About
Setting

Sandon Hall sits within the Staffordshire countryside, just outside Stafford, forming part of a long-established family estate. The historic country house is defined by its grand interiors, formal gardens and a sense of quiet separation that comes from hosting only one wedding at a time. With no other events taking place, the house and grounds remain entirely focused on your celebration.

The setting offers variety and scale, from manicured gardens to historic architecture, giving couples flexibility across the day. Whether welcoming a small gathering or a larger celebration, the estate provides space, privacy and a strong sense of place, all within easy reach of the West Midlands.

Ceremony

Ceremonies at Sandon Hall can be held across a choice of indoor and outdoor settings, each with its own scale and character. Within the house, couples can select from a range of elegant rooms, allowing ceremonies to feel intimate or more expansive depending on guest numbers. The Conservatory seats up to 60 guests, the Library up to 80, and the Drawing Room up to 120.

For larger gatherings, the Temple Garden offers an outdoor option for up to 250 guests. Couples may also choose a church ceremony at All Saints Church, located on the Sandon Hall estate and available to hire separately. Just a short drive, or carriage ride, from the house, it provides a traditional setting that connects naturally with a reception back at the Hall.

Reception

Receptions at Sandon Hall are shaped around flexibility and exclusivity. Inside the house, elegant reception rooms seat up to 120 guests, creating a focused, uninterrupted experience. For summer weddings, marquee receptions can be arranged within the ornamental gardens, allowing celebrations to extend outdoors while retaining the structure of a formal setting.

With a choice of spaces and no competing events on site, the day unfolds at a calm, steady pace. From drinks to dining and evening celebrations, the Hall adapts easily to both intimate gatherings and larger occasions.

Accommodation

Sandon Hall estate offers two on-site accommodation options: The Agency and Reeves Cottages. Both offer private accommodation and luxurious comfort in the beautiful Staffordshire countryside.

The Agency, located close to the main house and sleeping up to eight guests, is the perfect accommodation for marrying couples celebrating their wedding at Sandon Hall, or for small groups seeking a country retreat. Reeves Cottages, sleeping up to four guests, is located nearer the edge of the estate and is a newly refurbished two-bedroom rural cottage that is ideal for more intimate weddings.

Food & Drink

Delicious feasting is always one of the best parts of the day. The venue’s catering partners can promise you the perfect dining experience with carefully curated menus, designed to bring people together.

Getting There

Sandon Hall is just outside Stafford and is straightforward to reach by car. The entrance to the estate sits opposite The Dog & Doublet pub. From there, guests pass through the bollards and follow the drive to the top, where the Hall comes into view. Please mind the sheep!

A massive thank you to you both for helping our day go sooo smooth and making sure we had everything we needed.

Nicci & Adam

What else can be said other than perfection. From day one, we have had fantastic communication, and our dream wedding was planned and executed to perfection. The team at Sandon Hall is second to none, and we would recommend getting married at Sandon Hall to anyone.

Tom & Amber

We were due to get married at Sandon Hall in April 2020, this unfortunately had to be postponed and now the whole thing has had to be scaled back due to the coronavirus but for anyone looking at this venue for their future wedding we would 100% recommend! We were so impressed with the venue, the setting and the events co-ordinators – who are so professional, knowledgeable and helpful!

Naomi & Oliver

Sandon Hall is such a beautiful venue, every single guest was stunned as soon as they arrived for our wedding. Kerry and Laura were both fantastic. We cannot thank them enough for everything they did before and on our wedding day for us. It may sound cliche, but it genuinely was the best day of our lives and a lot of that is thanks to them. The venue was perfect, the organisation was great and we and all of our guests absolutely loved it! We highly recommend.

Jo

We wanted to thank you all and the Sandon team for organising the wedding day and the kindness and support has been amazing! We had a lovely lovely wedding day and thoroughly enjoyed it. Yourself and Kerry were so attentive, genuine and supportive and catered to our every needs. You were both instrumental in making our wedding day perfect! Thank you so much.

Sandon Hall is such a beautiful venue, every single guest was stunned as soon as they arrived for our wedding. Kerry and Laura were both fantastic. We cannot thank them enough for everything they did before and on our wedding day for us. It may sound cliche, but it genuinely was the best day of our lives and a lot of that is thanks to them. The venue was perfect, the organisation was great and we and all of our guests absolutely loved it! We highly recommend.

Jo & Ed

Sandon is one of the most stunning and grand venues in Staffordshire, but the service offered by Laura and Kerry is so personal and friendly. They really go above and beyond and make wedding planning really easy. Any communication between ourselves and the team was really efficient and they dealt with enquiries quickly and effectively. The girls were really accommodating and friendly throughout and it was a pleasure to work with them! The venue itself is incredible – steeped in history with gorgeous grounds. We had a summer wedding which was fab, but would also suit colder weather. The venue looks amazing in pictures and would suit either a big wedding with lots of guests like ours, or a more intimate affair. All of our guests had the most incredible day, and a lot of that was due to the smooth running of the day, thanks to Laura and Kerry! They also work with incredible suppliers so can recommend them if you need advice. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better venue/team and we had the most wonderful day. Thank you ladies!!

Laura & Rob

Sandon Hall is such a beautiful and stunning venue! Laura was absolutely fantastic in making the day so perfect and special. She was so helpful and accommodating. She went above and beyond for us. We can not thank you enough for everything. The venue was perfect and the organisation was spot on. We highly recommend and we will definitely be visiting again!

Lakh & Harmi

Fabulous, excellent, outstanding, wonderful, accommodating and perfect! Our Daughter was married there on the 27th April and I’m still on cloud nine from the whole experience. It’s THE place to get married.

Tracey, Mother of the Bride

Very nice venue for a wedding – bar staff especially are first class really helped to make the day amazing in every way.

Rosie, Guest

Hi Kerry and Laura Where do we even start?! You’ve both been so incredible throughout this entire process and we are so grateful to have met you both. Our special day was absolutely perfect and we couldn’t have done it without you. There aren’t enough thank you’s in the world to give to you, but we hope you know how thankful we both are. We have had a few of the official photos back and would love to share them with you. So, again thank you, thank you, thank you for everything and you truly gave us an unforgettable day.
