BAMBURGH CASTLE 01668 214 208 | www.bamburghcastle.com Situated on the coast, Bamburgh Castle is a breathtaking location overlooking Northumberland. From its earliest beginnings, the venue has captured the hearts of the local community and now allows lovebirds to turn their dream fairytale wedding into a reality. With plenty of natural lighting, couples can exchange vows in The Cross Hall with 150 people. Or why not descent down the fairytale staircase into the 12th-century Keep Hall, which features vaulted ceilings, stone-flagged floors and a treasure trove of eclectic pieces? With its sweeping sea views of the coastline to one side and the splendour of the castle on the other, The Battery Terrace is an open-air space that allows couples to exchange vows surrounded by 60 loved ones. Drinks receptions occur in either The Battery Terrace, weather dependent, or inside The Victorian Stables. The castle itself doesn’t have the facilities to host wedding breakfasts inside, but loved ones can continue the celebrations in The Victorian Stable with 40 loved ones and hire external caterers to create their favourite dishes. Couples can hire a marquee for receptions on the famous village green with the castle illuminated above or on the historic Glebe field, which offers spectacular views. LE PETIT CHÂTEAU 01830 570 400 | www.le-petit-chateau.com Situated in Otterburn, Le Petit Château is a French country manor that features a shabby chic interior and elegant features. Couples can wander hand-in-hand to the serene riverside for photographs, complete with beautiful ruins and a wildflower meadow. Say “I do” surrounded by 160 loved ones in the La Belle Époque. This gorgeous chapel is the perfect mix of romance and fantasy with a crystal chandelier, marble fireplace and a shingle thatched roof. Alternatively, the outdoor terrace can host al fresco ceremonies due to its retractable roof, meaning outdoor nuptials can occur regardless of the British weather. With floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open straight onto the Mediterranean Garden, the sumptuous Ballroom provides the ideal space for wedding breakfasts with 160 guests and 220 for evening receptions. Imagine feasts served on banqueting-style tables dressed in elegant linen or opt for rustic farmhouse tables with Louis XIV chairs. When couples book the venue, they’ll receive a complimentary night’s stay in the bridal suite on their special day and a wedding taster session to try some dishes from the award-winning chefs. Four-legged friends are welcome to join in the celebrations, and there are selected rooms available for them to sleep in. www.alanlawphotography.co.uk www.leescullion.com www.leescullion.com https://fionasaxtonphotography.com 14
