we love...

If your preference is for a Civil Ceremony at The Old Hall Ely, there are two different locations available to you. The Pavilion is set in the gardens with the dramatic backdrop of Ely Cathedral (Yes, Pixie Lott did get married here!) and the three lakes. The Orangery benefits from being mainly constructed with glass and is finished with English oak framing, allowing uninterrupted views from all angles. The Orangery creates a tranquil escape perfect for Autumn and Winter weddings. Youโ€™re surrounded by natureโ€™s beauty without having to leave the house โ€“ blending the boundaries between the environments, a dreamy and romantic atmosphere is created that entwines nature with comfort.

What Couples Say

“Hello to everyone at The Old Hall! We will be sending an official thank you but in the meantime Jamie and I wanted to say a HUGE Thank You for the most amazing day on Sunday. Itโ€™s hard to know where to start but we had the most perfect and wonderful day and that was thanks to the incredible venue, attentive and amazing staff and the delicious food and drink. From the moment we first viewed The Old Hall with Mrs Morbey we knew it was the place for us. Throughout the planning and up until the morning after the wedding itself we were looked after so well and made to feel so special. Special shout out to Tammy, Laura, Amy, Kirsty, the chefs, bar staff and food and beverage team who worked so hard on our big day. Our only criticism is it went far too fast and we want to do it all again!!! ๐Ÿ™‚ Thank you so so much from the new Mr and Mrs Harker and hope to return in the future for a special occasion.”

Mr & Mrs Harker, Oct 2023
