Description

Situated in the quaint village of Banham, one of Norfolk’s best-kept secrets Applewood Hall offers an undeniably unique wedding venue for your special day. Once the grounds of Grove Farm orchard, Applewood Hall served as the apple store during harvest season. Now an elegantly decorated entertaining space, it offers a licensed bar, dance floor, stage and seating for up to 200 guests. Applewood Hall is a harmonious combination of rustic charm and contemporary style. Accommodation is available onsite with 6 cosy Glamping Pods and 5 luxury en-suite Shepherd's Cabins providing the perfect retreat after a long night on the dancefloor. Spacious camping pitches with electric hook-up are also offered allowing you and your guests to retire to your very own patch of the countryside. And if that wasn’t enough, Applewood Hall is located next to Banham Zoological Gardens, Norfolk's award-winning family attraction, so if you fancy something a little bit different whether it’s a giraffe feeding experience, a ceremony within the zoo grounds or photos with some of the stunning animals – anything is possible!

The best day of our entire lives

Absolutely amazing venue. From the date we booked right up until the day of the wedding all of the team were phenomenal. Chloe, Beth and the others were great. Me and Matt had the best day of our entire lives and I’m so glad it was at Applewood Hall. Thank you all for being so welcoming, supportive and just on top of everything and making sure our day went as perfect as it did.

Fantastic through the whole process

The team at Applewood Hall were fantastic through the whole process, took the extra time to make sure we had all the small details planned. From our first viewing up until the day after our wedding Chloe was reassuring and happy to help. The venue was beautiful, the meal and staff were fantastic. We would not recommend any other venue if you're looking for the opportunity to make it your own and have the reassurance and guidance of a fantastic wedding coordinator!

Our whole day was planned to perfection

When we visited this venue for the first time we were blown away by how gorgeous the garden was and how lovely the venue is with it's starry ceiling. Chloe showed us around, she was so friendly and excited by our ideas that we really felt we could trust her to plan our day. Our whole day was planned to perfection and the food was incredible. We were able to decorate the venue exactly how we wanted and were really happy with how it turned out. Thank you so so much Applewood team!

Perfect location with a lovely garden

Applewood Hall was the only venue we viewed and we knew it was "the one" immediately. Perfect location with a lovely garden area. Food was fantastic. Chloe and the team were available throughout the day and if there were any issues we were certainly not aware of them. Caitlin's video compilation was a lovely surprise and captured our day to a tea. We had lots of questions prior to our day which were answered professionally and quickly. We had the perfect day and so did our guests!

10/10 and more!

Applewood Hall was the only venue we looked at in person and we immediately knew it was the one for us. The outside garden is beautiful and inside was just perfect, we were blown away! Beth was really helpful and friendly, she made everything so easy and put my mind at ease, any questions I had she was very attentive and answered them. We also rented out the Glamping Pods and Cabins, so clean and comfortable. 10/10 and more! Keep up the fantastic work guys!

The most wonderful day at Applewood Hall

We had the most wonderful day at Applewood Hall for our wedding. As soon as my husband and I saw the venue we knew we didnt need to look any further. With the pretty ceremony room, spacious hall and full bar with a big dance floor it was just what we were looking for. Having the enclosed garden too was reassuring with having small children at our day. Chloe and the team made it all so easy, we had it all as we wanted. The added bonus of staying in the accommodation made it so stress free!

We would re-live our day over and over if we could

We had the most perfect wedding day at Applewood Hall. Chloe, our coordinator was an absolute star & made sure the whole day ran perfectly. The venue is beautiful, food is 5*, and the dj/music was just what we wanted. We would re-live our day over and over if we could. If you’re considering Applewood Hall then definitely go and take a look!

A beautiful venue with everything in one place

The team at Applewood Hall made mine and my now-wife's day amazing, from Dawn's catering to Chloe's organising it was fantastic. A lot of the weight of planning was taken off our shoulders and they went the extra mile to ensure we had a great day. If you're getting married and want a beautiful venue with everything in one place, Applewood Hall is the best place to go.

FAQs

Describe the best wedding that happened at Applewood Hall?

We honestly couldn't pick! We have had so many great weddings here.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

It's YOUR day, so don't be afraid to be a bit selfish when it comes to things like your menu choices, drink selection and seating plans. Prefer to have canapés during your drinks reception rather than a starter, why not! If you want a big, gooey chocolate dessert, go for it! If you'd prefer to have a classic G&T rather than bubbles for the toast, do it! If you want the seating to be more informal with no seating plan, be bold! These small things will help your day feel special and unique to you.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

We had a lovely couple this year that had the brilliant idea of a personalised festival band to tie the napkin on each place setting, which they encouraged everyone to wear on their wrist once they'd sat down. It made everyone feel apart of their day and really worked with their outdoorsy, festival-chic vibe.

Describe Applewood Hall in 5 adjectives

Contemporary, rustic charm, friendly, flexible, glamping!

Where’s the best photo spot at Applewood Hall?

Our new wedding garden! This beautifully landscaped space features a custom-built gazebo, contemporary outdoor furniture, lots of lush greenery and cottage garden flowers, grasses and herbs inspired by the British countryside. The perfect backdrop for wedding photos and alfresco arrival drinks in the sunshine!

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at Applewood Hall?

No, but we were a featured venue on 'Don't tell the Bride!'

What is Applewood Hall most unique feature?

Applewood Hall is located right next to Banham Zoo, so if you fancied something a little bit different whether it’s a giraffe feeding experience, a ceremony within the zoo grounds or photos with some of the stunning animals – anything is possible!

What part of your business are you most proud of?

We love being a blank canvas venue so our couples can personalise the hall to whatever theme or colour scheme they want to incorporate into their special day
