Whether you dream of saying “I do” beneath chandeliers, in gardens full of bloom, or by roaring log fires, our collection of venues gives you the freedom to find the backdrop that feels like yours.
Wherever you choose, you’ll find more than just a venue, you’ll discover a team who are devoted to the details that matter most to you. From the first visit to the final toast, we’re here to ensure your day unfolds exactly as you imagined, filled with joy, ease and those little moments that become memories.
At Classic Lodges, no two weddings are the same, but every one is unforgettable.
Your Day, Your Way
Imagine a wedding where every room, every detail, and every moment is yours alone.
At Classic Lodges, our exclusive-use venues let you take over the entire hotel for the day or the whole weekend so you can celebrate in complete privacy with the people who matter most.
Just you, your guests, and memories in the making.
However you imagine your wedding, we’ll help you bring it to life — your style, your story, your way.
The Perfect Setting, Whatever the Season
Spring blooms, summer skies, golden autumns, or magical winter wonderlands every season has its story, and Classic Lodges sets the scene beautifully.
Tie the knot under blossom-filled trees or say “I do” by candlelight as snow falls softly outside.
With seasonal menus, picture-perfect settings, and warm, personal service all year round, your day will feel just right, whatever the weather.
Garden and Outdoor Weddings
It’s often the little details that make a wedding day unforgettable, and at Classic Lodges, those details are what we do best. Across Yorkshire and Lancashire, several of our hotels offer something truly unique: beautiful outdoor wedding pavilions where you can take your vows beneath the open sky, surrounded by the people you love most. Each setting tells its own story, from lakeside romance to timeless lawns, giving you a picture-perfect start to married life.
The Folly by the Lake at Bagden Hall, West Yorkshire
Hidden within the beautiful grounds of Bagden Hall, you’ll find The Little Folly by the Lake, a charming Victorian folly and one of the most magical outdoor wedding venues in Yorkshire. Imagine exchanging vows at the water’s edge, with your guests gathered close by, before strolling hand in hand across the lawns to your reception in the elegant hall that awaits.
Farington Lodge, Lancashire
Tucked away in extensive grounds yet right in the heart of Leyland near Preston, Farington Lodge offers a romantic garden pavilion where you can make your promises surrounded by family and friends. After your ceremony, step back into the grandeur of the hotel to celebrate in one of its elegant reception rooms or suites.
The Old Swan, Harrogate
At The Old Swan, one of the most historic wedding venues in Harrogate, you’ll find a rare gem, a wedding pavilion set on a peaceful lawn, perfect for saying “I do” in the open air.
