Your North East Wedding - May/June 2022 (Issue 50)

LANGLEY CASTLE HOTEL 01434 688888 | www.langleycastle.co.uk Langley Castle is the ideal castle wedding venue for the perfect fairytale marriage. Why? Its medieval grandeur opens up limitless options, meaning you can let your imagination run wild when planning your dream Northumberland wedding. Built in 1350, during the reign of Edward III, the castle has retained its architectural integrity and is regarded as one of the few medieval fortified castle hotels in England. Over the past 600 years, the Castle has been owned, together with its estate, by Lords and Ladies whose names were frequently associated with the turbulent history of the Kingdom – including a few executions at the Tower of London! Ceremonies are held in either the Josephine Room (70 guests), the Stuart Suite (100 guests), the Woodland Wedding area (100 guests) or the Bandstand (60 guests), before a reception in either the Stuart Suite (120 guests) or the Pavilion Suite (30 guests). Langley’s 10-acre woodland estate, complete with water fountain and roaming peacocks, offers a host of photographic opportunities, while the estate is able to cater for any wedding requirements, from traditional affairs to tipi and Game of Thrones-themed ceremonies. There’s even a hugely popular Weddings for Two package to be had (more on page 10).
