We had a wonderful time at the Hargate Hall venue open day earlier this month. Hargate looked beautiful with our twinkly lights on show, flowers adorning the staircase and our apartments bursting with ideas and decorations. Don’t worry if you couldn’t make it, we’ve summed up the top ten reasons why you should have your dream DIY wedding at Hargate Hall.

We can also offer private appointments and show rounds (subject to availability) for you to see our beautiful venue, contact us today to book your tour.

As part of our DIY ethos, we let you make the decisions. We don’t have any restrictions on the suppliers you use. We can help recommend some, but we believe the best DIY weddings are the ones you build. Because of this, we don’t force any packages or suppliers when you book your DIY wedding with us.

Within reason, if you want to party until 1am, 2am or even if your dancing feet last out until 3am – you can keep the party going. We don’t have carriages at midnight, we let you set the times for your wedding or event. (Please note; the marquee is only a dining room, no amplified music can be played in the marquee.  This is for the benefit of our neighbours).
