At The Old Bridge Hotel, we offer couples a wedding venue that feels timeless, welcoming, and genuinely special. Set on the banks of the River Great Ouse, our beautifully restored 18th-century townhouse hotel provides a peaceful riverside setting that feels wonderfully secluded, while remaining close to the heart of Huntingdon.
The hotel is rich in character and charm, with elegant interiors that balance historic features with warmth and comfort. A collection of light-filled and intimate spaces allows us to host weddings of varying styles and sizes, from relaxed, informal celebrations to more traditional occasions. Each room flows naturally into the next, enabling your day to unfold effortlessly, without feeling staged or rushed. Outdoors, our riverside grounds and terrace provide a picturesque backdrop for drinks receptions and photographs throughout the seasons, with the water and mature trees creating a calm and romantic atmosphere.
We specialise in tailor-made weddings, taking the time to understand what matters most to each couple. From arrival drinks and canapés through to your wedding breakfast and evening celebrations, every element is carefully considered and designed around you. Food and drink are central to the experience at The Old Bridge Hotel. Our kitchen team creates elegant, generous menus using quality ingredients, while our expertly curated wine list offers a thoughtful selection of wines to complement your chosen dishes. Our team is always on hand to advise on pairings, ensuring a cohesive and memorable dining experience for you and your guests.
As the day transitions into evening, we offer theatre-style evening food that is designed to be both impressive and relaxed, encouraging guests to mingle and enjoy the celebrations well into the night. Whether you choose something informal or indulgent, the focus remains on flavour, presentation, and enjoyment.
In the lead up to your wedding, you will be supported by a dedicated wedding planner, guiding you through every stage of the planning process with calm expertise and attention to detail. On the day itself, an experienced wedding co-ordinator will be present to ensure everything runs seamlessly, allowing you to relax and be fully present with your guests, confident that every detail is being taken care of.
Our approach is personal, flexible, and thoughtful. Whether you are planning an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, we pride ourselves on creating weddings that feel relaxed, beautifully delivered, and truly reflective of each couple. With warm, attentive service at the heart of everything we do, we aim to create not just a memorable wedding day, but an experience you and your guests will cherish long after the celebrations end.
