Venue History: The story of De Courceys starts back in 1890 when the imaginative Mr. Hamilton De Courcey had a magnificent wooden hunting lodge shipped over from his native Sweden to placate his homesick wife. When the testament to his love sadly burnt down in the late 80's the owners decided to rebuild on the present site to keep his legacy alive.
The Manor was designed with a vision and commitment to fine dining excellence and to ensure that De Courceys remained truly unique.
vThat is still the case and De Courceys certainly needs to be seen to be believed.

Wedding Trivia:
CAKE
In the 1st century B.C. in Rome, the cake was thrown at the bride or broken over her head as one of the many fertility symbols which then were a part of the marriage ceremony. Cutting the wedding cake together, still a predominant ritual at weddings, symbolizes the couple's unity, their shared future, and their life together as one. The three tiered cake is believed to have been inspired by the spire of Saint Bride's Church in London, England.
