What can you expect from Yorkshire wedding venue Bowcliffe Hall?
The perfectly manicured gardens at Bowcliffe Hall give a sense of tranquility. The Bowcliffe Estate offers 28 acres of spectacular grounds, with availability for a select number of marquee weddings. Built between 1805 and 1825, Bowcliffe retains the stately atmosphere of a country house, which is steeped in history.

A modern contrast is provided by the multi-award-winning Blackburn Wing – a 2,000-square-foot treehouse shaped like an aeroplane wing nestled in ancient woodland. Designed with meticulous attention to detail, the copper-and-glass masterpiece makes a spectacular venue.

Time to celebrate!
Couples can choose from two opulent ceremony spaces. The Bowcliffe Room (80 guests) offers the chance to walk down the aisle in a room that's the epitome of Georgian elegance, with its period features, high ceilings and double doors to a south-facing terrace. The Ballroom (135 guests) provides all-out glamour with its incredible chandelier and 23.5-carat gold gilded ceiling. It can also be transformed into the perfect reception space with its phenomenal sound system and hidden oak dancefloor set against beautiful garden views.

The contemporary Blackburn Wing (60 dinner guests and 120 reception guests) provides an exquisite setting for celebrations. Built as a tribute to Robert Blackburn, a Yorkshireman and aviation pioneer, this architectural showstopper is home to state-of-the-art facilities and will provide a memorable big-day backdrop. Subhead: We love...Couples marrying here will receive a 12-month membership to Bowcliffe Drivers Club. This private member's club is set in a grandiose space inspired by the 1920s and the golden age of motoring. It's also a stunning place for a drinks reception.

Why more couples are letting the coast shape their wedding day

For couples planning a wedding, the setting is increasingly becoming more than a backdrop. Research from WeddingDates found that 78% of UK couples consider location an important factor when choosing a venue, with more than a third specifically influenced by the view. Rockwater, the UK coastal hospitality brand with beachfront venues in Hove and Branksome, says this is helping reshape how couples approach weddings by the water. Rather than simply choosing a coastal venue and then planning the celebration independently of it, couples are increasingly allowing the landscape, changing light and relationship between indoor and outdoor spaces to influence the day itself. Rockwater has identified four of the key considerations shaping modern coastal weddings.

Something old, something gone: The British wedding traditions on borrowed time

Speeches given only by men (36%), a choreographed first dance (34%) and the formal receiving line (30%) are among the wedding traditions that couples are keenest to ditch, a new study reveals. Wearing a veil, the 15-minute father-of-the-bride speech with no speech from the bride, and the traditional tiered fruit cake are also increasingly falling out of favour as Brits tie the knot, researchers found.
