Whether you envision a refined marquee celebration or a relaxed outdoor wedding with tepee tents and festoon lighting, this venue offers the perfect blank canvas for your dream day.

A Grand Setting for Your Perfect Wedding

From the moment you arrive down the magnificent tree-lined avenue, Pitsford Hall makes an unforgettable first impression. The sweeping lawns, mature trees, and stately façade create a breathtaking backdrop for both outdoor ceremonies and timeless wedding photography.

Couples can host up to 250 guests, making it ideal for both intimate and larger celebrations. The expansive front lawn is the main event space, perfect for a marquee or tepee setup under open skies, with ample space for dining, dancing, and evening entertainment.

For couples preferring an indoor option, the venue’s Sports Hall can be elegantly transformed with a full indoor marquee lining — offering space for up to 250 guests while retaining the grandeur and atmosphere of a luxury venue.

Ceremony Options and Exclusive Use

While Pitsford Hall isn’t licensed for civil ceremonies, it’s perfectly positioned near the medieval All Saints’ Church, just a short five-minute walk away — a lovely, traditional setting for couples wishing to combine a church service with an elegant countryside reception.

One of the biggest benefits of Pitsford Hall is exclusive weekend hire. From Friday to Sunday, the entire estate is yours — meaning there’s no rush to set up or pack away. You’ll have the freedom to personalise every aspect of your wedding, ensuring it truly reflects your style.

Unlike venues that restrict your choices, Pitsford Hall offers couples complete flexibility. You can choose your own caterers, bar service, and entertainment, giving you the freedom to create a bespoke celebration. The events team is on hand with a list of trusted local suppliers — including marquee companies, florists, and DJs — to help you bring your vision to life.

This makes Pitsford Hall especially appealing to creative couples who want something unique — whether that’s a festival-style wedding with fire pits and live bands, or an elegant dinner-dance with chandeliers and classical music.

The flexibility of the marquee setup allows for optimal sound layout, while the flat, open lawns make load-in easy and stress-free.
