Hawkesyard Estate with magnificent Hawkesyard Hall and St Thomas’s Priory Golf Club is the most amazing venue for civil weddings from the intimate to the extravagant..

Sitting close to Lichfield, Stafford and Rugeley, Hawkesyard Hall with its gothic architecture, stunning formal gardens and first-class facilities is fast becoming Staffordshire's premier venue for civil weddings.

The estate dates back to the 12th Century and is spread over 200 acres of beautiful countryside. With ample free parking your wedding will take place at 18th Century Grade II listed Hawkesyard Hall with its battlements and pinnacles. Hawkesyard Hall provides a romantic setting for your fairytale wedding ceremony. Your civil ceremony takes place in the Lister Suite with its decoratively plastered high ceiling and chandelier, red carpet aisle and wooden floors overlooking the beautiful manicured gardens beyond.

Your party will enjoy a celebration drink before your wedding photographs set in formal gardens, complete with fountain, dovecote and other beautiful buildings, including the attractive Orangery. The Orangery has its own private bar and your guests can relax here while you capture magical wedding photographs to remember your special day.
