Within the historic setting of Blake Hall, and its lovely gardens, we are proud to offer you the beautifully restored 17th century barns as the perfect venue for your wedding.
Blake Hall is only offered for exclusive use and is licensed for civil ceremonies, either inside the converted Hay Barn or outside under the canopy of the Old Saddlery. Reception drinks can be enjoyed either outside on the pretty lawn and terrace between the barns, or inside in the spacious Hay Barn. This leaves the Essex Barn for the wedding breakfast and evening entertainment.
The Old Coach House, and its impressive dressing room, is close by, sleeps six and is available for the night before your wedding. Staying here with your family or bridesmaids is a great way to start the wedding festivities. Blake Hall is also proud to offer Stable Cottage, a delightful one bedroom cottage for the newly weds to enjoy on the night of their wedding as well as the Tack Room, The Carpenter's Shop and the Horse Box for family and close friends.
The seclusion and privacy of the Hall's stunning gardens and formal lawns and ancient trees provide countless opportunities for wonderful photographs and our experienced co-ordinators will be there to ensure your special day is stress-free and unforgettable.

Blake Hall is not just a wedding venue. It is a home. It is my home and we are very honoured and so excited when every couple chooses Blake Hall as the venue for their wedding. It is a privilege to host weddings and one that we never ever take for granted. We look forward to showing you our beautiful barns, accommodation and gardens that we are all so proud of, but moreover we look forward to making you feel at home here too and helping you plan the wedding of your dreams.
