Set beneath mature oaks and surrounded by evergreen rhododendron shrubs, this is a peaceful space and the perfect woodland dell for a magical wedding ceremony. Hire includes oak bench seating and an archway. Alternatively, a delightful space for your vows, the quaint and tranquil Little Theatre offers a seated space for up to 65 loved ones with a small raised stage area for you to exchange your vows. The stunning gardens of Skipwith Hall are also available with this option at a small extra charge, where you can hold a drinks reception or capture your wedding photography. It offers the most beautiful backdrop and somewhere for your guests to take a stroll, so it’s a highly recommended addition. With acres of pasture land at Escrick Park, there’s plenty of space for your post-“I do” celebrations whatever the time of year. There’s also room for guest camping where friends and family can stay in their own tents on site. The land works beautifully with the Little Theatre for your civil ceremony (four miles away) or the woodland area, which is only a short walk from here. Plus, the team will recommend to you all the suppliers could you need to make your day perfect from marquee hire to taxi services. Set in the beautiful grounds of Escrick Park’s Queen Anne House, a glorious garden venue is available for your marquee too. Drinks reception options are also available in the Italian Garden or the Kitchen Garden where your guests can wander down cockleshell paths and admire the abundance of blooms and features before they head into the marquee. This venue is open March to September. The venue’s packages offer land hire only and allow for four-day hire enabling you to set up and break down. The team do recommend suppliers they love working with, but if you have your own for marquee and catering, they’re happy for you to use them subject to details and hygiene certificates. www.dominiclemoinephotography.co.uk THE GRAND YORK 01904 380038 | www.thegrandyork.co.uk The Grand, York, is an iconic destination combining timeless elegance and contemporary luxury.
