Shotton Grange Wedding Venue – Just a Stone’s Throw from Newcastle

Shotton Grange offers an unforgettable experience, blending the charm of the countryside with the convenience of proximity to Newcastle. Its peaceful surroundings allow you and your guests to escape the city and relax in this serene setting. The venue boasts everything you need for a perfect day – from multiple function rooms and luxurious accommodations to picturesque grounds that provide stunning backdrops for your photos.

Exchange your vows in the beautifully restored Coach House, which can host up to 110 guests. Afterwards, explore the venue’s various rooms, including the cocktail bar, Drawing Room, and the cozy Snug. For those dreaming of an outdoor wedding, the lush gardens and sprawling grounds offer a perfect setting, much like the wonderful day Amy and Niall enjoyed at Shotton Grange.

With eight gorgeously decorated bedrooms in the manor house, including a bridal suite with a private dressing room, you and your guests can stay in style. There’s also an annexed cottage for additional accommodations, bringing the total guest capacity to 22.

Let’s Say ‘I Do’ – Shotton Grange Wedding Photography

Shotton Grange provides three unique options for your wedding ceremony. Whether you choose to exchange vows in the charming Coach House, amidst the beauty of the Georgian walled garden, or under the stunning avenue of trees on the front lawn, your day will be truly special.

As an award-winning photographer with over 150 accolades and experience of shooting more than 300 weddings, capturing your day at Shotton Grange would be an honor. My approach is authentic and relaxed – I focus on documenting moments and emotions without staging or posing, allowing you to enjoy a genuine wedding day experience rather than a photoshoot.

After the Vows – What Happens Next?

Once you’ve said “I do,” treat your guests to a cocktail and canape reception in the beautiful walled gardens. The Master of Ceremonies will guide you into The Coach House for your first meal together as a married couple. Shotton Grange’s award-winning chefs are on hand to create a custom menu paired with fine wines, ensuring your wedding breakfast is a delight.

The Amazing Walled Gardens at Shotton Grange

The walled gardens at Shotton Grange are an oasis of calm and beauty. Imagine exchanging vows in The Summerhouse, with the lush greenery and blooming flowers providing a breathtaking backdrop. Whether you’re enjoying the decked area or exploring the estate’s mature woodland, you’ll be surrounded by natural beauty.

With outdoor wedding ceremonies fully licensed at Shotton Grange, you can say “I do” under the open sky, making unforgettable memories like Amy and Anthony did on their big day.

Exclusive Use and Evening Reception

Shotton Grange lives up to its tagline of “Exclusive Elegant Weddings.” Having the entire venue to yourself creates an intimate atmosphere where you and your guests can celebrate in complete privacy. You’ll laugh, cry, dance, and make memories in this secluded haven.

As the evening unfolds, the venue offers an impressive selection of wines, beers, spirits, and expertly crafted cocktails. With exclusive use, you can also enjoy a discount on live band or DJ bookings through AMV Live, allowing you to customize your evening entertainment.

Why not impress your guests with rustic wood-fired pizzas from an authentic pizza van or a mouth-watering hog roast? Under the romantic glow of festoon lights, you can dance the night away until midnight. For those wanting to extend the party, you can opt for a late close to keep the celebrations going until 1 am, before retreating to your luxurious accommodations.
