Highlights of the venue
Sasha Masters, Wedding Sales Manager at The Stones Hotel, shares what makes this venue such a dream wedding destination:
“The Stones Hotel combines stylish spaces, scenic countryside views and flexible wedding packages – all just outside Salisbury. We offer both indoor and outdoor ceremony options, dry hire availability and tailored support to suit each couple’s vision. What makes us stand out is our personal approach. From your first visit to the big day itself, our experienced team is by your side to make everything seamless.

With plenty of room to personalise and a team that’s all about making your vision come to life, this is a venue that truly adapts to you.
Every wedding at The Stones Hotel is treated as one of a kind. Fancy an outdoor ceremony? The landscaped gardens offer a gorgeous setting for your vows. Prefer something indoors? Step into the Solstice Suite – a light and spacious blank canvas ready for you to make your own. Whether your style is minimal and modern or full-on floral, this space can take it.
Planning something a little more low-key? The hotel also has smaller, cosy rooms that are perfect for intimate celebrations. And with wedding packages designed to suit a range of styles and budgets, you’ll have the freedom to choose exactly what works for you – with all the joy and none of the stress.
Memorable moments
The Stones Hotel has been home to many standout weddings, each with its own personal touches and unique stories. Sasha relates one particularly memorable and joyful celebration at the venue:
“The bride arrived in a vintage VW camper, and guests were welcomed with an elderflower fizz cocktails and live acoustic music as they took their seats. The couple wrote their own vows, which had everyone laughing and tearing up in equal measure. After the ceremony, guests enjoyed lawn games and prosecco on the terrace while we transformed the Solstice Suite into a romantic reception space. Their dog, Luna, even made a special appearance in a floral collar as the “best dog” – a first for us, and definitely a crowd-pleaser! What made their day so special were the personal touches and how relaxed and joyful the atmosphere was. The couple later told us that having a team who genuinely cared made all the difference and that their wedding felt like them from start to finish.”
Expert advice
Sasha studied Event Management at uni, and was from the very start, “drawn to the creativity, detail and emotion involved in weddings”. Since then, she has been a dedicated wedding planner for nearly 9 years. “What I love most about this industry is that no two weddings are ever the same. Each couple brings their own story, style and energy, which makes every day different and exciting. Being part of such a joyful and memorable chapter in people’s lives is incredibly rewarding, and it’s that happiness and buzz that make this industry so special to me.”
When it comes to expert wedding planning advice, Sasha encourages couples to focus on what matters most to them:
“Don’t lose sight of what the day is really about – you and your partner. It’s easy to get caught up in trends, opinions and little details, but the most memorable weddings are the ones that truly reflect the couple. Focus on what feels meaningful to you both, and everything else will fall into place.”
