Facilities and Capacity

The West Mill is proud to be an ‘Exclusive Use’ Derbyshire Wedding Venue. This means that The West Mill is yours for the day from 11.00am on your wedding day right the way through to 12:30am. You and your guests will have exclusive use of our venue and grounds and we guarantee that the only people wandering around will be your nearest and dearest.

Split over four floors, The West Mill offers a dedicated space for each part of your day. You'll start your day in our dressing room, popping the bubbly and getting ready with your nearest and dearest. Your ceremony will take place in our iconic Cotton Quarter, up on the top floor. Post ceremony drinks will happen on the bottom floor, spilling out into our courtyard and riverside gardens. After your wedding breakfast on The Breakfast Floor, you'll party the night away in The Spinning Room. This means no waiting around for a change over of rooms, plus plenty of space for guests to get some quiet time away from the party if needed.

The West Mill is a no corkage charge wedding venue meaning you have the choice to bring your own daytime drinks free of charge. Whether it’s Pimms for your drinks reception, wine for your wedding breakfast or fizz for your toast. Our no corkage policy allows you to supply your daytime drinks, allowing a more personal touch to your wedding day. In the evening, after your wedding breakfast, our dedicated evening bar is opened for you on the first floor and our no corkage period ends. Any left over supplied drinks will be stored safely stored and can be collected the following day.

Our in-house catering team of experienced chefs, passionate catering managers & friendly bookings team will look after you from the moment you book with The West Mill Venue.
