Hagley Hall

The Setting

Set in 350 acres of landscaped parkland with panoramic views, this stately home is situated on the borders of Worcestershire and the West Midlands and is easily accessible via the M42, M5 and M6. Although surrounded by countryside, it is also 12 miles from the centre of Birmingham.

The Vibe

Let the poetry, romance and beauty of Hagley Hall surround you on your wedding day.

If you are looking for a venue that is yours for the day, then Hagley Hall offers exclusive use and the ability to tailor-make your special day.

At this unique wedding venue, with its magnificent state rooms and expansive parkland, you can design your wedding exactly as you wish. Their experienced team will help you create your unique day down to the last detail.

The exclusive use of the Georgian Palladian Mansion, together with its experienced staff and bespoke wedding service, ensures that civil ceremonies and receptions will undoubtedly make your special day one to remember. The versatility of the Hall means they can accommodate 120 guests for a seated wedding reception. However, if your numbers are larger, then they can help you design a marquee, tipi or new for 2024, an Orangery structure within their estate.

Civil Ceremonies

At Hagley Hall, they understand that the ceremonial room needs to be perfect for such a special occasion. They can offer a selection of rooms for you to get married in so that you will find a room that suits your style no matter what your desires for your ceremony are.

The Saloon, with its ornate plasterwork, offers the most beautiful and historic setting with quintessentially English views of the village church and cricket ground. The room is arranged with two rows of seats facing towards the ceremony table, leaving plenty of room for a generous central aisle. Two ornate chairs are placed at the table, waiting for you and your partner to use during the ceremony.

If your numbers are larger, then the Long Gallery, with its opulent chandeliers and enchanting views of the deer park, makes for a fairy-tale setting and, at 26 metres long, is perfect for showing off your wedding dress!

For smaller parties, the Library offers intimacy and romance and provides a wonderfully snug location for as few as two.

After the ceremony, enjoy champagne and canapés in the White Hall serenaded by a string quartet or even a solo pianist on the family’s baby grand piano. The Hall is flooded with sunlight, and its wonderful arched lobby and scagliola figures of the Gods, including Bacchus and Venus, offer a fantastic setting for photography.

If you want to get married there, they can offer this historic house for a civil ceremony and drinks reception for up to two or three hours. This gives you plenty of time for exchanging vows, drinks and canapes with your guests and plenty of photo opportunities.

Wedding Receptions

If you want to design your own menu to your exact tastes, then Hagley Hall is the perfect venue for your celebratory meal. Their catering team will prepare seasonal, bespoke menus or choose from a selection of the best caterers in the region. Whichever option you prefer, you are guaranteed to get the exquisite dining experience that you deserve for your wedding meal.

Choose from a traditional long, top table for as many as you desire, or go for something a little more contemporary and seat the wedding party in the middle of the room under the central chandelier at a round table seating up to 12.

The Long Gallery seats 120 people on round tables with a traditional long, top table providing lavishness in style and decor. The Saloon can seat 60 for smaller parties on round tables, while the Crimson Dining Room is ideal for intimate wedding receptions for up to 28.

Evening Entertainment

Their entertainment suite consists of a disco room with a dance floor and an adjacent lounge and bar area and can accommodate up to 150 guests for your evening celebrations.

They can also provide a dance marquee or tipi, complete with a dancefloor, fire pit, bench-style seating, and tables – a modern twist for your evening party.

What’s included

• Exclusive use of this unique venue for nine hours up to midnight

Marquee Weddings

If you have larger numbers, you can arrange for a marquee to be placed in the grounds with the Hall and parkland as a spectacular backdrop. They have two-level marquee sites that are supplied with power and water.

The East marquee site is ideally situated close to the Hall, and you can run a canopy from the Hall itself to provide your guests with a covered walkway. It can cater for numbers up to 500. The front lawn in front of the house can hold a function marquee for up to 1,000. Both sites are very close to the Hall, and you can benefit from using the house facilities. If you choose a marquee with clear sides, then the beautiful views of the parkland and hall could still be admired from within.

You can still experience the splendour of the Hall by inviting your guests to a champagne reception before they dine in the marquee.

Orangery Weddings

New for Summer 2024, they have collaborated with Fews to create a breathtaking and unique experience for your wedding day. The Orangery will be exclusive to Hagley Hall and be situated within their private estate for Summer 2024 / 2025 (with the potential to extend this in due course). The structure can hold up to 300 people and is flooded with natural light, allowing you and your guests 360 panoramic views of Hagley Hall, St Johns Church and Park.
