Goosedale

Sensational backdrop to a perfect day with lights bringing a different ambience to the photo opportunities outside! Venue and staff amazing! Would highly recommend.

As a professional wedding photographer, I’ve had the privilege of working at countless venues, but my recent experience at Goosedale in Nottingham stands out as truly extraordinary. Goosedale is a venue that offers an impeccable combination of elegance, charm, and versatility. From the moment I arrived, the ambiance was magical. The decor throughout was sophisticated yet warm, with every detail clearly designed to enhance the beauty of a wedding day. Whether it was the tasteful floral arrangements, atmospheric lighting, or the stylish furniture, everything worked in harmony to create an enchanting setting for both the ceremony and reception. The lighting was a dream to work with. Natural light poured in during the day, highlighting the venue's refined interiors and creating a soft, romantic glow that made photographing the couple and their guests effortless. As the evening approached, the thoughtfully designed indoor and outdoor lighting created a dynamic and cozy atmosphere, perfect for capturing intimate moments and lively celebrations. The staff at Goosedale were nothing short of amazing. From the coordinators to the catering team, everyone was friendly, accommodating, and genuinely committed to making the day seamless for the couple and their guests. As a photographer, having a cooperative and organized team on-site makes an enormous difference, and the staff here went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. The venue also boasts versatile spaces, from picturesque outdoor areas perfect for stunning portrait shots to cozy indoor corners for candid moments. I found inspiration everywhere I turned. In my career, it’s rare to come across a venue that so perfectly blends aesthetics, functionality, and outstanding service. Goosedale is truly one of the nicest places I’ve ever had the pleasure of working at, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to couples looking for a wedding venue that goes above and beyond expectations. If you’re considering Goosedale for your big day, prepare for a truly unforgettable experience. It’s a photographer’s dream and, undoubtedly, a couple’s paradise.

Very beautiful and spacious hall lovely drive towards the entrance. Great members of staff. But not a fan of the £150 for washing catering equipment or the £75 fine for leaving the kitchen unmopped (not mopping). But all in all beautiful and very secluded. You will need a taxi because walking is very long. Thank you Goosedale for the place.
