November 2024Long before our engagement, I had always known that I wanted Hengrave Hall to be our wedding location. After viewing here first, our minds were set and we didn’t bother visiting any other venues. Myself and my now husband were married at Hengrave 01.11.2024 and it was the most magical day of our lives. The staff on the day were incredible, especially Izzy, who managed the day with military precision ensuring that absolutely everything was covered and accounted for. The ladies in the office were on hand for every single question myself and my husband had (and there was a large number of them), nothing was ever too much trouble. I honestly couldn’t have imagined our special day any other way, anywhere else and we feel so lucky to have been able to celebrate with our loved ones at such a beautiful venue. Izzy, Catriona, Jennie & Milsoms - we honestly cannot thank you enough for perfecting our “Happily Ever After”.

February 2025We had our December 2023 wedding at Hengrave Hall and it was everything we could have wanted. The venue itself was beautiful and decorated with some lovely festive Christmas decorations. The team were great from the moment we booked, answering all our questions and taking us round the venue numerous times. On the morning of the wedding the staff were a great calming presence, making sure we were always exactly where we needed to be and providing lots of help to our guests. The building itself is incredibly beautiful and will make your photos look like a fairy tale. Staying the night is well worth it and provides a lovely chance for everyone to reminisce the next morning. Our guests were blown away by the venue and grounds. We would highly recommend Hengrave Hall to anyone, especially if you’re looking for a Christmas wedding! (Photos by James Davidson) Holly & James X
