To the happy couple,

Thank you for considering us as a potential venue for your wedding reception!

Your wedding is a very special day for everyone and planning your wedding is an exciting time for both of you. From the moment you make your first enquiry to the time you leave us, we will provide a professional service, meeting your every requirement, with calm, friendly and experienced efficiency.

Hanger Farm Arts Centre is a popular wedding reception venue, with its exposed wooden beams throughout and large windows in the gallery and foyer, it makes a stunning and unique location for your wedding reception. Our main function room has wooden floors and more exposed beams giving the room a warm and elegant feel.

Within Hanger Farm, we have a theatre space which acts as the main function room. It can hold a capacity of up to 140 guests for a sit-down meal, which afterwards can be transformed for an evening of dance and music of your choosing. The Gallery space is ideal for serving a hot or cold buffet and we also have the beautiful main foyer space with our fully licensed bar.

You will have the whole building solely for your event, enabling you to enjoy your special day with all your friends and family at your leisure.  In addition, we enable you to choose your own caterers, for a sit-down meal, a hot or cold buffet or an informal approach, such as a hog roast.

Initially, we suggest that you book an appointment with one of our events team who will show you around the venue, check availability for your chosen date and discuss any requirements you have for your wedding reception.
