local Tie the knot in and around Nottinghamshire GOING NORWOOD PARK 01636 302 099 | www.norwoodpark.co.uk Norwood Park is a quintessential Georgian country home based in Southwell, Nottinghamshire. The property has a fantastic choice of ceremony and reception spaces for lovebirds looking to tie the knot. The team offer exclusive use of the country house and gardens to help create memorable events. They’ve even styled The Orangery as a private salon with ornate mirrors, two dressing tables as well as ample prep space for make-up bags, sparkly shoes, fragrant flowers and all brides’ necessities. Exchange vows in The Clock Tower, a timeless Palladian Hall painted entirely in white with oak flooring, large sash windows, a panelled ceiling, oversized arched mirrors and a sequence of gold chandeliers. Alternatively, The Drawing Room is a stunning example of a contemporary and classic interior design – perfect for up to 80 guests. Family oil paintings dating back more than 350 years sit easily alongside original mirrors and a historic fireplace. The Starkey Bandstand is the ideal location to share wedding vows outdoors, surrounded by 150 guests. The space has been designed especially for weddings and is versatile enough to host a live band for outdoor events too. For receptions, The Long Gallery is bathed in natural lighting throughout the day and is blessed with soft, warm light from the magnificent chandeliers when the skies darken. Alternatively, The Clock Tower leads to the fixed marquee, which includes a permanent bar, dancefloor and stage. Several French doors open out onto the private courtyard. Dance the night away underneath the twinkly fairylights on the dancefloor or rest on one of the comfortable blue sofas while enjoying cocktails from the bar, which stocks spirits, wines, beers and a selection of cocktails. The team has a deep-rooted passion for Norwood Park’s history and wants to continue the Starkey family legacy. They’re warm, accommodating and knowledgeable in the wonderful wedding industry. They’re honoured to win the national Best Historical Wedding Venue award in The Wedding Industry Awards (TWIA) 2023 - what an achievement for the staff! www.rachaelphillipsphotography.co.uk www.natashajames.co www.estherlouisetriffittphotography.com 15 LOCAL VENUES
