Your East Midlands Wedding - December 2021/January 2022 (Issue 47)

winter wonderland Tie the knot in these magical settings no matter the weather HODSOCK PRIORY 01909 591 204 | www.hodsockpriory.com Hodsock Priory was lovingly restored in 1829 and has been the home to the Buchanan family for nine generations. Down the sweeping driveway, couples will approach the impressive archway of Nottinghamshire’s last remaining Grade I listed Tudor Gatehouse. Beautiful gardens surround the property, and guests love using the terrace for drink receptions and taking photos by the lake, which is complete with a rowing boat. Guests will arrive in the oak Panelled Hall after entering the property, a stunning location for traditional, contemporary and informal ceremonies with 100 people. The warm and welcoming room is adorned with family portraits, elegant wallpaper, high windows with framed views and modern touches to accompany the original features. Or why not tie the knot in the Buchanan Hall, which features a neutral colour palette and bay window with views of the historic gatehouse? For those looking to exchange vows outside, the romantic Georgian gazebo is situated in the gardens and will look beautiful in photographs. There’s no better space for small and intimate weddings than the light and airy Ante Room or the traditional Library, which overlooks the gardens and lake. Hodsock Priory has been hosting spectacular parties for centuries, and the Pavilion is the perfect space for wedding breakfasts with 130 people and evening receptions with 240. We love... Having once entertained four English kings, including Henry VIII, the venue epitomises a country house-style with modern touches.
