Hi All,

Originally my wedding plan was for a nice cheap wedding abroad with just close friends and family. However due to health reasons a uk wedding is looking more suitable,but this has raised the issue of additional guests and family members wanting to attend. Trying to still be MSE and not cost a fortune though so was wondering if anyone knew of any town halls or cheap venues for hire in the region, travel is ok but not too far. I have done some goggling but not alot has come up but I am sure there is some lovely little village halls round and about. May just need to do some driving around and hunt them out but any help or ideas anyone could offer would be really great.

Thanks

A friend of mine got married in bishop Auckland townhall and it was dirt cheap. They went to the Castle around the corner for photos!

Great Smeaton Village Hall charges £50 for a full day hire including all the tables and chairs. It's a lovely little hall and is inbetween Darlington and Northallerton. I have some pics I can send if you like?

There is also a newly built Village Hall in Low Worsall

I'm glad I saw this post as we're in exactly the same boat! So far from looking we've found a couple but it depends what you deem as low cost really -

Hurworth Grange Community Centre is gorgeous, a big old country house with lots of pretty grounds. They quoted me £900 to hire the entire building for Friday to give you chance to set up, then the whole Saturday. There's a few rooms and this includes bar hire including staff http://www.hurworthgrange.co.uk/index.html

Hutton Rudby village hall is is a bit the same, lots of rooms, with a little play park outside with nice views of the hills. They charge £750 for the whole building Friday night- Sunday midday but it's a bit out of the way of Darlington, nearer Stockton way http://www.thevillagehall.com/facilities.html

Sadberge village hall is £500 for the full weekend package, that includes the silk drapes which some places charge extra for and a license for a cash bar which apparently you can't get in most village halls. http://www.sadberge.org.uk/hall/main_hall.htm

I found this site really useful, it has a list of all the village halls in the area, it has a brief description of the facilities, I found that if there's any you like the look of, Google them and a lot of them have their own website with more details and prices etc. http://www.tvvh.org.uk/listing.php?node=13

Hope you've found this helpful!
