MICKLEFIELD HALL 01923 778 898 | www.micklefieldhall.com Located in 350-acres with an ancient 450-year-old oak tree, circular pond and a grand stone staircase, Micklefield Hall provides several Instagrammable spaces that are all maintained to a high standard to create luxurious and high-end weddings. The property has many beautiful outdoor spaces, including the cloistered walkways to nature’s very own aisle lined with herbaceous borders that lead up to a romantic temple. The temple was a romantic birthday gift from the previous owner to his wife and now provides a dreamy space for couples to tie the knot surrounded by 200 guests when the British weather allows it. Or lovebirds can exchange vows in the stunning Great Barn, which is lined with rows of chairs in front of the striking wall of flowers to create a stunning backdrop as brides or grooms walk down the aisle. The barn’s exterior is sleek with dark-wood cladding, grand glazed entrances, cherry trees and a newly restored patio area. For intimate weddings, The Garden Room located next to the French fountain can accommodate 80 guests. Drinks receptions can occur in a few locations, including the rolling lawns in front of the Georgian manor house, the newly restored terrace outside the potting shed or in the heated marquee with chandeliers and cream drapes. There are various reception spaces at the property. The Great Barn can comfortably fit up to 200 guests and features smart technology to illuminate the room. With a fully serviced bar, luxurious toiletries in the bathrooms and air-conditioning, lovebirds can relax knowing that friends and family will enjoy this space. Couples are offered a free tasting evening with the venue’s exclusive catering partners, usually hosted in the Great Barn to allow couples to experience a sneak peek into what their wedding day may look like. A free annual open day also takes place to introduce couples to the fantastic suppliers and showcase every area of Micklefield Hall.
