We know how important your wedding is to you. Here at Otley Hall we will provide you with a personal, friendly and professional service to make sure you have a lovely day to remember forever.
Otley Hall is a grade I listed historic house in Suffolk and has a long and distinguished history. It is situated in ten acres of gardens and is the perfect location for a dream wedding.
Wedding Ceremonies
We are licenced to hold civil ceremonies and have three rooms licenced for this purpose. The Great Hall with original 16th century features overlooks the rose and croquet lawns and can hold 60. The Gosnold Suite, adjacent to the main building also holds 60, and the Linenfold Parlour, lined with superb linenfold wood panelling is perfect for more intimate occassions and holds 25. We welcome civil marriages, civil partnerships, marriage blessings and naming ceremonies.
Wedding Breakfasts and Receptions
For the wedding breakfast, we are able to cater for a maximum of 40 guests in the Great Hall or up to 55 guests in the adjoining Gosnold Suite. For your evening reception the Gosnold Suite can hold 80.
For larger receptions we can discuss the hire of a Marquee which would be placed in the grounds. Your guests will have exclusive use of the gardens and grounds for the duration of the reception and full use of the facilities in the conference centre.
We pride ourselves on being completely flexible when it comes to your day and we do not have packages that we insist you work to. Each wedding is a bespoke occasion and we work with you to bring your ideas to life. You may use whatever supplier you wish for catering and entertainment etc, but we can provide you with recommendations and suggestions to aid you in the planning process.
