Big news from us at Danby Castle Barn – and we mean pop-the-cork big. We’re thrilled to announce The Gilchrist Collection’s sparkling new Chapel Down partnership, England’s leading and most celebrated winemaker, bringing a fresh layer of luxury to your celebration! That’s right, your special day just got a major glow-up, with a fresh new way to add a little extra joy to all the best moments.
A Toast to Unforgettable Moments
Starting now, our venue will be offering curated upgrades featuring a selection of Chapel Down wines. Picture this: You’ve just said “I do,” the sun is shining, your guests are glowing, and glasses are clinking with crisp, cool English sparkling wine. Iconic? Pretty much.
Whether you’re adding a touch of elegance to your drinks reception, making your top table feel extra VIP, or simply looking to elevate those precious getting ready moments, our new Chapel Down upgrades offer the perfect splash of luxury.
Not Just Any Wine…
This isn’t just any old drink. Chapel Down’s Sparkling Rosé recently took home the ‘Best in Show’ award at the 2024 Decanter World Wine Awards – an honour reserved for the 50 best wines in the entire world. That’s above Gold. Above Platinum. Global elite status. So yeah, it’s kind of a big deal…

And the prestige doesn’t stop there. Chapel Down has been chosen to celebrate some of Britain’s biggest moments – from the Royal Wedding of William and Kate (Prince and Princess of Wales), to Royal Ascot, the Oxford & Cambridge Boat Race, and even England cricket’s Man of the Match. Basically, if it’s a major moment worth celebrating, there’s a good chance Chapel Down is involved.
A Love Story That Lasts
What makes this even more special? You can buy Chapel Down wines long after the confetti’s settled. So when your first anniversary rolls around (or you just want to relive the magic on a Tuesday), grab a bottle and raise a glass to forever. Every time you hear “Chapel Down,” you’ll be transported right back to that moment.

Let’s Celebrate, Differently
We believe weddings should be as unique and memorable as the love stories behind them. That’s why we’re always looking for ways to elevate the experience for our couples. This exclusive Chapel Down wedding partnership is all about creating those unforgettable, joy-filled moments – from the very first toast to the last dance.
So go on, add the sparkle. Add the story. Add the celebration.
Because with The Gilchrist Collection and Chapel Down, there’s always a fresher way to celebrate.🥂
