Stately affair
The Oxfordshire countryside is nothing short of stunning –
and
Eynsham Hall
doesn’t let down its surroundings.
Enveloped in vast parklands and manicured gardens, the
hall is still only a few minutes to busy Oxford – meaning
that however bad your guests’ sense of direction, you won’t
be interrupted while you buff up for your big day by phone
calls from stranded friends and family!
The stately building is an impressive sight to behold, and
provides various suites to suit any and all wedding receptions.
The ornate and historic décor will leave you feeling like royalty,
as you’re swept up in the romance of this historical hall.
The wedding coodinator will be at your beck and call to fill
in all the little details. Their extensive menu options will
mean a room full of happy tums, and Eynsham’s good
relationships with several local DJs and wedding
entertainers will mean your guests will be treated to a night
of fun, frivolity and throwing shapes.
