Grassfield Hall

Due to our least favourite C word, Covid, we didn’t think that it would be possible to tie the knot in 2020 as planned. However, that was all in the past when we found a gem of a place called Grassfield Hall in Pateley Bridge. It was perfect. Classy, intimate, and allowed us to celebrate with our nearest and dearest due to the limited numbers that we were allowed. Lisa and her team were fantastic, and managed to give us our wedding day that we will never forget!

Grassfield Hall is one of my favourite wedding venues. It’s perfect for intimate ceremonies. The team are so accommodating and professional, the views are out of this world and the opportunities for styling your wedding are endless. This place oozes style and grandeur with but is perhaps one of the most friendly and homely wedding venues you will ever find. A jewel in the Dales. It’s absolutely ideal for a bespoke, memorable and relaxed humanist ceremony – a perfect combo for a wedding of dreams!

After saying “Yes” to that important question, I put a plea out to friends for a recommendation for a small wedding venue. Grassfield Hall was suggested, and after our first visit we decided on the spot that it was the perfect choice for what we envisaged. A stunning Georgian restored building, the beautiful Nidderdale countryside, individual and unique rooms, elegance, opulence and most of all Lisa – the powerhouse who was willing to listen, open to ideas, and driven to make her clients dreams aspire into reality. The date was set for Nov 2020.

Fast forward to present day and a Pandemic later – Covid 19 certainly put a spanner in the works for couples not only nationally but blobally. After 3 cancelled dates we finally got our Wedding Day July 2021. During what could’ve been the most stressful time, Lisa worked alongside us to keep everything calm, and with her expertise and guidance all those involved remained co-ordinated in their approach to the final goal – we simply kept moving things forward.

The day itself could not have been more perfect. From start to finish our guests felt welcomed, relaxed and “treated”. We were complimented all day on the atmosphere with friends and family noting that, despite being surrounded with luxury, style and elegance they didn’t feel out of place and it genuinely felt homely. Each and every member of the team worked to give us our dream day and with Lisa’s recommended suppliers it was poetry in motion. We simply can’t praise Grassfield Hall enough. We started as clients and we feel we’ve made friends.
