A Signature Ceremony and Reception Pairing

Queen’s Courtyard and King’s Great Hall together create one of the most recognizable wedding experiences at Castle Farms. Couples begin with an open-air ceremony inside the historic courtyard, surrounded by castle architecture and landscaped gardens.

Following the ceremony, guests transition through the property toward King’s Great Hall, where the reception unfolds beneath twelve iron chandeliers and towering windows overlooking the Reflection Pond. The result is a celebration designed for effortless flow — from vows to reception within the castle grounds.

An Outdoor Ceremony Within Historic Castle Walls

Queen’s Courtyard offers one of the most memorable ceremony settings at Castle Farms. The enclosed courtyard creates a private atmosphere while still providing open sky, natural light, and surrounding stone architecture.

The courtyard’s design allows guests to feel immersed in the castle environment while enjoying the openness of an outdoor ceremony.
