We've already had a marriage proposal in the candle-lit 14" telescope observatory - under the eyepiece focussed on Jupiter!

Now, in response to popular demand, Kielder Observatory is now available as a wedding venue.

Kielder Observatory an incredibly beautiful, romantic and unique location for weddings and we have some wonderful contacts in and around Northumberland who can provide the most special catering, music, transport and accommodation so that we can design an unforgettable day for you and your guests. What better than stepping outside and treating your guests to some natural fireworks... the dark starry skies, a shooting star or two... or, as the Sun reaches its peak activity in 2012-2013, you might even be treated to the Northern Lights!

"Liz and I just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you so much again for such a wonderful evening. Liz and I had such a lovely (and instructive!) time, and she's still totally bouncing off the walls with the surprise and uniqueness of the experience. We will definitely stay in touch and will indeed bring back the family!" Nov 2011
