Weddings come with a long list of traditions, opinions and expectations – so much so, it can feel like you’re planning a day for everyone else rather than yourselves. At Prestwold Hall we love the growing trend for ‘weddings your way’. More and more couples are planning weddings that reflect who they are and what they love. And it all starts with the venue.
The right space doesn’t just provide a backdrop, it sets the tone for your whole wedding day. So, naturally, you want to get it right. Prestwold Hall definitely delivers on the wow-factor, but we’re as far from the traditional, stuffy country house venue as you can get. Our flexible Leicestershire venue is all about celebrating individuality and making sure every wedding day is completely unique. Here’s how…
Adjustable layouts to suit your day
Flexibility is key when it comes to your wedding venue. Instead of being limited to fixed layouts or traditional setups, our team can help you arrange the space in a way that matches your wedding style.
Maybe you love the traditional feel of round tables, or prefer a more informal, dinner-party feel with long feasting tables? Perhaps you’re loving the trend for sociable caterpillar tables? Whatever vision you have for your wedding breakfast, we can bring it to life at Prestwold Hall.
One thing that won’t change? Prestwold Hall’s spectacular period interiors, which will create a luxe backdrop to any kind of reception setup.
Personalised décor style
If you’re worried that a historic wedding venue limits you when it comes to décor style, think again. Prestwold Hall’s antique interiors are surprisingly versatile and work as a gorgeous canvas for all kinds of wedding themes. We’ve seen couples transform our stately home with glamorous monochrome styling, sumptuous botanical themes, boho-luxe touches, and so much more. Whether you’re after a cute English Country Garden vibe or a modern, maximalist look, Prestwold Hall makes the coolest setting.
Bespoke ceremony options
Whatever kind of ceremony you have in mind, we’ve got you covered at Prestwold Hall. The Library is one of our indoor options, full of character and elegance. With a roaring fire in winter or sunshine pouring through the windows on a summer’s day, it’s a magical setting to say your ‘I do’s.
If you have your heart set on a church ceremony, St. Andrew’s is a stone’s throw from Prestwold’s front door. Or, if you love the romance of alfresco vows, our Georgian gazebo, tucked away in Prestwold’s picturesque gardens, is the prettiest of outdoor ceremony options.
Multi-day celebrations
Sometimes one day just isn’t enough, which is why we offer flexible multi-day wedding packages for couples who want to stretch the celebrations out a little longer. We can accommodate American traditions like the rehearsal dinner the night before, or simply create an intimate dining experience for you and your closest friends and family as you chat over last-minute details. The day after the wedding, we can cook up a hearty brunch for you and your overnight guests as you reminisce over the best day ever. Talk to the Prestwold Hall team about what you have in mind for your multi-day wedding and we can help plan it together.
Cultural celebrations and multi-faith weddings
We’ve been lucky enough to host some unforgettable multicultural weddings at Prestwold Hall. From traditional ceremonies and cultural rituals that require specific setups to vibrant reception parties, our versatile space can do it all.
Hosting beautiful weddings of every size
From luxurious micro-weddings to huge parties, we’ve catered for all sizes of weddings over the years. The one thing they have in common? Every single wedding has been unforgettable. Prestwold Hall can host 140 people for ceremonies and dining, and up to 200 for the evening party, with minimum guest numbers ranging from between 40 to 75, depending on the day of the week
Flexible food choices
Your wedding food is such a crucial part of your day and we believe it should reflect your couple style and taste. At Prestwold Hall we don’t restrict your options; instead we offer a mix of creative, inspiring and delicious menus for you to choose from. If you have something particular in mind, our Head Chef, Marc Billings, will be more than happy to work with you to create a totally bespoke menu for your day. And, as well as formal dining, we can create a more relaxed menu of sharing feasts or alfresco menus to suit your big day vibe.
Our events team
Prestwold’s in-house events team have helped bring every kind of wedding imaginable to life. We love hearing a couple’s vision for their big day and enjoy working together to adapt our venue to fit with your ideas, rather than forcing you into a ‘one size fits all’ celebration. Ultimately, we want you to feel confident that, whatever style you have in mind, we can make it happen.
