The most perfect wedding day

We had our wedding day at Beamish Hall at the weekend. Everything was amazing. The food was delicious, the staff were so friendly and helpful. The planning process was made easy with professionalism, communication and flexibility. The accommodation was perfect and The Stables is ideal for meals and drinks and a very cosy atmosphere. Wish we could do it all over again. The staff would bend over backwards to ensure the day went as planned. Thank you so much.

Best Wedding Possible

We had our wedding here recently and it was perfect! The staff dealt with our never-ending questions with professionalism and all of our guests kept telling us how impressed they were with the venue and staff. Value for money wise there was no other venue on our shortlist that could compete.

A dream venue

We absolutely loved every minute of our wedding and all of our guests couldn’t believe how spectacular the venue was. It looked so stunning. The service was just amazing, the staff were so friendly and accommodating and during the planning stages, the staff at Beamish were very helpful and responsive. I would 100 percent recommend this venue to anyone who is getting married!

A perfect day

We booked a twilight wedding package with Beamish Hall and used Beamish Extras for decor in the venue. Everything was perfect from start to finish. We booked a meal in the Stables restaurant the evening before which was fabulous. The venue is beautiful, the food is amazing and the staff are so attentive and want to ensure that you have everything that you need. We couldn’t have wished for a better day.

Amazing, wonderful, excellent

What an amazing day! Everything ran so smoothly, the staff were so helpful in ensuring that everything ran on time and that everyone was comfortable. Even asking if more of our guests could fill in our guestbook so we had plenty of messages from our friends and family! It went without any hitch and the food and drink was delicious! The only negative was the day went by too fast! Couldn’t recommend more! Amazing venue, lovely staff, what more do you need for a good wedding?!

Dream Wedding Venue

Where do we begin. From the first time we drove into the venue for the open day the grounds just looked stunning. The staff were so helpful and were ready and willing to support whenever we needed them. The events team could not be more helpful. They always responded quickly to our many emails and couldn’t have helped more with our unfortunate last-minute changes. Beamish extras made the venue even more stunning and we’re always on hand to tell us what they thought would go with our theme. We will never forget the moment when we entered the winter Gardens on our wedding day and saw all of the teams hard work come to life. A huge thank you has to go to Emily who looked after us on the day and beforehand and made us feel supported, looked after and went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. The grounds on our day looked particularly special and thanks has to go out to the groundsman who were tirelessly looking after the spectacular surroundings even the day after the wedding they were making sure it still looked perfect. If you’re looking for a wedding venue in the Northeast, then you need to go and look at this venue. Not only is it the most incredible venue to look at both inside and outside I know that the staff will support you every step of the way of your wedding journey and we couldn’t thank them enough for everything they’ve done for us.

Wedding of our dreams!

Myself and my (now) husband Jonathan got married at Beamish Hall on 6th July 2024. We booked our wedding roughly 2 years in advance, and from the date of booking all the way through to the date of our wedding Beamish were absolutely amazing. The staff have been so helpful with any queries we had along the way and always replied to emails promptly, no question or problem was too big or small they were always happy to help. Our wedding day - we simply cannot put in to words how perfect it was! The venue is stunning, food and drink delicious and great value, and the staff all so helpful and ensured the day ran smoothly. Ashleigh in particular was so welcoming on our arrival and made us feel like we were the only couple in the world getting married, she went the extra mile to make us feel special and looked after and helped me calm my nerves just before I walked down the aisle. Paul and Adam were incredibly helpful throughout the day and tailored everything to exactly how we wanted it, they kept the vibes and good atmosphere going and made sure me and Jonathan were well looked after. We really cannot thank you all enough and would recommend Beamish weddings to anyone.

Amazing wedding

We would just like to thank everyone at Beamish Hall wedding team for their work and effort on our special day. They all went above and beyond to make sure we had a perfect day. The food was amazing and my family as vegans were really well provided for, we could not have asked for a better day!

FAQs

Describe the best wedding that happened at Beamish Hall?

No two weddings are ever the same, which is incredibly exciting and why we absolutely love what we do! It would be impossible to choose just one individual wedding to label as ‘the best’ as they have all been wonderfully brilliant in their own way! What’s most important to us as a venue, is that each wedding is the BEST version of what each couple envisages it to be, with a little added Beamish Hall sparkle of course! Personally, for me, I think the best bits are created by the simple things; that first look, the butterflies and nerves, a room bursting with love and laughter! It’s those priceless moments that create precious memories to cherish forever❤

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

Try to enjoy the process and take time to catch your breath and assess what’s most important to you. Wedding planning is honestly one of the most crazy, stressful and emotional experiences you’ll ever have!! There will be moments you’ll absolutely love, and others will drive you to despair – you won’t believe us right now, but we promise you’ll actually miss it once it’s over. Our friendly team are here to help! No question is too silly, no request too random, and we’ll be on hand to celebrate and cry with you along the way. Pour yourself a glass of wine, run a nice hot bath with the salts and Yankee candle we’ll give you during booking (it was a strategic move 🤣) and RELAX… we’ve got this!

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

We have witnessed so many unique and personal touches –and all completely different. We’ve had furry family members visit the hotel during drinks receptions ranging from an albino hamster, adorable puppies, Lucy the Llama, even a horse!! We’ve welcomed arrivals via helicopter, motorbike, Lamborghini, or a Jurassic Park jeep! Everything from grand gestures, to bespoke sentimental touches such as a memory table or seat dedicated to a loved one no longer with us. We love to hear your ideas and to experiment with new things. Anything really is possible, and we’ll work closely with you to bring your vision to life.

Describe Beamish Hall in 5 adjectives

Romantic, Elegant, Fun, Breath-taking, Enchanted.

Where’s the best photo spot at Beamish Hall?

There are so many beautiful backdrops within our grounds and in our lovely function rooms, but one of our personal favourites has to be our beautiful outdoor woodland swing. It’s extremely popular with our couples, guests and the little ones, and makes for some really fun and hilariously memorable snaps!

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

On a wedding day we believe everyone should be made to feel like a celebrity so that makes it incredibly difficult to differentiate between the two. But to answer your question, yes! We have been extremely fortunate to have had many a famous face at Beamish Hall, both holding and attending weddings. Of course that’s sensitive information so we aren’t about to name drop - sorry!

What’s your favourite canapé?

For us, it’s got to be either the baked red pepper and parmesan tartlet or the chocolate dipped strawberries – yum!! These go down a treat and make the perfect accompaniment to your drinks reception.

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

Ooh, another tough question. While at work, I love it if someone orders a Great British grazing station as chef always makes a little extra for the team and they’re delicious! My ability at home is a little less extravagant and so I’d probably go for something like cheesy Doritos and sour cream dip. Mmm all this talk of food is making me hungry!

What is Beamish Hall most unique feature?

I mean, just look at the pictures – we’re a pretty impressive building and have the perfect balance between historic grandeur and modern elegance! But we’ve always thought the history of how Beamish Hall came to be makes us incredibly special! I mean, how many other wedding venues can say they were built as a wedding gift in the 13th century for two Norman families as a thank you for helping William the Conqueror!

What part of your business are you most proud of?

Our team! We are incredibly lucky and proud to have such a dedicated, loyal and committed team, who each day go above and beyond in all they set out to do. What you are guaranteed when hosting a wedding at Beamish Hall is that each and every single member of the team encountered or unseen, from your wedding coordinator, our events team, the executive chef and his brigade or the housekeeper that fluffs your pillows in the honeymoon suite – will put 110% into everything they do and go out of their way to make you smile and ensure the most amazing, memorable and perfect BEST day of your lives!
