Never, we only ever have one event per day, making Micklefield totally exclusive to you and your guests. Not many venues can offer this but as Micklefield is a private estate, we can ensure your wedding is totally private.

We have a handful of carefully selected, exclusive catering partners that have been specifically picked for their expertise, level of service and quality. Anyone hiring Micklefield Hall has to use one of the caterers on our approved lists. More details are in our brochures which can be downloaded on our website.

Once you have viewed Micklefield Hall and met with our in-house event managers, you are offered the opportunity to put an available date on hold without charge.  This is held for you for up to two weeks.  To totally secure a day for your special event, we require a non-refundable deposit of £2,000+VAT.

Yes, we have purpose-built pathways for our outside ceremony areas.  The Great Barn has disabled access and there are accessible toilets on site.  If you have any requirements or accessibility concerns, please contact our team in the office who can talk you through how disability friendly our venue is.

Confetti always makes for a beautiful photograph.  Sustainability is at the heart of the Micklefield estate and so we only allow confetti that is made of real petals or biodegradable and environmentally friendly materials.  We also do not allow the use of confetti canons on site.

To protect our wildlife and respect our neighbours, we do not allow the use of Chinese lanterns or fireworks on our estate.

Micklefield Hall has a custom built and private bridal room, tucked away, to allow you total privacy before your ceremony. With salon style chairs, huge mirrors, comfortable seating area, private kitchen, en suite bathroom and large dressing room, this space is perfect for you and your bridal party to get your hair and makeup done!

Our expert team of in-house event managers are always included for your day.  They are there to ensure your ceremony area is beautifully arranged, that The Great Barn is gorgeously dressed for your meal, that our venue is pristine for your arrival and to help coordinate all of your suppliers.  Your caterer will dress the tables for your meal and the other decorations are usually done by your florist or designer of your choice.  Your event manager for the day will have all the details of your wedding beforehand and will have a professional team of assistants to ensure that everything runs seamlessly and that our service goes above and beyond.

Our team in the office will send you a form that needs to be completed a few weeks before your wedding.  We also like to organise another face to face meeting with your event manager, around 7-10 days before your event.  This ensures we are aware of all your arrangements, timings and suppliers.  This allows us to provide a seamless and professional service on the day of your event and let you concentrate on enjoying your day.
