Nostell Priory

The magnificent National Trust owned Nostell Priory is situated in the heart of the West Yorkshire countryside, not far from Wakefield.  Nostell Priory is a beautiful Country House which is currently under-going a £6million face-lift including an upgrade to the wedding facilities.  There are just a handful of dates left for Summer 2012, but we are offering some great packages for weddings so it is still possible to book this popular venue for your perfect wedding!

From December 2011 onwards, Dine offers exclusive use of the Riding School, Rose Garden and The Orangery at Nostell Priory for your wedding.  In addition, St Michael and Our Lady Church is situated on the Estate and offers an equally splendid location for your marriage.

After the ceremony, you and your guests can celebrate your wedding in the delightful Grade One listed Riding School. Designed by Robert Adam and recently refurbished, the Riding school offers stylish dining in complete privacy.  From the Riding School, you step straight out into the beautiful Rose Garden, which is exclusively for your own private use during your Reception; venture further and discover 350 acres of breathtaking parkland and delightful formal gardens that surround this 18th Century treasure.

NEW FOR Winter 2011 - THE ORANGERY

Nostell Priory & Dine are delighted to be offering a completely new space for wedding ceremonies and receptions as part of the renovation plans. "The Orangery" is situated adjacent to the Riding School itself with direct access into the Rose Garden and Riding School. For the first time, wedding parties will be able to take advantage of this stunning room, with beautiful views of the Rose Garden and with the added benefit of the orangery style windows offering a perfect setting for your wedding ceremony.  Enquire today to find out more and take advantage of the pre-opening offers.

      Fantastic Year 11 Prom
      Dear Danielle On behalf of the students, can I take this opportunity to thank you for helping to ensure to a fantastic Year 11 Prom. All of the students I have spoken to had an amazing experience, in no small part due to your hard work and support. Can I also pass on a huge thank you from myself for your support and professionalism throughout. In particular for putting up with my constant barrage of questions over the past few weeks! All of your staff that I have spoken to over the phone prior to, and on the night of the Prom have been fantastic. I would have no hesitation in booking another function with yourselves based on this great experience. Head of Year 11 – Campsmount Technology College

      The service was just amazing!
      Dear Craig, We didn’t really get chance to speak on Saturday but we just wanted to say how much we enjoyed the day at that was in large parts down to you and your tea. The service was just amazing and we had lots of lovely comments on the food and how efficiently everything was managed. Thanks for putting up with all our special requests and making sure they all happened. You also dealt with my Mum very well and it was much appreciated! Take care, Cheryl & Mark

      Surpassed our expectations!
      Hi Matt Just wanted to thank you for an excellent day yesterday. It surpassed all our expectations. Your team did an amazing job and the day went super smoothly and without any problems at all. I hope everyone behaved themselves and didn't cause too much trouble. If you would pass on our thanks to the team you had working with you yesterday we'd really appreciate it.

      Our day was a truly magical experience!
      Just wanted to say a really big thank on behalf of myself and James for helping make our day a truly magical experience. Your professional, friendly approach was always reassuring when faced with our needs, questions and concerns throughout the planning of our day and you always welcomed them and dealt with our queries promtly and efficiently. Throughout the day itself you made us feel relaxed and confident that everything would run smoothly under your control, and since the wedding we have had many comments to this effect from our friends and family also. Thanks you to DINE and especially you Matt for helping make our Wedding Day at Nostell Priory a day we will always remember as one of the happiest days of our lives. Good luck for the future!

      A beautiful Marquee Wedding
      Our daughter was married at Nostell Priory on Friday last, the reception being held in the marquee, with Dine as the caterers. I wish to put on record a great big thank you to your staff for making the occasion such a special one. They were extremely helpful, professional and nothing was too much trouble. The food was lovely and well presented. All our requirements for the layout of the marquee were adhered to and it looked stunning. So a great big thank you to all concerned. In addition, I would like to single out Craig Squelch for a special accolade. He was kind, committed, supportive and professional during the preparation days and, during the wedding day itself, was amazing - always there to lend a hand, but unobtrusively. Even our guests noticed and commented on his special knack of making us all feel welcome. He is a credit to your establishment and to himself. Thank you so much once again for making our daughter's day a day to remember. We will recommend your services to our friends.

      The best day ever!
      "Hi Craig, Arrived back from a wonderful honeymoon in the Maldives and trying to settle back into real life. I just wanted to send you a note to say a huge thank you to you and the Dine team for making our wedding day such a wonderful day. I really appreciated all the time you took to answer the questions I had in the lead up, making organising a lot easier! You were also such a calm influence, making the change of plan stress free following our timings issue!! Everyone has said they had an amazing time, they loved the venue, the food and the service and chris and I certainly had the best day ever! I will certainly reccommend Dine without hesitation in the future and would just like to say thank you again!"
