June 2026 Wedding Open Days
Whether you’re just starting your venue search or narrowing down a shortlist, there’s nothing quite like seeing a space in person. Here are the upcoming wedding open days and showcases happening across 2026.
Rise Hall
Date & Time: Thursday 4th June 2026, 5pm – 8pm
Informal, relaxed, and genuinely lovely – Rise Hall’s open evenings are the perfect way to get a real feel for the house and grounds without any pressure. The venue will be dressed and ready for a summer wedding, so you can picture exactly how your own day might look and feel.
Wander at your leisure, enjoy a glass of bubbly, and chat to the team about dates, questions, or anything else on your mind. Entry is free, but you’ll need to reserve your place in advance.

Mosborough Hall Hotel
Date & Time: Wednesday 10th and Thursday 11th June 2026
A 12th-century manor house on the edge of Sheffield, sitting in six acres of countryside close to the Yorkshire and Derbyshire borders — and a short drive from the Peak District. Mosborough Hall is one of those venues that genuinely has to be seen to land properly, which is exactly why these open days are worth attending.
The self-contained Chatsworth Suite, with its private bar, stone courtyard, pizza oven, and dance floor, sits separately from the main hotel and forms the heart of most weddings here. Ceremonies take place in the Haddon Suite (original wooden beams, formerly the old stables) or outdoors in the licensed Garden Pavilion. With 46 bedrooms on-site and an exclusive one-wedding-per-day policy, the whole place is yours.
Come along on either day to tour the spaces, meet wedding coordinator Kayleigh, and get a feel for whether this is the one.

- A relaxing spa treatment each
- Full access to the leisure facilities
- Lunch with bubbles in the Garden Rooms & Bar
A very good reason to go in with a decision in mind.

Bradbourne House

Each event is different, so if there’s something specific you’d like to see, it’s worth getting in touch before you come along.
On the day you can explore the venue, meet a variety of wedding suppliers on hand to help with planning, and put any questions to the team.
