Your East Midlands Wedding - October/November 2020 (Issue 40)

Situated on a 3,000-acre park on the edge of a quintessentially English village, Osmaston Park is an private wedding venue in the heart of the Derbyshire countryside. The venue is surrounded by jaw dropping views over the lakes, woodland and parkland. The marquee has beautiful ivory silk lining, fairylights and chandeliers and can be tailored to weddings from 50 to 500 people. Couples love the flexibility to decorate the interior to match whatever style or theme they have in mind and the option to provide their own alcohol (no corkage) and choose from a range of caterers. Although the venue is not currently licensed for civil ceremonies, couples are able to have celebrant blessings outside with incredible views. If the weather is an issue, the venue can offer a wet-weather alternative inside. Receptions take place in the marquee complete with lining, lighting, hard flooring, carpet, tables, chairs, table cloths, dancefloor, luxury toilets, generator and bar. The lawns are used for the reception drinks, bouncy castles, fun and games.
