a wedding venue for all seasons

2

Where memories that last a lifetime begin Set in 6 acres of formal gardens surrounded by 29 acres of parkland and ideally located on the “gateway” to the Peak District, Ringwood Hall provides the ideal location for your wedding celebrations.

Venturing into the woodland a plethora of secret gardens is revealed, all lovingly restored to reflect their Victorian heritage.

Consider planning your wedding with a seasonal theme and certainly not aim to plan for the weather. January and February can provide more sunshine sometimes than we might expect in the summer months...and summer showers seem more likely than April showers these days! We offer a whole range of wedding facilities and concepts.

Design your own bespoke wedding celebrations with our guidance and assistance.

Take advantage of our seasonal packages which include, in all cases, table dressings and chair covers, and in some cases, extra special “added value” like fireworks, chocolate fountains, live music...to mention a few.

Plans that are “tailor made” for your bespoke wedding Our wedding packages are designed to be

as comprehensive as possible, but we also

understand that one size does not fit all and are

aware of the need to be able to create a wedding

celebration around your individual requirements.

Our wedding co-ordinators will be happy to

provide you with a whole range of options

available to you from which you can “cherry

pick” to create your own special wedding day*,

the way that you want it “tailored” to be.

*Not always applicable to Fridays & Saturdays, or in some

of our banqueting suites.

Whilst many couples choose to follow traditional celebration plans, the offer of registrars for later civil ceremonies and the advent of celebration ceremonies both allow for couples to create their own perfect day…their chosen way.

A vintage afternoon tea followed by a hog roast buffet or lavish barbeque?

Canapes followed by a stylish “black tie” dinner party with midnight munchies?

Browse through our extensive range of menus to “tempt the taste buds” and stimulate your imagination.

All individual plans can be adapted to complement the seasonality of the house and gardens, from the long sunshine days with drawn out balmy evenings to crisp cold dark skies and the very special ambience created by candlelight.

Something special... something differentTheme your day - Choosing a theme for your wedding, a reflection of your personalities, will add cohesion to the day and create perfect photo opportunities.

Add an extra ingredient - Keep the party flowing and the peckish happy and add an extra food component to your party; a cheese corner, sweetie & candy bar, ice cream bicycle, chocolate fountain, cookie bar and cup cake corner.

Dare to be different - Make it unforgettable by eyecatching and unusual table centres, homemade favours, white doves released in memory of family members no longer with us, ice sculptures or a firework finale to “wow” your guests.

Have fun - Get your guests involved - Hire a photobooth. Garden games are great fun. Hire a bouncy castle to amuse the children. Close hand magicians or caricaturists are great entertainers.

Set it all to music - Add even more atmosphere and create your own live music programme - jazz, acoustic guitar, harp, string or wind quartet, opera, rat pack, steel band or keyboard.

Your wedding day is your dream day...we want to help you make it happen.

Let your imagination have no boundaries, we welcome your ideas, and we have plenty to share with you too!
