About

If you're thinking of a unique wedding venue that can offer stunning wildflower meadow and woodland settings for your ceremony and photographs, exciting flying displays to keep your guests entertained, and incredible up-close experiences with beautiful birds of prey, then look no further than the Hawk Conservancy Trust!

Surrounded by 22 acres of beautiful natural scenery, as well as majestic birds of prey, the Trust is a wedding venue like no other. As a licenced venue, the dedicated team have you under their wing from intimate ceremony to bustling reception, with food and entertainment covered along the way.

The Hawk Conservancy Trust offers a variety of stunning indoor and outdoor spaces for your celebrations, photographs, and even close encounters with owls, eagles, and more. Spoilt for choice with outdoor spaces, your dream ceremony and perfect wedding photos could be amongst the wildflower blooms, stunning woodland trees or with the glorious Test Valley hills as a backdrop. Once you have tied the knot, you can celebrate your special day with your family and friends, a fresh drink in hand, watching birds take to the sky in a spectacular flying display.

The Trust’s Griffon Rooms can be arranged to suit your needs and offer an intimate space with capacity of 50 guests for the ceremony and catering experience.

During your special day at the Trust, the events team will be on-hand to ensure that everything runs smoothly. There are a variety of catering options to choose from, including formal sit-down meals, hog roasts or a barbeque buffet. For celebrations that continue on whilst the sun sets, Feathers Restaurant can seat 100 guests in our bright and versatile space capable of accommodating a live band or DJ and dancefloor. Feathers Restaurant is fully licenced and has an extensive wine list, as well as a large choice of soft drinks, beers, lagers and spirits. A large patio space offers more room for guests to enjoy, giving you ample space to party to your hearts’ content.

All of the Trust’s wedding services can be expertly formulated into a customised package with every fine detail taken care of, ensuring your wedding day is like no other, allowing you to relax and enjoy the run up to and the day itself.
