The suite spot A handpicked selection of top hotels for your wedding day NUTFIELD PRIORY HOTEL & SPA 01737 824 400 | www.handpickedhotels.co.uk/nutfieldpriory Perched upon Nutfield Ridge, the venue boasts panoramic views of the Surrey countryside. The stylish interior of Nutfield Priory is adorned with fine paintings and many original features. With elegant décor, spacious bedrooms, a relaxing spa and endless amenities, this house is an oasis of tranquillity. It also has 15 feature bedrooms, and for that extra indulgence, The Bryon Suite located in the tower is spread over three floors and makes a wonderful choice for a honeymoon suite. Inspired by the Neo-Gothic splendour of the Palace of Westminster, this is a one-of-a-kind Victorian mansion, dating back to 1872 and full of character and charm. It also boasts a castle turret – the ideal accompaniment to a fairytale wedding. Each of the rooms inside Nutfield Priory are full of character. Originally the Morning Room, the Worth Room is ideal if you’re looking to hold your wedding ceremony surrounded only by your nearest and dearest (20 guests). Small enough to feel cosy, but with a high ceiling and original fireplace it has a special feel. The Gibson Room (80 ceremony, 60 wedding breakfast guests) with its warm and elegant feel is a popular choice for nuptials, and its ornate ceiling and wood panelling give it an undeniable sense of grandeur. You’ll have a fantastic view over the grounds too. Plus, gold chandeliers and original pier mirrors provide glamour and sparkle. The Fielden Suite (100 ceremony, 100 wedding breakfast, 140 evening guests) offers you a long aisle ending at the feature bay window. There’s plenty of natural light and the neutral décor is perfectly suited for any palette. With a private bar, cloakroom and outdoor terrace it’s ideal for larger weddings. The Leigh Room, the old housekeeper’s pantry is for small wedding breakfasts from eight to 20 of your closest friends and family. It’s at its best with everyone seated around a social oval table. Exclusive-use weddings can also utilise The Grand Hall (70 wedding breakfast, 200 evening guests), with rich wood panelling, stained-glass windows, carved marble fireplace and original antique organ. The venue offers a wedding coordinator, wedding handbook, an invitation to up to four wedding events annually (including two County Wedding Events fairs), a menu tasting with wines, a personal wedding manager to guide you through the day and a stay in a suite on the wedding night. www.3dhphotography.com www.andrewfranklin.co.uk 19 HOTEL VENUES
