Weald and Downland Open Air Museum

The Weald and Downland Open Air Museum is a unique location for your wedding and a tranquil haven from the rush and noise of modern living. Here, over 40 historic buildings set in a beautiful 19th century park provide an outstanding backdrop for your great day.
Wedding ceremonies, for up to 50 seated guests, will take place in Crawley Hall. The main feature of this 15th century building is the hall on the first floor. This first floor room is a long, open timber-framed room; it may have originally been a communal meeting place. It may well have been used to celebrate a wedding! Crawley Hall is not usually open to the public.
One of the attractions of Crawley Hall as a wedding venue is that, on any one day, and unlike many hotels and registry offices there will not be a queue of weddings. We will only book one wedding per day. Wedding parties are able to set their own pace for their own day but the legally binding words of the ceremony must be said before 6pm.
