Functions & Hospitality at Hickstead - Weddings



“On Course to the Perfect Day”
(Your Sussex Weddings magazine, April/May 2009)

The All England Jumping Course, Hickstead allows couples to “indulge their passion” on Sussex’s renowned equestrian venue.

Set in 200 acres of beautiful Sussex countryside, the sky really is the limit if you choose Hickstead! Make your day one that your guests will remember by arriving in a horse and carriage, or being flown onto the hallowed turf of the famous International Arena by helicopter, or even play laser clay pigeon shooting during the drinks reception!



Licensed for civil marriages, and with a suite of ceremony and reception rooms to choose from, we guarantee that it really will be a ‘special day’. From 50 – 250 guests, your wish really is our command.

Couples will have exclusive use of the venue allowing fantastic photographic opportunities and space for children (and grown men) to play in the arena! The venue is also made available the day before the wedding so that it can be dressed to perfection allowing the bride to relax and enjoy her pampering and attention on her big day.





A full time wedding planner is always on hand with aspiring and innovative ideas, and advice on every aspect of the day, from tailor-made menus to floral decorations. On your big day itself, they are there to ensure all aspects of the day are run as the couple have planned - so all that is left for the bride and groom to do is to enjoy their very special day.
