Lanwades Hall: An enchanting, historic wedding venue in Suffolk
Suffolk Wedding Venue

A Glimpse into History
Lanwades Hall boasts a rich history, with connections to King Edward VII and the prestigious Newmarket racecourses. The grandeur is evident in The Hall’s beautifully preserved architecture. Whatever style you envision for your ceremony, this fabulous venue provides an awe-inspiring setting for your love story.
Exclusive and Intimate Setting
One of the standout features of Lanwades Hall is its commitment to exclusivity. Unlike many other venues, it offers couples private use of the estate for three days. This exclusivity allows for a truly immersive wedding experience, giving you time to relax and celebrate with your loved ones. Your wedding day may take centre stage, but some families may also make room for an additional ceremony – perhaps a vow renewal ceremony or a baby naming ceremony, all within this serene estate. This extended access ensures that each event is intimate, unhurried, and deeply personal.


Versatile Ceremony Spaces
Lanwades Hall boasts four stately rooms, each exuding its own unique character. The stunning venue can accommodate up to 80 seated guests during the day and 130 for your evening reception. For those dreaming of an outdoor ceremony, the expansive grounds provide a romantic and picturesque setting. The stunning Sunken Garden, terraces, meadows, and woods, all offer endless possibilities for both ceremonies and receptions. Every corner of the estate offers a picture-perfect backdrop, ensuring your wedding photos capture every magical moment.

Luxurious Accommodations for you and your guests at Lanwades Hall
Lanwades Hall takes pride in offering a comfortable and elegant stay for couples and their guests. The Wedding Suite provides a spacious dressing room perfect for wedding preparations. The estate also offers 12 beautifully appointed guest bedrooms. These allow close family and friends to stay on-site and fully immerse themselves in the celebrations. The wedding team may also arrange a relaxed gathering in the attic the night before your big day. This intimate get-together gives guests a chance to mingle and enjoy the warm and welcoming ambiance that Lanwades Hall is renowned for.
Family-Friendly Features
Ensuring that every guest feels welcome, Lanwades Hall also includes a private children’s playpark on the grounds. This thoughtful addition allows little ones to enjoy themselves while parents relax and soak in the celebrations. It creates a more ‘stress-free’ experience for families.
Culinary Excellence
Your wedding feast is a key part of your celebration, and Lanwades Hall ensures an exceptional dining experience through its partnership with three carefully selected caterers providing exquisite menus tailored to your tastes, dietary needs, and overall wedding theme.
