Hatfield House Hospitality offers two unique wedding venues for a truly memorable occasion:
- The magnificent Tudor Old Palace, built in 1485, was the childhood home of Elizabeth I and where she held her first Council of State. It is one of the foremost examples of mediaeval brickwork in the country, and with its original wood beams, your guests will be surrounded by history. The Old Palace can accommodate large weddings from 80 – 250 guests on long or round banqueting tables and space for a DJ and dancefloor. A large bar is attached to the room, meaning guests won't have to wander far for drinks and is the perfect space to add additional entertainment, such as
photo booths.
- The Riding School blends historic features with modern architecture to offer a contemporary alternative. Located in the Stable Yard, its origin was to accommodate the horses and family's motor cars. In 2010 the Riding School was transformed into what it is today. Its glass roof allows the room to be flooded with natural daylight, and the mezzanine level adds versatile characteristics to this venue. This is a fitting venue for smaller weddings of 40 – 110 guests. The Riding School can also be hired out in conjunction with the Old Palace.
