Revesby Estate looks ahead to packed summer of events

The Lincolnshire-based estate will host many events, including two wedding open days and the annual Revesby Country Fair. 

In partnership with The Tipi Tribe, the estate will be hosting two wedding open days and its much-anticipated country fair.

The wedding open days will provide couples with the opportunity to preview the estate’s newly launched wedding packages and meet suppliers, while Revesby Country Fair is a long-running celebration of the countryside which attracted record numbers last year.

The wedding open days will be held at Revesby Estate on 14th May and 2nd July from 11am until 3pm. Revesy Country Fair takes place on Saturday 6th August.

10 well-regarded local businesses specialising in rural weddings will be demonstrating their services at the wedding open days, including florists, photographers, cake makers, and the owners of Tipi Tribe which hosts magnificent celebrations in Revesby’s stunning grounds.

Then, more than 200 organisations will be demonstrating Lincolnshire’s finest crafts, food and drink for Revesby Country Fair. With cookery and flower competitions, running races, archery and terrier racing among the many events and activities, the fair is a dazzling event for the whole family.

Peter Wiggins-Davies, CEO of Revesby Estate, said:

“We are so excited to be hosting these events at the estate this summer and showcasing our beautiful surroundings.

“The whole team here at Revesby is particularly looking forward to the wedding open days – we have so much to offer in terms of views, space and versatility!

“As guests enter the grounds through the original gates, they will be met with deer roaming in the neighbouring parkland and the rose arboretum – which they will be able to enjoy drinks receptions in if they were to book their special day with us.”

For the wedding open days, the unmissable Tipi Tribe tipis will be on full display – kitted out by suppliers so couples can visualise what it may look like on their wedding day.

Joining them at the estate will be several local businesses, including Rosedale House Floral Design, Lola and Joel Photography, Steven Haddock Photography, 2 of Harps, Vdubvintage, Cake and Thistle, Emma Lane Designs and Hancocks Menswear.

Each of the suppliers is very familiar with Revesby Estate and couples will have the opportunity to chat with all of them about what they can offer to create the perfect wedding day for any couple.

Jon Oaten, Owner at The Tipi Tribe, said:

“We are very excited to be building a new tipi venue with Revesby Estate. The tipis are a fun, relaxed space to celebrate your wedding, with the estate offering the most incredible rural setting – it’s a perfect match!

“Now the grounds are also licensed, the tipis will host some beautiful bespoke ceremonies with the backdrop of the rose arbour.

“The list of local suppliers will continue to grow to offer a great one-stop shop package for couples, to make their wedding plans as simple and stress-free as possible. We will be on hand to help our clients, every step of the way.”

There is no need to book a place in advance – couples are welcome to simply turn up on the day.

The price for weddings at Revesby Estate is £6,999, which includes three tipis, bar service and a stretch tent with extras. As Revesby Estate is now licenced for wedding ceremonies, couples will have the opportunity to get married within the Rose Arbour or under a stretch marquee in adverse weather conditions.

For the return of Revesby Country Fair for 2023 on Sunday 6th August, visitors can look forward to an array of entertainment and local food stalls. Attractions include Bolddog FMX display team, On Point Archery, Back 2 Bear knife & axe throwing, clay pigeon shooting and more than 200 trade stands.

The Revesby Estate team will also be in attendance at the show, with firewood available to purchase or order at a discounted one-off show price.

As in previous years, there will also be an equine competition at the show, with classes available including show jumping, mounted fancy dress and shire horses.

The estate is also once again hosting ‘Race the Estate’ – a series of running races through the beautiful landscape, organised by Trident Sports – on the morning of the fair.
