Hotel Accommodation

Being a hotel wedding venue, there are lots of options as to where you can get ready the morning of your wedding. Inside the main hotel are rooms full of character with wooden beams and cute windows. But there is even the option of hiring the little cottage for yourselves.

You are both able to get ready at the venue without the fear of bumping into each other before the ceremony.

Outdoor Ceremony

An outdoor wedding ceremony is a must at Prested Hall. The wooden structure at the entrance of the bridge is a beautiful spot to say your vows. You have the freedom to decorate it with flowers to make it even more pleasing for the photos.

Of course, the natural light ensures bright and crisp photos but your photographer has the added bonus of being able to move around to get many more angles and memories.

Marquee Reception

The large white marquee is a massive asset to Prested Hall. It is such a lovely space to have your wedding breakfast in the summer months with tonnes of natural light for the photography.

The marquee can be transformed into a disco for the evening or even a perfect Plan-b if your outdoor wedding ceremony gets scuppered by rain.

Get the party started

By hiring the full hotel, there are many different rooms available to you. If you'd like, you can move the party indoors for the first dance and evening celebrations. This couple had a room dedicated to food, while another was the creche for the children to run wild, all while dancing had it’s own space too.

Naturally, for the evening party flash photography is required to freeze the action and capture the moment.
