A romantic wedding venue with Victorian character

Drinks Reception

The celebrations begin from the moment your guests arrive. Sip Champagne, sparkling prosecco, or signature drinks as friends and family gather in the timeless surroundings. Whether enjoying the sunshine on the terrace and lawn or relaxing in the elegant lounge, the atmosphere is effortlessly stylish, creating the perfect setting for guests to unwind, connect, and share in the excitement before you say "I do".

Surrounded by character and charming grounds, this relaxed yet sophisticated part of the day allows guests to settle into the occasion, catch up with loved ones, and soak up the anticipation of the ceremony ahead. With attentive service, beautifully presented drinks, and plenty of opportunities for those all-important photographs, it is a wonderful way to begin your wedding celebrations and create lasting memories from the very first moment.

The Wedding Ceremony

The moment you've been waiting for. As music fills the room and your guests look on, take those unforgettable steps down the aisle in our elegant Terrace Room. Framed by striking Victorian windows and bathed in natural light, the room provides a romantic and timeless setting in which to exchange your vows and begin your married life together.

From the anticipation of your entrance to the excitement of being announced as newlyweds, every moment is enhanced by the character and charm of this beautiful space. It is a setting designed to create memories that will be treasured for a lifetime.

Celebrate & Capture the Moment

With the vows exchanged and the celebrations officially underway, it's time to relax, raise a glass, and enjoy those first precious moments together as newlyweds. Gather with family and friends on the lawn and terrace as Champagne corks pop, glasses are raised, and congratulations flow. It is a wonderful opportunity for guests to mingle, share in your happiness, and soak up the atmosphere while you begin creating memories that will last a lifetime.

While your guests continue to enjoy drinks and conversation, your photographer can take advantage of the beautiful surroundings to create those all-important images that will tell the story of your wedding for years to come. Whether it's a quiet moment together, a confetti celebration, or a stunning sunset portrait, these are the photographs that will bring your memories back to life each time you open your wedding album.

As the afternoon unfolds, take a moment to pause, savour the occasion, and enjoy being surrounded by the people who matter most. After months of planning, this is your chance to celebrate, reflect, and capture the unforgettable moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours.

WEDDING BREAKFAST AND SPEECHES

Following your drinks reception and photographs, guests are invited into the beautifully dressed Terrace Room for your wedding breakfast. Seating up to 90 guests, the room offers a variety of table layouts and seating styles, allowing us to create a setting that perfectly complements your vision for the day. Whether you are planning a classic, elegant celebration or something more contemporary and relaxed, our experienced team will help design a layout that works for you and your guests.

This is often one of the most memorable parts of the day, as family and friends gather together to enjoy great food, wonderful company, and the excitement of the celebrations ahead. Beautifully decorated in your chosen colours and theme, the Terrace Room becomes uniquely yours, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere in which to celebrate.

As glasses are raised and stories are shared, everyone can enjoy the much-anticipated speeches from the comfort of their seats, ensuring those special moments can be seen and heard by all. The traditional cutting of the cake is another highlight of the occasion, providing a wonderful photo opportunity and a chance for guests to join in the celebrations as you begin your first moments together as a married couple.

When it comes to dining, flexibility is at the heart of what we do. From traditional three-course wedding breakfasts and elegant afternoon teas to relaxed garden barbecues and bespoke dining experiences, our talented chefs can create a menu to suit your tastes, style, and budget. Our Hotel Director and events team will be delighted to discuss your ideas, guide you through the options, and help create a menu that is uniquely yours.

Whatever your vision, our aim is simple: to create a wedding breakfast that reflects your personality, delights your guests, and becomes one of the highlights of your special day.

EVENING RECEPTION
As day turns to evening, the celebrations continue as additional friends and family arrive to join your reception. With exclusive use of the Terrace Room, together with access to the lounge, bar, terrace, and outdoor spaces, the Plough & Harrow offers ample room for up to 150 evening guests, allowing everyone to celebrate together in comfort and style.

The Terrace Room transforms effortlessly into the perfect party space, with plenty of room for your dance floor, live entertainment, DJ, band, or any special touches you wish to include. Beneath the glow of the room's magnificent chandeliers, gather your loved ones for an unforgettable evening of music, laughter, and celebration as you dance the night away surrounded by those who matter most.

For guests who prefer a quieter moment, the adjoining lounge, bar, terrace, and gardens provide welcoming spaces to relax with a drink, catch up with friends and family, and enjoy the atmosphere of the occasion. During warmer evenings, guests can spill out onto the terrace and lawns, creating a wonderful indoor-outdoor celebration that allows everyone to enjoy the surroundings long after the sun begins to set.

From evening buffets and barbecues to live music, entertainment, and bespoke finishing touches, we will work with you to create an evening celebration that reflects your personality and ensures your wedding day ends on the perfect note.
