Historic Wedding Venues in East Midlands - England

Norwood Park is a fantastic venue - a beautiful house and gardens with the most professional and helpful team, ready and willing to accommodate all requests. The venue is on the pricier side and accommodation does have to be coordinated through you as the couple, rather than guests booking rooms directly through the venue. However, our wedding day ran like a dream and we'd have no hesitation in recommending them.

This venue was amazing. Carmel and Séana couldn't have done more for us. They made us feel very relaxed, both before and on the day, and really took care of us. Hazel, who was in charge of us in the evening, was also lovely and helpful - the bar staff even fixed my glasses last minute so I could dance the night away! They were fantastic with food preferences and dietary requirements, very helpful with our table settings and making the venue look absolutely stunning, and nothing we could've asked for was any trouble. I've had so many comments in the last few days about the food being A+ 10/10, I would recommend to anyone looking for a great wedding team, in a beautiful old location, with brilliant food for a very affordable price.

Goosedale was our dream venue and it met those expectations. From the staff to the food to the general vibe of the place. It was perfect. All the little things really make a difference from the hidden gardens to explore to just the layout of the rooms we had for your reception and ceremony. We couldn't ask for a more perfect place. Everyone commented on how great it was. In the run up to our big day the team there were really helpful and any question or dietary requirement etc wasn't a issue and just made us feel confident the day would go smoothly and it really did. Thank you to everyone there.

From the moment we set eyes on this venue, we loved it! We're from London, but couldn't find anything near us that met our requirements - an industrial venue with historic features and accommodation. The team at The Pumping House (Lian especially!) were amazing to work with. They allowed us access to the venue to decorate, and provided accommodation for two nights. This made such a huge difference as we had so many family members traveling and staying over. The build up was seamless and on the day, we felt so reassured that everything was totally under control. We had the sharing menu and the team were brilliant at making sure our guests were fed and watered. We had so many comments saying how full they were and how wonderful the tapas food was. Thank you so much for everything you did - we are just over the moon! Photo credit: Danielle Veitch Photography

We had our special day at Thoresby on the 25/05/25 and I can safely say our day was better than we could ever have imagined! We had our ceremony in the secret garden and it was absolutely perfect, the sun was shining and it was the most stunning location, we loved this option when we looked round Thoresby as we’re very much outdoorsy people! The Riding Hall took our breath away when we came to view back in 2023 and every single time thereafter, just stunning. We had so many comments on how beautiful The Riding Hall and grounds are from our guests. The staff at Thoresby were so helpful in keeping us calm and taking all the stress away for us. Natasha was fantastic with making sure all our questions were answered! We not only chose Thoresby for our venue because it’s so stunning but also because we were allowed our dog to be there all day with us, and our horse! My horse walked with me part way down the aisle in the secret garden (I bet most venues wouldn’t offer this!) and our dog was there throughout the ceremony too. They were so flexible with this and we are so grateful as this really made our day. The price was also pretty much unbeatable anywhere else for us! For the amount of guests we wanted/decor/add ons, we really couldn’t get this anywhere else for what we paid! We also added on the option of garden games (this kept all the children, and adults entertained!). So, we would 100% recommend Thoresby for any future couples, fantastic communication from Natasha, staff were so helpful, super flexible, great value for money and we had the best day ever!!

Amazing dont think twice! Just book it ! Tim and his team are fantastic the venue is beautiful and so many fun add ons to your day like a ice cream cart and a a spritz wagon all through the venue. Easy to manage and plan and no hidden small prints! Just book it.

Held our wedding reception at Sessions house and the whole experience was absolutely amazing. Erica and her team made us feel welcome and special all the way through the process, from setting up right through the event itself. Sessions House itself is an absolutely amazing venue and we’re already thinking about having a 1 year anniversary party there

Thank you so much to Leueen, Alice and Craig for making our day so wonderful and special. From start to finish every detail was discussed in fine detail and they made our dreams come true. The food was amazing and so many of our guests said it was the best food they have had at a wedding. Thank you again for everything!

Buxton Crescent created the most perfect wedding venue for our October wedding. The building exterior itself is absolutely stunning and blew our guests away as soon as they arrived. Step inside to the assembly room where you get married and its equally breathtaking with its painted ceiling. You could not wish for a more beautiful setting to say your vows no matter what the time of year. We didnt have to worry about the time of year as there were so many beautiful spaces indoor we didnt need to rely on the great british weather for photographs. Nicole was our wedding coordinator and she was exceptional for start to finish. Her laid back approach takes away any stress and she was so thorough with everything making sure she fully understood our vision for the day. Chloe ran our day and was equally as proffesional, nothing was too much trouble and the day ran seamlessly. Can not reccomend The Crescent and Nicole highly enough for all aspects of our wedding.

Abbie literally saved my wedding! Our original venue cancelled 10 weeks before our wedding … I spoke to Abbie at the Beonna, she was really helpful & told us what options we had … The Beonna is a lovely venue - I’m pleased our original venue cancelled … Our wedding pictures look amazing!
