Swanley Meadows - Tipi Weddings & Events

A relaxed, rural tipi wedding venue set on our family’s former dairy farm in Cheshire. Think wildflower meadows, festoon lights, and the freedom to celebrate your love your way - without assumptions or expectations.

We don’t tie you to set menus or in-house options. Bring in your favourite caterers - from street food vans to fine dining. We’re happy to recommend brilliant, inclusive suppliers who get your vibe.

When it’s your day, it’s your space - no one else’s. You'll also have access the afternoon before so you can set up or decorate as you wish!

While we don’t have permanent accommodation on-site, we work with a trusted bell tent supplier to create gorgeous glamping villages for you and your guests. We also have great relationships with local hotels, cottages, and B&Bs and can help with recommendations and transport coordination.

We offer a clear, transparent cancellation policy in our booking terms. I f you cancel before 6 week prior, we retain your deposit. We’re also human - so if life throws a curveball, we’ll do our best to work with you compassionately and fairly.
