Wedding Venue in Nottingham
Discover everything you need to know about weddings at Nottingham Venues. We have two different venues to choose from and a dedicated event planning team to help organise your special day.
Something old, something new
When choosing a wedding at Nottingham Venues, you’ll have two options to choose from. Our conference centre is a modern blank canvas perfect for large weddings or the historic Trent Building is ideal for smaller more intimate weddings.
So whether you are looking for a traditional small venue in Nottingham or a larger function room, we can accommodate to your exact needs. Explore and compare our two venues below:
Trent Building
Enjoy the stunning landscaped surroundings and tranquillity of a traditional setting at the University of Nottingham. Nestled away amongst 330 acres of landscaped parkland is a beautiful location for your wedding ceremony in the Trent Building.
A favourite with alumni, step back in time with traditional oak-panelled rooms that lead through to the Great Hall, where a civil license enables you to tie the knot. Afterwards, relax and enjoy the serenity of the Senate Chamber for your wedding breakfast, with terraces leading down to the boating lake, perfect for a few snaps to capture memories of your day.
In the evening, the Great Hall is transformed to create a party atmosphere where you and your guests can party in to the early hours. Our chefs can create bespoke menus and our skilled operational team can ensure that everything is taken care of.
East Midlands Conference Centre
Stylish interiors, contemporary features and large landscaped gardens; our conference centre can be hired out exclusively for your wedding and offers a modern destination for weddings on a bigger scale.
Our Banqueting Suite is a popular choice for large weddings in the East Midlands region. Giving you the ability to host over 500 guests, this blank canvas space features neutral colour palettes, letting you design your wedding exactly how you choose.
