Scorrier has a licence to host civil ceremonies in the house and garden. However, you will need to arrange for a registrar to officiate the ceremony and marry you. The registrar's office is a division of Cornwall Council called My Cornwall Wedding.

Celebrants

An alternative to having registrars officiate your ceremony at Scorrier is to use a celebrant. Registrars offer this service, as do independent celebrants (who cannot legally marry you). A celebrant can offer more flexibility in terms of the timing and structure of the ceremony itself. If you would like to explore this option, we would recommend Sara Price, Sabine at Perfect Day Ceremonies or Kim at Humanist Ceremonies.

Church Ceremonies

Cornwall has some incredible historic churches. Scorrier sits within the 'Five Saints Cluster' of St Paul's Chacewater, St Stythians Stithians, St Wenappa Gwennap, Holy Trinity St Day and St Piran's Mission Church Carharrack. This is overseen by the Rev'd Canon Jem Thorold who can be contacted here.

Further afield, there are popular churches in Saint Agnes, Truro, Mylor and many more along both coasts of Cornwall.

Marquees & Stretch Tents

You must notify Scorrier House if you wish to have a marquee during your wedding so we can ensure the setup and takedown do not interfere with other events taking place at the house.

With the exception of small gazebos (structures with a footprint no larger than 4 sqm), any marquee must be supplied by a professional marquee company (such as those listed here).

Scorrier House is licensed for 160 people so if your wedding reception is more than 160 people, then you must have a marquee (if it's more than 130 we generally advise having a marquee but its not essential. This can be used for your wedding breakfast or dancing or both.

Absolute Canvas

Absolute Canvas has put up numerous marquees of varying sizes on the lawn by the conservatory. We recommend the windowed panels on the side facing the parkland to give the best view (these can be undone and rolled up in hot weather). Power can be supplied from the house so there's no need for a generator. Add-ons include hard flooring, dance floor, lighting and linings.

Jabula Stretch Tents

_E6A4093

If you don't require a marquee and yet you want to have some elements of your wedding day outside (be it drinks, speeches or dancing) you might consider a stretch tent. These are much cheaper than a marquee, come in all different sizes and are a good insurance against the Cornish weather. Jabular are regulars at Scorrier for both festivals and weddings and have a great selection of different stretch tents.

Music

There is a huge range of musicians, bands and DJs who can play at your wedding. To make things easier, we've divided 'music' into three categories: Day-time classical or acoustic acts who can play during the ceremony or the drinks reception; bands that will play during your first dance and general evening dancing; and DJs that can either play before or after the band or replace them altogether. Some acoustic acts can double up as your band/DJ so are listed multiple times here.
