Description
Located in picturesque Essex countryside, The Reid Rooms is a wonderful venue for all seasons, comprising a selection of handsome weather-boarded barns surrounding an attractive courtyard. Set against a stunning rural backdrop and with beautiful gardens, complete with moated Farmhouse accommodation, our venue provides the perfect setting for your wedding day.
Licensed for civil ceremonies, held in either the stunning beamed Ceremony Room or outside at The Meadow Pavilion or Garden Pavilion during the summer months.
We can offer field hire for those of you looking for a festival-style wedding, with or without a licensed ceremony location.
We pride ourselves on our flexibility. You may bring in any supplier of choice, including caterers, and provide your own wine and Prosecco for the day, all with no corkage charge. There is a fantastic package option too. We run a fully staffed licensed bar for the evening reception.
The venue can accommodate small, intimate weddings or more extravagant celebrations of up to 150 guests for the wedding breakfast. We can accommodate up to 200 for the evening reception.
We understand how important your wedding day is and we are committed to doing everything we can to give you the day of your dreams.
