Situated in the Brecon Beacons and surrounded by acres of tranquil countryside is the impressive Craig Y Nos Castle. Back in 1878, the property captivated Adelina Patti, the leading opera star of the day, who decided to make the castle her home. With a rich history, the hotel combines historic architecture with grand colours to make a stand out wedding venue. Visitors will be able to engage in a tour, book one of the 36 en suite bedrooms and enjoy the bar, private lounge and gym.

Celebrate in style
The Theatre (120) is one of only eight Grade I listed opera houses in the UK. The area has a 125-year-old curtain depicting Madame Patti on a chariot in Rossini’s last Italian opera and the walls are decorated with the names of Patti’s favourite composes.

The Music Room and Billard Room are also available to create space for a further 120 friends and family.

Receptions are held in the Conservatory, with a maximum capacity of 130 loved ones.

We love...
The Patti Bar and Nicolini Lounge are located in the centre of the castle and are available for guests to use throughout their stay.

Experts Warn Against Using AI for Wedding Vows

Experts Warn Against Using AI for Wedding Vows

With peak wedding season approaching, experts are warning couples not to rely on AI to write one of the most personal parts of their big day – their vows. A survey by jewellers Queensmith has revealed that more than half (55%) of UK brides and grooms are now using AI tools to help write their wedding vows and speeches, raising questions about authenticity, originality and even potential legal grey areas. The findings come amid a growing debate around AI-written vows after a registrar in the eastern Netherlands saw a marriage called into question when AI was used to help write the ceremony script. In the case, the District Court of Overijssel ruled that "no marriage has been established" after it emerged the registrar had relied on ChatGPT to draft parts of the ceremony. The case has sparked wider concerns that AI-generated wording could unintentionally mirror existing vows or scripts found online, raising questions about originality and authenticity.
