Getting married at Hall Place & Gardens in Bexley Kent certainly is a regal affair, as soon as you walk in it offers that wow factor, it is very grand and has amazing architecture as you would expect from a Grade I listed Tudor house.

It was originally build for the Lord Mayor of London in the reign of Henry VII and has beautiful landscaped gardens surrounding the house.

It is licensed for civil ceremonies, the ceremony will take place in either the Great Hall or the Great Chamber, having seen both rooms they are equally as beautiful as each other, the great hall has traditional wood panels on the walls with thick dark wooden beams on the ceiling and beautiful gold chandeliers hanging down which complements the whole grandeur feel of the room, the Great Chamber has a magnificent carved ceiling and has neutral colours so you can dress to your own taste.

Above the great hall is the minstrels gallery, this is a perfect area for the photographer to stand and take amazing pictures of the double height panelled room, this room leads out onto the paved courtyard of the private garden where your guest s can enjoy a pre dinner drink.

For this venue you would need to hire out a mobile bar which can be set up in the Tudor Kitchen just off the Great Hall, there is a Grand piano for use in the Great Hall, no charge for usage or tuning.

The surrounding gardens are a masterpiece in their own right with amazing sculptured hedges akin to a children’s fairytale and has been kept immaculate.

Hall place can cater for 100 seated guests in the great hall, catering is by Relish who are local, professional and competitive.

****10% Off Wedding Photography Packages at Cooling Castle Barn****

Kent Wedding venue Cooling Castle Barn is located on the outskirts of London, in fact a 35 minute drive from Greenwich positioned within the rural peninsular of North Kent.

We went to see Cooling Castle barn yesterday as a potential venue for our own wedding, according to their calendar they are a very popular venue and it is very easy to see why, as soon as we walked in we were greeted by one of the staff who knew both of our names and knew we were coming, you may think that is pretty standard but believe me we have been to lots of venues who didn’t even know we were coming, she was extremely friendly, professional and knowledgeable, as she walked us through the venue she described what would happen in every room, and how we would enter, it made me visualise my day in the venue, out of every venue we have been to this is the venue where I thought we would be taken care of and everything would run smoothly.

To celebrate us getting married at Cooling Castle Barn we are offering a unique Cooling Castle Barn wedding photography special offer, anyone who books with us who are also getting married at Cooling Castle Barn will get a 10% discount plus our Honeymoon Album presented to you on the same day as your wedding.

Cooling castle barn dates back to the 17^th century and is adjacent to Cooling Castle, the barns themselves are beautiful with high exposed beams and natural brickwork which gives you a blank canvas to choose your own colour scheme.

Just to quote from the first page of their booklet:

“We are different.  We want each and every one of our couples to feel special.  We believe in giving a dedicated and personal service.  We are here to help you plan and organise your day, and we aim to make the planning as exciting as the day itself.  We would like to share your day with you.  We are unique.  We are … COOLING CASTLE BARN”

That is the feeling you get when you walk in, I knew as I was walking around that this had to be where I got married, it felt special as I walked around, as with some barns it didn’t have that damp old smell which had previously put me off anything historical.

The Fathom Barn is where the ceremony will be held and this too has high beams and natural brickwork, the bride arrives dramatically onto a raised balcony and then walks down the stairs towards the 60ft promenade down the aisle.  The last Barn which is the Heritage Barn is where your guests arrive and wait to be called by the toast master into the ceremony room; this has a home from home feel with its warm and cosy feel.

The Tithe Barn is where you would have your wedding breakfast and your evening celebrations, the DJ has a suspended area above the space which enables great lighting, the vertical beams can be used to place uplighters, creating the perfect atmosphere whilst eating, this Barn can seat up to 160 for a wedding breakfast and 250 guests for the evening celebration.

 
Another bonus about cooling castle barn is that your guests get to choose from 3 dishes rather than everyone having the same, kids can have Pizza and chips or sausage and mash if they want to or half adult portions, I love chicken so everyone would have had to have chicken like me at least now they have a choice.

The outside space is equally beautiful with plenty of lovely backdrops for photo opportunities; overall I found this the perfect wedding venue and can’t wait to get married there.
