Imagine the wedding day of your dreams, an idyllic venue in Newmarket, superb cuisine and sensational service. Our elegant white stucco building, parts of which date back to the 17th century, and stunning rose gardens provide a romantic backdrop for your wedding photographs and create the perfect environment in which to enjoy canapes and a glass of champagne with your guests.
The recently refurbished and upgraded Classics Suite offers the perfect wedding venue - based in Newmarket, Suffolk we are conveniently close to Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds and even London is just an hour away. We are fully licensed for civil ceremonies, so you can choose to have this as well as your reception at the hotel. Our three self-contained banqueting suites can accommodate an intimate wedding of 10, to a more lavish celebration with up to 150 day time guests.
Here at Bedford Lodge Hotel & Spa, we appreciate no two weddings are the same and offer a completely bespoke package. Our dedicated Wedding Coordinator will be on hand to guide you through the planning process.
