The Newland Hall Country Estate is situated 4 miles west of Chelmsford, Essex. It consists of a large picturesque 15th century Tudor Manor House with a moat, beautiful gardens and over 100 acres of grass and woodland with four lakes surrounded by unspoilt countryside. Recently fully refurbished Newland Hall is a premier wedding venue catering for exclusive wedding ceremonies and receptions. Take your marriage vows in our beautiful Henry VIII Room, with its original hand carved Tudor beams, superb decoration and delightful views overlooking the beautiful gardens. Or, if you prefer, in our custom built Gazebo – the nearest you can get to getting married outside! After the ceremony you may wish to enjoy reception drinks and canapés on the lawn whilst listening to a string quartet before receiving your guests into the marquee.

For private functions from Weddings & Receptions to Birthday Parties Woodlands Castle is exclusively yours for the duration. We have no set packages, so whether you want tea and cakes on the lawn or a live band in the Orchard Suite, the house and grounds are available for you and your guests to use however you wish. It's your day so we want to create an event that is as individual as you are. We have a great catering team that pride themselves on providing excellent, reasonably priced, locally sourced, food to suit your tastes. With over thirty set menu's to choose from there is something to suit everyone, or create your own menu and we'll price it for you. So you can have a stress free function we have compiled a list of recommend suppliers for you. If it's limo hire, fireworks or a bouncy castle you want, we know they provide the level of service you would expect.

I can't stand this bit so I'm going to tell you straight. I'm a photographer...a proper one. I can make you feel at ease so really you don't feel like you are being photographed at all. Every one says "I'm passionate about photography" or "your day means so much to me" well I'm really like it and I work bloody hard to get you great images. I know I'm ranting but if I don't i sound the same as all the others. Of the the last 100 couples I saw about there weddings 94 of them booked me so please let me be one of the "photographers" you see.

After your wedding day is over...... after all that planning ........ it is the wedding photographs that will be the everlasting reminder of your special day. Most of the things you spend money on (venue, flowers, favours, table decorations etc)only last for the day - but your photographs will stay with you forever.
