Dry Hire Weddings: Celebrate Your Way

Dry Hire Weddings at Glow Events: Celebrate Your Way

Weddings should be a true reflection of who you are – your story, your style, your culture. That’s why our dry hire package is the perfect choice for couples who want the freedom to create something completely personal, without the restrictions of a set package.

At Glow Events, we offer dry hire across our breathtaking venues in Kent – including our romantic castle, enchanting orangery and picturesque gardens– giving you the flexibility to bring your vision to life with your own trusted suppliers and unique ideas.

Why choose Dry Hire?

Dry hire is all about freedom and flexibility. You’ll have exclusive use of the venue and the ability to create a wedding day that feels authentic to you. Whether you’re planning a traditional cultural celebration, a fusion of styles, or something entirely original, dry hire puts you in control.

Here’s why it works so well:

• Design every detail – From your décor and entertainment to the day’s timings and flow, you’re free to create a wedding that’s completely your own.
• Celebrate cultural traditions – Our venues are well-suited to large cultural or religious weddings, with spaces for prayer, flexible layouts, and experience in hosting events across many traditions.
• Bring your dream team – Choose your own wedding planner, stylists, florists and more – and work with one of our approved catering partners to craft a delicious, personalised menu for your guests.
• Spacious, elegant settings – Our dry hire venues can host up to 300 guests, giving you the room to celebrate in style with all your loved ones.
• Support when you need it – While you’re in the driving seat creatively, our professional team is still on hand to help your day run smoothly behind the scenes.

Dry hire is ideal for couples who have a strong vision and want to work with their own suppliers, but still want the assurance of a beautiful venue and an experienced events team to support them.

What’s included in our packages

Our dry hire package includes exclusive use of the venue and grounds, access to our online planning portal, use of tables, chairs, glassware, and linen, a fully staffed bar, complimentary parking, and use of our catering kitchen by one of our trusted catering partners.

Everything you need to bring your day together – with the freedom to make it your own.

Let’s create a wedding that’s uniquely yours
