Description
Arrive at least a night before your wedding to make the most of everything we have to offer to ensure you're fully relaxed and rested. After dinner, head to the tranquil hydrotherapy pool and sauna to unwind before heading to your room for the best night's sleep of your life.
Waking up in the uber-luxe Bridal suite, make your way to your private wraparound balcony and take in the panoramic views of Kent's rolling countryside. Finally, your big day has arrived and what better way to toast it than with a glass of perfectly chilled Champagne as you prepare to dazzle your waiting guests.
Our beautiful pergola is a magical setting for your ceremony, every part of which can be tailored with our dedicated wedding team to reflect your personality as a couple. Whether you want whimsical and romantic, or vibrant and modern, your wish is our command.
After saying ‘I do’, the Cowgirl Room is a private area and the ideal space for you and up to 100 guests to be wined and dined.
In line with our ethos that a wedding should be all about faultless food, fantastic company and a joyful shared experience, the Cowgirl Room is a blank canvas for you to decorate however you choose; anything goes!
Forget stuffy, sit-down three-course dinners, Cave wedding menus are an exciting sensory journey of colourful sharing dishes, delivering huge flavours that everyone will love getting involved in. The antithesis of a traditional wedding menu, its all about pairing incredible flavours and ultimately sharing an impressive feast with your friends and family.
Accommodating up to 200 evening guests, the outside space is also exclusively yours for the day, with casual seating for your friends and family to sit back and be utterly wowed by your personalised firework spectacular that will finish your night.

Describe the best wedding that happened at Cave Hotel ?
At the Cave Hotel, we've had the pleasure of hosting many beautiful weddings, but one that truly stands out is the wedding of Sarah and David.
The couple exchanged vows in a breath-taking ceremony surrounded by soft candlelight and their nearest and dearest. The reception was held in our enchanting Marquee venue, which was adorned with elegant floral arrangements and twinkling lights, creating a truly magical atmosphere. The guests enjoyed a sumptuous Firepit feast of delicious cuisine, followed by an epic firework display. It was truly a fairy tale wedding that the happy couple and their guests will never forget.
