An Essex Wedding - November/December 2022 (Issue 107)

LEEZ PRIORY 01245 362555 | www.leez-priory.co.uk Leez Priory is a stunning Tudor manor house with features including castle-like battlements, leaded windows and an outer gate house with ornately carved solid oak doors. The historic Great Tower, accessed by a spiral staircase, is a fantastic feature and can be used for a more intimate ceremony, for photographs and also as the backdrop for your nuptials. Weddings at Leez Priory during the winter are especially magical, as the Tudor manor house transforms into an intimate retreat, with roaring log fires, cosy reception rooms, and traditional oak panelling. Begin your happily ever after by marrying at the Tower (70 guests), a particularly intimate space with many church-like features. There’s also the Great Hall (100 guests), a characterful room with vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and fireplace; the Coach House Barn (100 guests), a more rustic ceremony option with bare red brick; or there are even outside settings under the Carriageways if you choose not to wed in the winter. You’ll then enjoy a delicious wedding breakfast in either the Coach House (100 guests) or the Great Hall (74 guests), before holding your evening reception for up to 250 throughout the house. THAT AMAZING PLACE 01279 354455 | www.thatamazingplace.co.uk Nestled in the Essex countryside, this 15th century Grade II listed former monastery has been beautifully refurbished, with every detail lovingly restored to highlight the venue’s history with a contemporary twist. Exclusively yours, That Amazing Place’s elegant reception rooms and many comforts provide the perfect backdrop for your big day, without you having to set foot out in the open air – unless the snow starts to fall and you wish to take advantage of some more amazing photos! Say your vows in The Lakeview Lounge (60 guests), The Hall (100 guests), the Outdoor Gazebo (150 guests) or the Marquee Gazebo (150 Guests), then enjoy a wedding breakfast for up to 80 seated friends and family in The Hall – or up to 150 in the Marquee. You can then party the night away with a reception for up to 200 of your favourite people. https://scottmillerphotography.co.uk https://scottmillerphotography.co.uk 29 THEMED VENUES
