Why You Shouldn’t Overlook Late Availability Weddings at Solton Manor

Solton Manor holds weddings all year round, across five licensed spaces, each with its own character and charm:

• Godric’s Garden – romantic outdoor vows beneath an oak-thatched gazebo available during British Summer Time
• Finet’s Woodland – a storybook glade filled with birdsong (opening 2026 available during British Summer Time) 
• The Great Hall – intimate, oak-floored, and steeped in history.
• The Old Stables – newly converted, light-filled, and elegant.
• The Dutch Barn – rustic-industrial and ideal for dining and dancing.

With both midweek and weekend dates occasionally available, you can enjoy exclusive use of the estate for one, two, or even three nights — transforming their wedding into a relaxed Staycation Celebration.

Planning a wedding on a shorter timescale brings a sense of momentum and excitement all its own. Our small, dedicated team has years of experience coordinating weddings of every size and timeline, ensuring nothing feels rushed, only refined.

At Solton Manor, we take care of the details that matter most. We reserve your ceremony date and time directly with Kent County Council, provide a curated page of trusted local suppliers, and give every couple access to Sonas Weddings & Events, our online planning portal designed to help you manage your booking with ease.

From confirming your registrar and suppliers to styling support, and on site guest accommodation in our Manor House or Dovecote Cottage, and logistics, we’re here to make the process seamless from start to finish.

If you have a demanding workload or are navigating a particularly emotional time, we recommend working with an experienced wedding planner to help streamline decisions and keep the process calm and enjoyable. We find being decisive is the greatest gift you can give yourselves, and our team will guide you every step of the way.

1. Check our current dates – Contact our team directly, either by email [email protected] or ring 01304 448844 to see which late availability dates have opened up. These change regularly, so early enquiry is key.
2. Arrange a private viewing – Come and explore the Manor, Dutch Barn, and grounds, and begin to imagine how your day could look.
3. Confirm your ceremony licence – We’ll guide you through booking your registrar, who may sometimes have availability with as little as 31 days’ notice.
4. Secure your suppliers – We’ll connect you with our trusted network of florists, caterers, photographers, and entertainment partners who can bring your plans to life beautifully and efficiently.

If you thought you’d have to wait another year (or more) to walk down the aisle, think again.  At Solton Manor, centuries of history meet heartfelt hospitality, allowing you to celebrate sooner, surrounded by beauty and care.
