At Howsham Hall we believe your wedding day should be as unique as you are, so we won’t ask you to select a fixed package. Our snapshots are designed to guide you to a choice of menus, dates and services- but these are only a guide, you can choose whichever combination you require, at any point during your wedding planning.
Howsham Hall’s Wedding Suite is one of the largest in Europe. With its own bathroom, dressing room, bedroom and separate large lounge, it is a fantastic space to enjoy and prepare for the biggest day of your life. Relax and enjoy a glass of fizz with selected friends and family before heading downstairs for the ceremony.
You’ll descend the house stairs & enter the Great Hall out of sight from your guests before taking the walk along the aisle. Original windows flood the room with daylight & the tasteful décor lends itself to a wide range of colour schemes and styles
After the ceremony guests can enjoy drinks in the Staircase Hall and make use of the completely exclusive grounds of Howsham Hall – it’s a photographer’s paradise. Guests can enjoy drinks & canapes, freshen up in their suite or even have a game of snooker in the Billiard Room.
I would one thousand percent recommend the venue and all the help we had along the day was amazing.
Dine did an excellent job, what we liked about them a lot was that we knew it was all under control, but it wasn’t in your face.
I cannot express how amazing this venue is and how utterly perfect the Dine team are. From start to finish, everything is organised and executed to the utmost perfection. The most beautiful place, the most wonderful team, and the most incredible service. Thank you.
The whole day was absolutely perfect and that is down to you all and the smooth running of everything. The venue is absolutely stunning and all the guests were blown away by it. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thanks again for going the extra mile & accommodating all our requests, it was truly fabulous.
The Drawing Room combines traditional features with contemporary styling to create a wonderfully stylish backdrop for your wedding breakfast. With huge original windows overlooking the park, the room is flooded in natural daylight.
Unusually for such a historic property, Howsham has been kitted out with a modern bar space & separate dancefloor area, both with access onto the riverside terrace.
Winter weddings at Howsham Hall are a wonderful combination of crisp winter light through enormous windows, roaring log fires, mulled wine, fireworks and candlelight. Discover why winter weddings at Howsham are the perfect choice.
