests to fully enjoy the party, have a drink, and then relax in a comfortable bed for the night might be a priority. Conveniently, The Pear Tree has 18 luxury bedrooms on-site where your guests can spend the night after your wedding, and you can stay in the cosy honeymoon suite with its own balcony that overlooks the gardens! With accommodation included, you can relax and enjoy a leisurely breakfast together with your guests the next morning.

4. Stunning Outdoor Ceremony Spaces
Pear Tree weddings are spoiled with two options for the ceremony. You can get married outdoors beneath the flower-draped Garden Pavilion with scenic countryside views or opt for an indoor ceremony in the bright, airy Blossom room featuring arched windows. The pretty gardens provide tranquil photo backdrops throughout the day and evening. This historic wedding venue in the Cotswolds has several nice spots for photos to give lots of variety to your album, and as The Pear Tree at Purton wedding photographer, I know the best locations to get the best out of your couple portraits photograph. The garden pavilion is festooned with lights and makes for great evening photos after the sunset! 

5. Award-winning venue with excellent Reviews From Past Couples
The Pear Tree Purton in Swindon has won many awards in its 30 years. It’s been featured in the Good Hotel Guide every year since 1992. It also won a Green Tourism Award in 2007, 2009, 2011, and 2013, and its kitchen team won two rosettes from the AA and three restaurant awards from the RAC.
