Hopefully here we can answer some common questions about your Wedding Hall in Essex.
Yes our Wedding Hall is in Essex, located approximately an 45 minute drive from Harlow and is easily reached via major roads and under half an hour away from Stanstead Airport, for your far flung guests. We often host Harlow couples and can help plan guest travel or coach hire if needed.
We found an old pub, nestled in the heart of Rural Essex, immediately realised the potential of our idyllic surroundings and decided we had to share it with prospective couples.
Our approach to planning weddings is a rare outlier compared to the rest of the weddings industry; we try to use as few pre-organised packages as possible. This is your wedding so you are in control and we will accommodate as much as possible. If have specific suppliers in mind, be it florists, DJ’s or decorators, they are more than welcome, we will use it as an opportunity to expand our contacts for happy couples of the future.
Our prices vary, not between seasons but by time of the week. Check out our pricing page to find out what works best for you.
If you want to book over the summer we do get busy over peak summer Saturdays. Booking early secures the best dates for you and ensures you have ample time for planning, suppliers, and venue meetings. However, the best thing to do to check with us is to contact us.
Of course! We can offer in-person tours with our in-house wedding planners so that any questions you have can be answered there and then. If you can’t get away from work or have a longer journey, we also offer an online tour and floor plans so that you can still see our wedding hall, and any questions you have can be answered over email or online meeting, whatever works for you. Contact us to see our tour availability or request the online resources.
