Hawksley Tower, in Arnold, Nottinghamshire, is a striking new and unique wedding venue where historic character meets relaxed, contemporary style. Centred around an impressive Victorian waterworks building and its landmark tower, the venue has been carefully transformed into a beautiful setting for modern weddings while retaining the architecture and details that make it so distinctive.
Couples have exclusive use of the estate for their wedding day, with everything they need in one place. Ceremonies can take place inside the light-filled Ceremony Room or outdoors beside the water, surrounded by landscaped gardens, lawns, an apple orchard and views across the grounds. Afterwards, guests can enjoy drinks around the estate before moving into the reception spaces for the wedding breakfast and evening celebrations.
Hawksley Tower is designed to give couples the freedom to make their wedding feel personal. There are no set wedding menus; couples can choose from flexible food options created with the venue's catering team, and Hawksley Tower's no-corkage approach even gives couples the option to provide their own daytime drinks. Two dedicated dressing rooms, the Tower Dressing Room and Ironworks Dressing Room, provide relaxed spaces to get ready on the morning of the wedding. At the same time, Waterworks House offers on-site accommodation for the wedding night.
Behind Hawksley Tower is the award-winning team behind Best Day Ever Wedding Venues. Their approach is friendly, experienced and hands-on, helping couples through the planning process while giving them the space to create a celebration that feels completely their own.
From the first preparations of the morning to the last song of the night, Hawksley Tower brings together beautiful surroundings, distinctive architecture and thoughtful service to create weddings that feel memorable, personal and effortlessly enjoyable.
