Why December Is One of the Most Magical Times to Get Married at Leonardslee
There is something undeniably magical about saying I do in winter.
As the Sussex countryside settles into the quiet beauty of the season, our vineyards become beautifully still, the woodland takes on a gentle winter charm and every celebration feels a little more intimate.
At Leonardslee Wine Estate, we believe winter is one of the most enchanting times to begin your next chapter together. It is a season for gathering the people you love, raising a glass of English sparkling wine and creating memories that feel timeless.
If you have been dreaming of a wedding that feels elegant, relaxed and filled with seasonal magic, we would be delighted to welcome you to Leonardslee Wine Estate.

The Magic Is Already Here
One of the things couples love most about a December wedding at Leonardslee is the atmosphere the season naturally brings.
Throughout the festive period, our venue is dressed with elegant seasonal styling, including sparkling ceiling swagging, a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, shimmering baubles and thoughtfully styled table centrepieces. The result is warm, welcoming and effortlessly breathtaking, allowing you to spend less time thinking about décor and more time enjoying every moment.
Celebrate with English Sparkling Wine and Seasonal Dining
At Leonardslee, every celebration begins with a toast.
We will welcome your guests with a glass of Leonardslee English Sparkling Wine, or an elderflower fizz for those choosing a non-alcoholic option, before serving a seasonal three-course wedding breakfast designed to bring everyone together around the table.
As the evening unfolds, bacon baps and chips provide the perfect late-night treat before dancing continues into the night. It is often these thoughtful touches that become guests favourite memories.
