Alex Griffiths is the owner and host of The Citadel, an exclusive-use marquee wedding venue tucked away in the North Shropshire countryside. For more than 15 years, she's welcomed couples from across the UK to celebrate their weddings here, sharing her knowledge, guidance and warm hospitality every step of the way.
Through The Citadel Journal, Alex reflects on real weddings, offers planning inspiration, and shares the stories that make this hidden corner of Shropshire so special.
Planning your own wedding? We'd love to welcome you for a private viewing of The Citadel.

The Citadel has been home to just three families in over 200 years. For 75 of those, the Griffiths family has lovingly cared for the house and gardens, curating them for future generations.
