Just a stone’s throw from the Llangorse Lake in the Brecon Beacons sits the impressive Tall John’s House. The manor house is located amongst the rolling Welsh hills and private grounds with impressive lawns, mature trees and views across the valley. Built to celebrate the demise of the Spanish Armada, the property has been hosting weddings since 1588 and has a range of spaces available 
for events.

Interior of Tall John’s House

Those looking to stay the night can choose between the Honeysuckle Cottage, which sleeps eight on a self-catering basis or The Cochmans, which is a charming getaway for two. The manor house can also hold 20 on a staffed basis with breakfast included.

Celebrate in style
The restored Welsh barn looks across the Black Mountains and is available for weddings. Boasting two enchanting courtyards, underfloor heating, insulation, electric points, hard floors, integral toilets and a catering area, this charming space has it all. The team have created a light and airy room that retains the romance of the original building with slit windows, high beams and exposed brickwork. It can cater for 160 loved ones, and the split level granary can accommodate 80, with room for more people to stand in the gallery above.

Those looking for an intimate space can say their vows in the Drawing Room, located inside the manor house, with up to 20 friends and family.

Tall John’s can also cater for intimate or elopement weddings for up to 30 nearest and dearest in the manor house and granary.

We love...
Couples will receive a special breakfast basket on the morning after the wedding.

Celebrant vs registrar vs humanist celebrant: What's the difference? Ceremony Master explains... Choosing who will lead your wedding ceremony is an important decision, but understanding the difference between a registrar, an independent celebrant and a humanist celebrant can help you decide what's right for your day. From the legal requirements of getting married to creating a personal, meaningful ceremony that reflects your relationship, each option offers something different. A registrar takes care of the legal civil marriage, while an independent celebrant can create a bespoke ceremony tailored to your story, preferences and values. A humanist celebrant also leads a personal ceremony, but one rooted in humanist beliefs and a non-religious outlook. The important distinction is that not every celebrant is authorised to legally marry a couple, and the rules vary across the UK

Modern wedding rituals revealed as Brits bury sausages for the big day

For decades, the British wedding has followed a well-known rulebook of etiquette, from formal seating plans to three tier cakes. However, new research from Moonpig, the UK's leading online greeting card and gift retailer, has revealed that the nation is moving away from these traditions in favour of highly personal and often quirky rituals. The study of 1,500 Brits reveals that authenticity is winning over tradition. Six in ten (59%) believe a wedding should be a true reflection of the couple's personalities, even if it means breaking classic wedding etiquette. To ensure their day feels truly unique, many are turning to unconventional superstitions and spiritual services. Over one in five (22%) Brits said they have buried or would consider burying a sausage to guarantee good weather on their wedding day. Meanwhile, over a third (39%) would consider hiring an 'Etsy witch' or similar spiritualist to provide blessing rituals for their big day.
