Sandon Hall Full Description
Sandon Hall is one of the most sought-after wedding venues in the Midlands. The country mansion’s magnificent interior and picturesque gardens make it the perfect location for a wedding, civil partnership ceremony or reception. Our choice of elegant rooms are ideal for indoor weddings, seating up to 120 people, free of any distractions or other parties. Our Temple Garden is a quiet and intimate setting for Outdoor Ceremonies with far reaching views of the Staffordshire Countryside. We have our very own church nestled within the estate. The Grade I listed, 13th Century All Saints Church is a picture-perfect English rural church, with a meandering driveway through 400 acres of parkland leading the wedding party to the hall to continue the celebration. The Hall itself is set amid 50 acres of formal gardens, designed by the esteemed landscape architect William Eames. Spring and summer weddings in particular see guests spill out onto the elegant terrace and sweeping lawns, where younger guests can run freely. We also have on-site accommodation with our renovated, light and spacious lodge nestled within the Estate, which will be available to book alongside your wedding. In addition to period charms, the house provides modern comforts and a relaxing experience for the wedding couple, their families or guests. The property is equipped with 4 double bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and private parking and garden.

It was perfect. Sandon Hall take a bow!

We cannot speak highly enough of our experience. The day flowed effortlessly - obviously after a lot of behind the scenes planning with our excellent wedding planning team! Having the entire Hall to ourselves was magical and we couldn’t have wished for more beautiful surroundings. We wanted an intimate day and that’s what we got. Finally we rocked up the morning after to pick up gifts, flowers etc and everything was ready for us. Honestly, it was perfect. Sandon Hall take a bow!

The Bride and Groom felt so special

Our daughter had her wedding at Sandon Hall in May. It was a wonderful day. The planning & communication leading up to the big day was always informative & fun too. The whole planning team were fabulous & on the day made us feel so comfortable from the moment of arrival whilst getting ready for all the guests to arrive so we could all just enjoy the day. The setting is beautiful and all of our guests had a truly wonderful day. The Bride and Groom felt so special and had a fantastic day.

The perfect day

Beautiful wedding venue with stunning grounds, but also feels warm and inviting at the same time. We instantly knew we wanted to get married at Sandon Hall when we visited. It also happened to fit our criteria of being within an hour’s drive, conveniently located within the country, as well as able to accommodate larger numbers of guests with a marquee in the grounds given ours was a fusion wedding. We loved that we were able to access the Hall all day, in addition to the fact that the marquee was right by the main Hall. More than all the logistical points though, every single person we encountered at Sandon Hall went above and beyond - we truly felt like everyone cared about accommodating us and making us feel special and looked after on our wedding day. Thank you so much!

A perfect backdrop to photograph a Summer wedding

We’ve photographed several weddings at the stunning Sandon Hall, the most recent being Anita & Mark’s fusion wedding. It was the perfect backdrop to photograph a Summer wedding with cricket on the lawns and the sunset absolutely delivered for golden hour portraits in beautiful light. The staff at Sandon are always fabulous & we had fun working with the ace team again! We highly recommend!

We knew Sandon was the one!

I cannot sing the praises of Team Sandon enough. From our initial walk around with Melissa, we knew Sandon was the one. Through my endless emails, regular meetings and even when I presented them with *the binder* for the wedding day, nothing was ever too much trouble. The team genuinely care and are invested in your day and make you feel like you’re the first and last people to ever get married there. On the day itself, the staff we regularly cited by guests as being utterly brilliant. Thank you
