Your guests can wander ahead to our welcoming restaurant for celebratory drinks, giving you time to soak in the moment and capture the magic of your day. The breathtaking Winchester Cathedral grounds also provide a stunning backdrop for timeless wedding portraits

Entertainment
When dinner is over, the celebrations don’t have to end there! One of the rooms can be transformed into a stunning space for dancing, allowing you and your guests to truly make the most of your special occasion.

THE BLACK ROOM
“A huge thank you for a fabulous evening. The whole night went so well and we all had a fantastic time at Forte Kitchen. Everyone said how excellent the food was, and Mum and I were so grateful to you for ensuring her allergies were fully catered for, so thank you, we appreciate how tricky it can be! The room looked great, and the venue was perfect.”
