Description

Dating back to 1066, the estate is believed to be the extensive Staffordshire woodland noted in the Doomsday Book. The Grade II listed Queen Anne residence has been home to five generations of the Williams family - and their heritage remains firmly at its heart today. Over the past 10 years, in the hands of its current owners, the picturesque and secluded estate has been renovated and reimagined to become a highly-sought after venue for weddings, private events and corporate retreats. Offering an abundance of versatile event spaces accommodating from 50 to 650 guests, Alrewas Hayes is equally suited to large-scale celebrations through to more intimate weddings. Bathed in natural light and with a flourish of period touches throughout, The Orangery is an events space that brings an air of elegance to every occasion. Located within the wing of the house and featuring a distinctive curved ceiling, arched windows and opening out on to The Courtyard, it's the ideal setting for wedding ceremonies. Accommodating from 50 guests up to 180, The Lakeside is set overlooking the estate's private lake, woodlands and wheat fields. A blank canvas for the creative, The Lakeside can be transformed for any type of occasion and offers direct access to both The Courtyard and Williams Bar. Accessed via its own private walkway, the Great Barn is the largest space within Alrewas Hayes, accommodating events from 180 to 650 guests. Reminiscent of a cool airport hanger from the outside yet sleek and contemporary on the inside, it's a place where the unimaginable is possible. The Great Barn houses state-of-the-art production facilities including image mapping, world-class lighting and sound and staging systems. Alrewas Hayes is available to hire on an exclusive basis seven days a week, throughout the year.

Alrewas Hayes
We got married at Alrewas Hayes in July 2024, and our experience with the venue was absolutely perfect from start to finish. In the planning stages, the venue made everything so easy for us - they really thought of everything, so that we didn't have to. On the day, everything was seamless. Our guests couldn't talk highly enough about how stunning the venue was, as well as the quality of service and food. A special thank you to Olivia, who was our wedding co-ordinator, and did everything to ensure that we had our dream wedding day!

I'm so glad I chose this beautiful venue to get married in, it was my dream venue. The decor inside the lakeside is already setup and is stunning everything is so elegant. Elise and the team were so lovely and helped so much with the wedding and when I had any questions. Amazing service. My guests also loved the venue and said it was so unique. I would defiantly recommend this wedding venue and would love to go back and relive that day again. Thank you so much Alrewas Hayes for being wonderful!

The most beautiful wedding venue!!
The most beautiful wedding venue! From our first look 18 months out from our wedding as soon as we saw this venue we both knew it was perfect! The staff at Alrewas Hayes went above and beyond to make sure our planning and day went smoothly. A special mention to Amie who was with us from that first look through to our wedding day and without her and her amazing hard work our day would not have ran as smoothly as it did. The special and extra touches at Alrewas Hayes you will not find elsewhere. Our guests all commented on how beautiful this wedding venue was and the food that was outstanding. Could not recommend this venue enough!!

The best wedding venue with the most amazing team!
The most beautiful venue I’ve ever been to, we knew we had to get married here! After a few date changes, which the team were so patient and kind about, we finally picked the day and got to planning. The entire team from Alrewas helped us go through the day in detail and guided us with the planning, even getting in touch with all our vendors to ensure everything was ready! We visited Alrewas several times and each time was greeted with smiles. Our guests loved the venue and vendors even commented on how professional and kind the team were! Cannot recommend Alrewas enough! Special thanks to Emma P and Emma M for being so patient, welcoming and just downright amazing both before the big day and on the big day!!!

Everything I had dreamed of and more
Alrewas Hayes was the first venue we viewed and knew instantly it was the perfect place to get married. We often passed the brown tourist sign and wondered what it would be like, the photos online were so stunning, I actually set myself up to be disappointed when seeing it in person… however I was pleasantly proven wrong. I loved the way the venue flowed, everything is purposefully and thoughtfully designed. It felt intimate but spacious, open but secluded. It was perfect. Being able to have our dogs attend was another huge bonus of AH, we couldn’t imagine not having them as part of our day. We set our date and was guided every step of the way. Amie was our wedding Co ordinator and honestly went above and beyond, nothing was too much trouble and kept in constant contact. I was initially quite overwhelmed planning the whole day, however Amie look my rough ideas and together we crafted the perfect wedding. Every supplier I spoke to with regards to the wedding had nothing but good things to say about Alrewas Hayes. This put my mind at ease and it all came together exactly how I envisioned it. The morning of the wedding we got ready in the newly build ‘getting ready room’ then made our way to the bridal suite to put our dresses on. It was a nice touch to leave behind the mess of getting ready and made the photos in the bridal suite so much nicer. The rest of the day was a dream, so many moving parts behind the scenes but it was all taken care of without me even having to think about it. The wisteria in bloom in September was a real highlight and the formal photos in front of the house are stunning. Our fur babies joined us for the ceremony and drinks reception, they loved being around the grounds and fussed over. Having them as part of our day was incredible. We had so many compliments about the wedding breakfast, the food really was delicious. The bridal suite was the perfect place to spend the night as newlyweds, out of the way of all the other guests we really felt that we were away from everything. The bath was the perfect place to soak everything in the next day; before joining our guests for breakfast in the morning. We are so grateful that we had Amie to guide us from start to finish; she we there to wave us off the next day which as such a lovely touch. We felt like the only couple that got married their because the service was so wonderful and individualised. Thank you Amie and the whole AH team

Made our special day extra memorable
Immediately after stepping into Alrewas Hayes, we knew it was the wedding venue for us. Over the course of the next year we were incredibly fortunate to work with Amie, who was always on hand to answer any queries which we had. We have received so many positive comments from our guests about the venue, the organisation of the day and the food - and we would have to agree with them all! If you are looking for a place to make your special day even more memorable then look no further than Alrewas Hayes. We can't thank them enough for making our day such a perfect one.
