Characterful and charming, boasting beautiful exposed red brick walls, high ceilings and original Georgian windows draped in emerald green velvet. Our uniquely designed central steel structure adds a modern industrial feel contradictory with the building’s age. Ivory Tower is a venue brimming with individuality and endless luxury; the perfect backdrop of sheer beauty for your ceremony. With your personal wedding planner, we can help guide you through creating the perfect itinerary for your day. The ceremony is a special moment between any couple. It’s the real reason we would all be together in this room, to celebrate you both as a couple and the life journey you are about to embark on together. Ivory Tower creates a backdrop to your ceremony to be one of sheer beauty, whilst not taking away from the moment and allowing it to be about you as a couple, simply enhancing the photo memories you can take away. The wedding breakfast is another opportunity to add your personal touches and individuality to your day, one we are happy to help you with. You can choose from our set menus, or liaise with our chef team who will welcome the challenge of creating the perfect menu, tastes and flavours for you. We always say to our couples, “people will always remember if they’ve had a good time”. They will remember how it made them feel and the funny stories they can take away from the day. The Evening reception is the perfect place to be bold with entertainment, and to give your family and friends that unforgettable experience. We are incredibly blessed to have a Wedding Event Manager who has years of experience in the wedding and events industry. With this incredible knowledge at your disposal, we can personally guide you to help choose the best entertainment for your wedding and budget.

We had our wedding at The Ivory Tower on Saturday. Steph and Olivia pulled out all the stops and their attention to detail made the night. Our friends and family (as well as us) absolutely loved the venue and night. They hold their venue to high standards so their recommendations for the culinary, singer, DJ and cake were all amazing. We just want to do it all again. B&G

3 years ago I'd like to say a big thanks to the whole team at Ivory Tower where we had our works Christmas party over the weekend. The event was very well organised, all the staff were wecloming, friendly and attentive, the venue was extremely well presented, the theme and the entertainment was novel and fun. We had a great time and would definitely recommend.

Couldn’t recommend this place highly enough.

I took my staff and their partners to Ivory Tower for our Christmas party on 29th November 2019. There were 18 of us in total and everyone had a fantastic time. It is an intimate and beautifully decorated venue. The event was very well organised with friendly staff. Jordan at the bar made sure we always had plenty of drinks and the entertainers did a great job of getting everyone up dancing. Couldn’t recommend this place highly enough.

Amazing staff, so kind and helpful

Couldn’t recommend the team at Ivory Tower enough! Our decor was gorgeous and just exactly what I had wanted! I met with Laura on a few occasions and everything was so simple and easy! Even though she was extremely busy she managed to reply and keep me up to date 🥰! Another big plus for me was my venue since supplied an aisle runner which I had originally booked through Ivory Tower! Laura was the one who informed me of this so I wasn’t paying for something I no longer needed! Thanks so much

Perfect

Ivory Tower Weddings & Events were extremely accommodating as we were able to arrange a zoom call with my daughter and her husband at a time to suit the time difference. As parents of the bride we were able to work with the team in person whilst planning the details over zoom. On the day, the team arrived promptly and the room was absolutely stunning - just as we all envisaged. In fact, I had to convince a few of the guests that the stunning flower displays were artificial, they are so realistic

Our moment for life

Honestly, where to actually start!? Stephanie and Olivia.. these two are absolutely amazing. From the moment we first visited the Ivory Tower we both knew that no other venue would be for us. The perfect place, the perfect people. Both Stephanie and Olivia couldn't do enough for us, they we so attentive to our vision and helped us truly bring it to life!! They relieved us of so much pressure and made our lives super easy during our planning journey and throughout the whole day. The Ivory Tower experience is made to be extremely personal, the team are so helpful and are open to make all of your ideas work and they dont stop until you come to the perfect conclusions. Stephanie and Olivia’s organisation skills are second to none, they put so much into your day and we couldn’t have asked for a nicer, kinder and more fun team to help us. The food was amazing, all of our guests couldn’t stop talking about the canapé’s and creative culinary options that we chose. From start to finish we couldn’t have dreamt of better. Looking back at our day we wouldn’t have it any other way, the whole venue is beautiful and super stylish and has such a warm feel about the place and they truly know how to throw a party. By the end of the process you come away with new friends in the Ivory Tower team. To everybody at the Ivory Tower, thank you so much. The perfect day in the perfect place. Lots of love, Rob and Amélie.

My Dream Wedding! ✨️

I had my dream wedding at Ivory Tower, the team were amazing at helping me build the wedding my husband and I dreamed of. We had our ceremony and party there! Food was amazing and the space was so seamlessly changed from ceremony to evening celebrations! 🥂 We also had the 1842 Gin there which was a real hit with our guests and we may have smuggled some back to Ireland! Honestly not only the management team but the front of house team couldn't have been nicer. I felt like a real princess the whole day. Nothing was too much to ask for! We even had all our photos done in the venue because it's absolutely stunning and we didn't want to waste any time walking around looking for places! The space is absolutely breath-taking and we got some incredible shots that I can't wait to frame! I can't recommend this venue enough! Not only is it family run and we should support our small businesses more... but it is just stunning and you won't regret it ❤️

Describe the best wedding that happened at Ivory Tower?

One of my personal favourite weddings was Rad and Amy! They were my first ever couple and because of this they will always hold a special place in my heat. On top of this they actually had their first date in our sister venue, and have recently welcomed their first child, so It's a lovely full circle story!

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

Don't plan your wedding for other people, plan it for you!

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

We had a really modern bride and groom who were covered in tattoos, so we had personalised temporary tattoos made with their faces on them, it was such a cool little touch, I think event the staff went home with them on!

What is Ivory Tower most unique feature?

Defiantly the brick work, the building still has the original brick work and its over 200 years old and I think when the light is shining on it it just gives the most amazing photos
