Rates includes exclusive use of all function / public rooms.
You will need 50 guests staying overnight paying £75 per person B&B for their en-suite accommodation (based on two sharing a double en-suite) to qualify for the Special Wedding Package.
If you are unable to get guests to stay overnight, see our Ultimate Wedding Package. This does not require overnight guests, but is aimed at larger, 'local' weddings, where guests are within an hour's drive of the castle, so most won't stay the night.

These tables show savings under our Wedding Packages over our Regular Wedding Tariff.
Great savings are offered in return for you inviting guests to stay overnight.
We know our rates are highly competitive. If you find a similar quality and size of wedding venue offering a broadly comparable deal or package, including exclusive use, at a lower rate, we will look to match their rate or deal for any year up to 2021 inclusive.
The competing venue must be a comparable venue, not for example some pub offering a room for hire with sandwiches - which we would not bother to compete with!

Compare Last Minute Wedding Package against Regular Tariff |
There are two savings charts below, to compare the Last Minute Wedding Package against our Regular Tariff and our Wedding Packages.
The Regular Tariff is rarely chosen by Couples as the Wedding Packages offer much better value. Each wedding package removes or saves on venue hire by having Couples fill some bedrooms with their guests. We make up on B&B what we lose on Venue Hire. This formula is so popular that twice as many Couples now choose Craig y Nos Castle compared with five years ago.

The above saving is almost £4,000 saved over regular tariff, mainly due to the free venue hire.
The second comparison chart below compares Last Minute Wedding Package for 50 guests against our Saturday & Friday Wedding Package and our Midweek Wedding Package.
Before we added all the extras (Welcome Drinks worth £5, Canapes worth £3, Welsh Cakes worth £1, and the £10 discount on the 2 course Wedding Breakfast) to the Last Minute Wedding Package, someone once said they could not see much difference between a summer Midweek Wedding Package and our Last Minute / Winter Wedding Package. Well, there's a big difference now!
We saw a shift to midweek weddings in 2018 - 2020 over previous years. Before all the COVID postponements, in 2020 we had 60 midweek weddings booked (including some Last Minute weekday weddings and 31 Sunday weddings) compared with just 16 Sunday - Thursday weddings in 2017. Sundays are now seen as a 'weekend date' and are very popular. Half our Couples now choose midweek / Sunday weddings.

We've improved our Last Minute / Winter Wedding Package to encourage more Couples to choose a Winter wedding.
Winter weddings are popular, with 34 booked in 1st quarter 2020, compared with 7 in 1st quarter 2017. Taken together the Midweek and Last Minute Wedding Packages help spread our weddings more evenly throughout the year.
