Your Yorkshire Wedding - November/December 2021 (Issue 51)

KINGS CROFT HOTEL 01977 600 550 | www.kingscrofthotel.com WHAT TO EXPECT The Kings Croft’s function rooms boast elegance. With two large function rooms to choose from and two smaller and more intimate rooms, the venue can cater for all. In keeping with the Grade II listed building, the function rooms are finished to the highest standard – and still pose some of the original features of when it was a home. The stunning grounds are set in eight acres of Yorkshire countryside with ample photo opportunities. The outdoor wedding ceremony pavilion is set at the peak, and gazes over the rolling Pennines – a perfect setting for your memorable day. TIME TO CELEBRATE The King’s Suite welcomes 200 people for the day reception (250 to 280, evening). There’s also the option to use a partitioning wall should you have smaller numbers to create more atmosphere. The Queen’s Suite hosts 90 people during the day (120 people night). Originally a pool house when it was a home, expect a fabulous ballroom style. For more intimate weddings, the Duke & Duchess smaller function rooms can cater for up to 14 guests. Furthermore, outdoor dining domes have proved very popular − perfect for bridal parties staying the night prior to their wedding who may want a lighter meal but something still really special. There’s also the outdoor gin and fizz horsebox bar as standard. WE LOVE The outdoor wedding pavilion is a 360-degree glass structure that seats up to 80 people inside with additional seating available outside. With heating and air-conditioning plus a full PA system it overlooks the Pennines and a stunning lake. CASTLE PARK 01302 831 388 | www.castle-park.co.uk WHAT TO EXPECT With a total of 16 function suites, Castle Park has something to suit every occasion. The 1,500-seat stand and full-size professional pitch are both spectacular features whether you’re a rugby fan or not. The £2.2million De Mulder Lloyd stand was built in 2009 and is home to two modern, glass-fronted suites, while the original Clubhouse has a more traditional vibe. All spaces have an airy feel and private balconies. Set among 22 acres of parkland, there are endless picture-perfect spots. The house and grounds are immaculately maintained and have seasonal floral displays. TIME TO CELEBRATE The Twickenham Suite (80 guests) is the most popular ceremony room because of its separate bridal entrance and location next to the main reception room. The Clubhouse Suite (200 guests) is a particular favourite for sports fans as the floor-to-ceiling windows look out over the first-team pitch. Arms Park Suite is most commonly chosen for post-vow celebrations due to its large size and versatility. The large dancefloor and bar make it ideal for parties. WE LOVE The on-site catering team can tailor a menu to whatever the couple want, whether that’s an impressive Indian feast or a hot Caribbean buffet. www.fyshcreativephotography.co.uk Paul James Photography www.natalija.co.uk Paul James Photography 16
