We See You, Tom and Zendaya—We'd Get Married at Beaverbrook, Too

The stars of Spider-Man celebrated their wedding at one of the UK's best country house hotelsLaryssaerrattLast year, when I was searching for the perfect venue for my wedding, I must have looked at more than 50 different options. Finding somewhere well within budget, in the ideal location, in keeping with your vision, with plenty of accommodation options nearby, and that just feels right is no mean feat. I’m sure for Zendaya and Tom Holland, budget concerns weren’t really an issue, but they also had to consider total privacy for themselves and their friends and family, making sure there were no leaks to the press and no random guests wandering in on their ceremony.The staircase in the entrance hall of Beaverbrook The Coach House Spa at Beaverbrook is one of a kind Rumor has it that the Spider-Man stars got legally married a couple of months ago in a private ceremony with just their families. But this week, news broke that they hosted a bigger wedding celebration in one of the UK’s most lauded country house hotels.The views from The Dining Room, the Japanese-fusion restaurant at Beaverbrook Where did Zendaya and Tom Holland get married?Several news outlets, from The Times to The Cut, have reported that the couple celebrated their marriage at Beaverbrook in Surrey. This countryside estate is one of the UK’s most beautiful hotels, home to a stunning spa, sprawling gardens, and excellent restaurants. Below, we’ve outlined all the reasons we think it's the perfect place for the happy couple to celebrate their marriage.Why Beaverbrook was the perfect choice for Zendaya and Tom Holland's weddingSir Frank's Bar in Beaverbrook Dimly lit interiors create a romantic atmosphere Location, location, locationLocation-wise, it’s pretty ideal for Zendaya and Tom. The couple is rumored to live in Richmond in south-west London—not far from where Tom grew up in Kingston upon Thames. Beaverbrook is only around 40 minutes from Richmond by car, so the couple was close enough to pop by for site visits, food tastings, or any other last-minute matters. Beaverbrook is well-loved for its prime location—close enough to be reached from the city in under an hour, yet with the feeling of a proper countryside escape. For this wedding, I presume plenty of high-profile guests were invited, and the hotel is well-placed for access from private terminals at Heathrow, London City, and Farnborough Airport—although the hotel also has a helipad on site.The Kitchen Garden at Beaverbrook There are 470 acres of land across the Beaverbrook estate The gorgeous gardensBeaverbrook is spread across a sprawling 470 acres, so there is plenty of space for wedding guests to go for a stroll or spend some time alone. Plus, there are so many beautiful settings and backdrops for wedding pictures, from the sparkling lake to the manicured lawns and the Italian garden. Zendaya and Tom are notoriously private, so I don’t know if we’ll ever get to see any wedding snaps, but I can absolutely picture a shot in the middle of rugged gardens and wildflowers, with rolling Surrey hills behind them. The morning of the wedding could be spent escaping the madness for a moment of peace among the trees, or arranging a pre-wedding morning coffee overlooking the estate. It’s a perfectly romantic setting.Dappled sunlight in the Coach House Spa The entrance of the Coach House Spa The spaZendaya and Tom famously don’t drink—Tom launched his alcohol-free beer brand, Bero, in TK. But for their guests, the Coach House Spa is the ultimate place to wash away a post-party hangover. Enter a kaleidoscopic space with dappled light filtering through stained-glass windows and holistic treatments designed to totally restore and refresh. The newlyweds could book into the Meadow Hut – hidden away in the gardens for total privacy. I had the best massage of my life in this hut, a mix of deep tissue, shiatsu, and Ayurvedic techniques that left me feeling completely rejuvenated.Bedrooms in the Village are themed around different British writers Romantic roomsThe Beaverbrook estate is massive, so there’s plenty of room for your entire wedding party if you book out the entire hotel (and if you have the cash to splash, à la Zendaya and Tom). The rooms in the main house are quintessentially English, with historic architecture, four-poster beds, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Surrey hills. There’s an entire separate village just a short buggy ride away, with each room themed around a different British author. But for the happy couple, perhaps one of the private houses is more suitable. There’s the Garden House and the Coach House, each as rustic and romantic as the other, but the Dower House is the ultimate private residence, complete with 60 private acres, a swimming pool, spa treatment room, dedicated butler, private chef, and a house Aston Martin (obviously).Cozy corners of Sir Frank's Bar The clashing colors and patterns of Beaverbrook interiors Excellent interiorsWith a total of 56 rooms across the Beaverbrook estate – and possibly some guests choosing to stay elsewhere nearby or travel in from the city – we wouldn't be surprised if this wedding felt like one big slumber party. There are so many epic drawing rooms, decadent bars, and cosy corners to spend the evening dancing, chatting, and soaking up the atmosphere, and with bedrooms either just up the sprawling staircase or a short golf buggy ride away, you can slink away at whatever time you choose.A version of this story originally appeared on Condé Nast Traveller UK.Olivia Morelli is Condé Nast Traveller's senior digital writer.
