After graduating from Oxford, Cazenove took holy orders in the Church of England. His first ecclesiastical posting was as vicar of St Mark's Church in Reigate. He later held the post of honorary canon of Rochester Cathedral. He married Letitia Georgiana Thomson in 1856, with the couple having three children. Cazenove died in August 1893 at Cranborne, Dorset. His grandson was the soldier Arnold Cazenove and his great-grandson was the actor Christopher Cazenove.
