Choose which part of your day to spend at Meynell Langley

Ceremony

Meynell Langley Hall has two rooms suitable for celebrant-led ceremonies: 

The Drawing Room can accommodate up to eighty people (fifty seated and thirty standing) and is furnished with period dining chairs for the ceremony. 

The Library is suited to smaller groups of around twelve people. 

A room is available for the bride’s arrival before the ceremony. From this room the bride and her attendants are then able to make their entrance to the Ceremony Room. Alternatively, couples may prefer to enter the ceremony room together.

Ceremonies are performed by a celebrant of your choice who needs to be booked separately. Please note Meynell Langley Hall is not a licensed premises for civil ceremonies. For legal marriages, couples will need to make arrangements at a registry office.

A member of the Meynell Langley Hall team will be on hand to welcome guests and to assist throughout. 

Outdoor ceremonies are possible at Meynell Langley Hall and can take place inside if the weather is inclement. 

After the ceremony, you may wish to serve drinks to your guests while you enjoy the house and gardens and take photographs. 

Marque Reception

The West Lawn, adjoining the house, makes a wonderful setting for a marquee. 

We offer hire of the lawn as a marquee site, with mains water provided. The marquee, its fittings and all other services (electricity generator, portable lavatories, outdoor lighting etc) need to be hired separately. Typically, hire of the lawn is for several days to allow for setting up, decorating and taking down of the marquee. 

Welcome drinks can be served in the house whilst enjoying the Regency rooms and open fires before moving to the marquee for the rest of the reception. 

The maximum total number of reception guests is 120. Musical entertainment must conclude by 11.30pm. 

Ceremony and Reception

See options 1 and 2. Please note that the number limit for a ceremony is lower than for the marquee reception.
