Černokostelecký pivovar, a historic brewery in Kostelec nad Černými lesy east of Prague, hosts weddings with a ceremony, a meal and a party on one site. The official site names four wedding spaces, the Wedding Meadow, the Mill, the Humno and the Kompresorovna, and speaks of weddings from an intimate group to about two hundred guests. The brewery also houses the National Museum of Brewing.
Weddings and receptions
The brewery offers many spaces for the ceremony, the meal, entertainment and wedding photographs. Whether the day is small or for around two hundred wedding guests, the team says it will find a fit. The Wedding Meadow, the Mill, the Humno and the Kompresorovna are listed as the main settings, and the courtyard is also used. Spaces and tables are decorated in your colours and style by the brewery's own florist.
Because the buildings are listed as a national cultural monument, guests cannot be left unattended in the historic spaces, and decoration is done only by the in-house florist. Own decorations are not recommended. Fireworks and open flame are not allowed anywhere on the site, confetti is not permitted, and sparklers are allowed in the courtyard only. Bubble blowers are suggested instead.
Rooms and capacities
The site names four spaces but gives no capacity for any of them. Ask the team for the number of guests per space and layout. Parking for dozens of cars is available on site.
Accommodation
A few rooms for wedding guests are available directly in the brewery, and more hotel-type accommodation can be arranged within walking distance. Pets are welcome at the wedding but cannot stay in the rooms.
Catering
Catering is by the brewery: home cooking, craft smoked specialties, desserts and the brewery's own hospitality. Guests cannot bring their own food, and no outside spirits are allowed. You can bring wine, with a corkage fee, and a cake or desserts, with a service fee per person. At the wedding only the brewery's own beers are served. The menu is composed with you and adapted to allergies and dietary needs.
The team can also arrange other suppliers, such as make-up, photographer, videographer, musicians and a DJ.
History and setting
The brewery is a national cultural monument and the home of the National Museum of Brewing. Its yards, cellars and technical areas have long served film crews, and the wedding page mentions the film Postřižiny as the atmosphere. The brewery received heritage awards from the National Heritage Institute in 2025.
