Description

Within the historic setting of Blake Hall, and its lovely gardens, we are proud to offer you the beautifully restored 17th century barns as the perfect venue for your wedding. Blake Hall is only offered for exclusive use and is licensed for civil ceremonies, either inside the converted Hay Barn or outside under the canopy of the Old Saddlery. Reception drinks can be enjoyed either outside on the pretty lawn and terrace between the barns, or inside in the spacious Hay Barn. This leaves the Essex Barn for the wedding breakfast and evening entertainment. The Old Coach House, and its impressive dressing room, is close by, sleeps six and is available for the night before your wedding. Staying here with your family or bridesmaids is a great way to start the wedding festivities. Blake Hall is also proud to offer Stable Cottage, a delightful one bedroom cottage for the newly weds to enjoy on the night of their wedding as well as the Tack Room, The Carpenter's Shop and the Horse Box for family and close friends. The seclusion and privacy of the Hall's stunning gardens and formal lawns and ancient trees provide countless opportunities for wonderful photographs and our experienced co-ordinators will be there to ensure your special day is stress-free and unforgettable.

What really struck me was the wonderful staff
This was a professionally run wedding venue. It was beautifully clean and suited the young couple whose wedding we attended as guests. What really struck me was the wonderful staff who looked after us. They were attentive, helpful with a degree of humour. Didn't get to appreciate everything about the place as the heavy downpours kept us inside for some of the time but the gardens looked well maintained. The wedding barn itself has ample space to provide plenty of tables and the usual popular are

The venue was stunning on our wedding day
I recently had a traditional Sri Lankan Buddhist wedding at Blake Hall. We searched far and wide for venues and visited many but felt that they did not quite match the vibe for a Buddhist wedding. When we visited Blake Hall, we knew this was the venue for us (beautiful, serene, tranquil and incredible flowers - everything required to match Buddhist values). The venue was stunning on our wedding day and there are plenty of incredible photo opportunities. The insides of both barns are meticulous.

A huge thank you to the team
A huge thank you to the team at Blake Hall. Danni first showed us around in 2022, and we were blown away by the venue. Julie has been incredible throughout answering lots of questions. Waters Edge Catering has been great, Dave made sure we were happy with everything and was happy to make modifications. The food was incredible, I heard a lot of guests compliment the food, the service on the day was amazing too. Overall, an absolutely stunning venue. The guests were blown away.

Everything was absolutely perfect
We honestly can't thank Blake Hall enough for everything they did for us to make our wedding day the best day of our lives. Everything was absolutely perfect. The grounds at Blake Hall are stunning and so well kept - the gardeners were there each morning ensuring that the grass and flowers were in their best condition. The staff could not do enough for us, they were so friendly and went above and beyond to make all our dreams come true. We haven't stopped thinking about the day ever since.

The cottage is wonderful
From a Hair and Makeup Artists point of view, the prep area at the cottage is wonderful. It's light, spacious and the two work stations are great, lots of space for our products and photo opportunities.

Absolutely fantastic venue
Absolutely fantastic venue, attention to detail, quality service, quality food, magnificent location. Just enjoyed celebrating my son’s wedding at Blake Hall Weddings and Events Ltd. What a venue, thoughtful, caring organisers, well run. Their attention to detail is exceptional, smoothness of the process etc is a joy. Having spent a long career in the hotel and hospitality business, I can really appreciate what goes into providing this service.

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue
Blake Hall, where do we start? We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding. Not only are the gardens and venue absolutely stunning, but every single member of staff went above and beyond to make everything seamless, turning our dream into a reality. Their attention to detail, from the very point we booked the venue, was just incredible and their genuine care made us feel so at ease throughout the whole process and of course, on the special day.

The most beautiful indoor ceremony space
Blake Hall Weddings probably has the most beautiful indoor ceremony space in Essex. Even when the weather isn’t on your side the lighting is just perfect!
