Ceremony & Reception Options
The Ceremony
Camp Kátur does not hold a license for civil weddings. Most couples go to the
Registry Office a couple of days prior to their Big Day & sign the legal
documents then.
However, having your ceremony at Camp Kátur gives you the opportunity to
marry where you want, when you want and how you want.
Make your ceremony unique & personal.
You can work closely with some wonderfully fully trained personal ceremony
experts who will give your day & blessing the upmost personal touch & can
help you write the perfect vows.
“We don’t do conveyor-belt, formulaic ceremonies. What we do is bespoke,
contemporary and personal”
Jan Shillito a well known ceremonist in the area offers various options and
pricing to personalise your once in a life time commitment to each other.

If you go down to the woods today be sure
to catch some magical charm! Nestled
amongst beautiful tall pine trees lies an
open natural woodland area that can
accommodate up to 130 guests seated on
bench seats and up to 300 standing.
The area is naturally beautiful therefore
you should not need to do too much to it
other than dress it with a few buntings,
candles and flowers if you so wish.
