BLACKWELL GRANGE HOTEL 03301 027 238 | www.blackwellgrangehotel.com Nestled in wooded parkland on Darlington’s outskirts, Blackwell Grange Hotel is a stunning 17th-century mansion surrounded by beautiful countryside. Guests will arrive at the top of a sweeping driveway and their first impressions will be of the beautiful lawned gardens. The hotel is like no other venue and has benefited from an extensive refurbishment of public areas, giving the spaces a contemporary and sophisticated feel. Couples can choose to be married in one of three locations at the hotel; The Gazebo creates a fairytale backdrop for the “I dos” and is set in the lawned gardens, while The Bruhenny Suite is a light and airy room for 120 people. For more intimate weddings , The George Allan Suite can fit 70 loved ones and features traditional décor and amazing views of the grounds. Both suites can be transformed for receptions to keep the celebrations going. After dancing the night away, newlyweds can retire to a completely refurbished Bridal Suite. When lovebirds book this hotel for their wedding, they’ll receive a complimentary two-course wedding taster meal and three-month leisure membership. ROSE’S BOWER 07860 846 316 | www.facebook.com/rosesbower Set in 15 secluded acres, Rose’s Bower is a new wedding venue that provides the perfect backdrop to weddings. Guests will love exploring all the magical spaces, including the Courtyard Garden, open lawns and private woodland area. The newly restored barn is stunning, with vaulted-beamed ceilings and bi-fold doors that allows for breathtaking views over Northumberland. The property is perfect for couples looking for a charming setting with style and elegance. Lovebirds will have exclusive use of the venue over three or five days, which allows them to personalise the venue to reflect their theme and colour scheme. Celebrant-let ceremonies can occur in the barn, the Courtyard Garden or the woodland area, which will soon be licensed for civil ceremonies. Continue the celebrations with 120 people for wedding breakfasts in the barn or the marquee, which is ideal for festival-style events. Couples can hire food trucks, a hog roast or a pizza van to keep guests from going hungry in the evenings. Newlyweds can use the private woodland area for silent discos under the stars; what better way to end their day? Rose’s Bower comes with luxury accommodation for up to 22 guests in the three cottages and a quirky treehouse – the perfect locations to retreat to after dancing the night away. www.edwardashleyphotography.co.uk www.edwardashleyphotography.co.uk www.edwardashleyphotography.co.uk www.cameraa.co.uk www.gemmasummers.co.uk GLORIOUS GARDENS 19
