The story
A Castle Wedding Near Utrecht
Kasteel de Haar stands in Haarzuilens, close to Utrecht, rising from imposing castle gardens and surrounded by old ornamental gardens and water features. The noble Van Zuylen family had it grandly rebuilt in the early 1900s as a place where they shared their wealth with the international elite. It is the largest castle in the Netherlands. The grounds hold the Rose Garden, a romantic little bridge, old gates and 55 hectares of gardens, with an English landscape park around the castle.
Couples can marry seven days a week, by day or in the evening, indoors or out. The old Chapel at the foot of the castle, with stained glass, medieval statues of saints and coloured paintings, seats 130 guests, and the Roman Garden, where the dahlias bloom from July to September, also seats 130. Outdoor weddings run from early May to the end of August, with the Chapel as the wet-weather option, and an intimate ceremony can take place at the Romantic Bridge. Dinner is served in the Laverie, the former museum restaurant, and the Koetshuis hosts the dance floor. Wedding photography in the grounds is reserved exclusively for couples who marry at the castle.
