The Ravenswood is an historic hotel operating as a dedicated Wedding venue.
With parts of the building dating back to the 15th Century! A number of stunning and contrasting ceremony spaces for indoor and outdoor ceremonies – including the Old Baronial Hall, The Jacobean suite, The Princess Beatrice Suite, and outside, the Little Castle, and beautiful mature woodland and a small lake, with a Boathouse, Ruins and concealing a ‘Secret Garden’.
I was so encouraged meeting the wedding co-ordinators and events team – such a friendly welcome from Katie, Molly, Dawn, Natalie, Talia, Ellie and Liz. I was happy to hear that the team at the Ravenswood are very aware of the differences between a Celebrant-led ceremony and a Registrar-led ceremony.
Yours truly, Wedding Celebrant Mark Inscoe (Civil Celebrant Sussex) in the Jacobean Suite – with beautiful autumnal display (by Mulberry Events).
