WELCOMING YOUR EVENING GUESTS

Many couples invite a second wave of guests to join the evening wedding reception, and Tern Hill Hall makes it easy. With space for up to 240 guests, free parking and 12 en-suite bedrooms for those staying over, your evening arrivals will feel every bit as welcome as those who’ve been with you all day.

We’ll help you plan timings so the transition feels natural, from the arrival of evening guests to the cutting of the cake and your first dance.

EVENING WEDDING FOOD YOUR GUESTS WILL TALK ABOUT

Evening reception food should be relaxed, generous and a little bit fun. Choose from buffet-style dishes and casually served grazing tables, or crowd-pleasing favourites like fish and chips, pizza and hot bowl food.

If you have something different in mind, just ask; our chefs love a challenge. It’s the perfect way to refuel the dance floor and give evening guests a proper welcome.

ENTERTAINMENT AND DANCING UNTIL LATE

From a live band or a DJ spinning your favourite tracks to photo booths, lawn games and other unique touches, we’ll help you build an evening that reflects you as a couple.

You’re welcome to bring your own DJ or band, and we have some great local recommendations if you’d like them. Many musicians offer full-day packages too, with an acoustic set during your drinks reception and a bigger setup for the evening party.

Prefer something more laid back?

If you’re looking for a relaxed, informal vibe for your evening reception, we can create a laid-back atmosphere with casual seating, food stations and background music. Cosy gathering or lively celebration, the evening will reflect your style.
