There’s something truly magical about a small, intimate wedding. When you choose to celebrate with your closest family and friends, every moment becomes more personal, every detail more meaningful, and every memory more lasting. At Woodhall Manor, nestled in the heart of the Suffolk countryside, we believe that small weddings can be just as grand, romantic, and unforgettable as any large celebration, perhaps even more so.
Embrace the Personal Touch
A smaller guest list gives you the freedom to focus on what truly matters, you, your partner, and the people you love most. Take the opportunity to add heartfelt touches throughout your day: handwritten notes for each guest, personalised favours, or a bespoke menu featuring your favourite dishes.
At Woodhall Manor, our expert wedding team will work with you to ensure every detail reflects your personality and story, creating a celebration that feels entirely your own.
Make the Most of the Setting
From the romantic walled gardens to the elegant banqueting rooms, Woodhall Manor offers countless beautiful backdrops for your special day. Exchange your vows beneath the dovecote, enjoy a Champagne reception in the gardens, or dine by candlelight in one of our stunning historic rooms.
An intimate wedding allows you to use the spaces in a more flexible and creative way, perhaps a cosy fireside supper or a sunset cocktail hour on the lawn. With fewer guests, the manor feels like your own private retreat.
Indulge in the Details
A smaller scale means you can elevate every detail. Think exquisite floral arrangements, artisan dining, and luxurious touches that make the day feel extra special. Our talented chefs can craft a tailored menu just for you, from seasonal local produce to indulgent desserts, ensuring your guests enjoy a truly memorable dining experience.
Spend More Time with the Ones You Love
With an intimate guest list, you’ll have time to truly connect with everyone who’s come to celebrate with you. There’s space for laughter, heartfelt conversations, and moments you’ll treasure forever. It also means your photographer can capture more candid, emotional moments that tell the real story of your day.
Extend the Celebration
Why not turn your wedding into a full weekend of celebration? At Woodhall Manor, you and your guests can stay overnight in our beautifully appointed bedrooms and suites, enjoy a leisurely breakfast the next morning, and make the most of your time together. It’s the perfect way to keep the magic alive just a little longer.
Whether you’re dreaming of a romantic elopement, a micro-wedding with a handful of guests, or a relaxed celebration surrounded by those who matter most, Woodhall Manor offers the ideal setting. Our dedicated wedding team will ensure every moment feels effortless, elegant, and unforgettable.
