Launde Abbey

Launde Abbey is a wonderful wedding venue set in the Leicestershire countryside close to the border with Rutland. The Abbey has great historical connections having been given to Thomas Cromwell by Henry VIII, it was then lived in by his son Gregory and his wife Elizabeth Seymour. Elizabeth was the sister of Jane Seymour, the third wife of Henry VIII. Launde also features in the book Wolf Hall written by Hilary Mantel. Now a place of quiet contemplation, Launde Abbey is a spiritual retreat for most of the year, but selected summer dates are available for weddings where you and your guests can celebrate at this breathtakingly beautiful place.
