Your East Midlands Wedding - June/July 2023 (Issue 56)

BARLOW WOODSEATS HALL 01142 890 720 | www.barlowwoodseatshall.com Barlow Woodseats Hall is the perfect location to create unforgettable country weddings, from intimate to extravagant events. The original Tudor barn, dating back to 1530, is one of Derbyshire’s best-kept original cruck barns. The team pride itself on offering a bespoke approach to special events; they’ll work with pairs to plan their perfect day just how they’d imagined it. The property can host smaller weddings of under 50 guests on Fridays and larger weddings of up to 100 on Saturdays. Manicured gardens to the venue’s rear allow for outside ceremonies with the beautiful Hall in the background. Unspoilt views with the addition of a peacock make this setting extra special. Alternatively, the Cruck Barn offers a rural location for the vows. The warm and rustic atmosphere and wide-reaching views immediately put guests at ease. With the on-site chefs, lovebirds can choose their own menu and drinks packages, whether they prefer formal or informal dining, with access to the best locally sourced produce. There’s ample outside space for guests to wander the stunning grounds of the Hall, with panoramic views across the valley to enjoy. The eight en suite bedrooms let the main wedding party or guests stay over, while additional accommodation is available with glamping tents during the summer months. Free tasting evenings and one-to-one bespoke planning is offered to those who book the venue. HAARLEM MILL 01629 820 253 | www.haarlemmill.co.uk Haarlem Mill is the perfect combination of industrial-style luxury and comfort. The building had been lovingly renovated to create a quirky urban venue for memorable weddings with a rural backdrop of rolling fields and grazing cows. Weddings will be unforgettable thanks to the close-knit events team who will ensure everything runs smoothly. They’ll guide pairs every step of the way, from the first viewings to planning meetings and wedding days. The former cotton mill was built by Sir Richard Arkwright in 1777 and is laid out over two floors. The Ceremony Room oozes historical charm and is a wonderfully intimate space for 60 to 128 guests with the same warm red brick seen throughout the mill, festoon lighting and lanterns down the aisle. After the vows, pairs can enjoy drinks and canapés on the private terrace (weather permitting) or in the upper bar. The Banquet Room can seat between 60 and 128 guests for wedding breakfasts, with gorgeous wooden trestle tables and vintage school chairs. With festoon lighting, cutlery, crockery, glassware, a microphone and a sound system included, pairs can take advantage of the ladder installation in the ceiling and ample space to add to their own style. The in-house catering team, Zest4Events, has a real passion for food. They’ve created a range of delicious seasonal menus to choose from. Whether lovebirds opt for comfort food or fine dining, it will be freshly prepared in the kitchen with love and ingredients sourced locally wherever possible. The room is also ideal for evening receptions, with plenty of seating and a large dancefloor. The team can accommodate up to 160 guests with many food and snack options to suit any style. Once nearlyweds book their wedding, they’ll be invited to attend a tasting evening to sample various dishes from the menus. There will be live music and entertainment on the night, making it the perfect opportunity to experience the magic of Haarlem before the big day. www.isobelmurphy.com https://monkeymole.co.uk 22
