From a photographers perspective, this is a really exciting wedding venue which offers variety, a relaxed atmosphere, beautiful photography opportunities – and amazing ceremony light.

GGs yard has a lot to offer, and you can see by the diagram above to give you an idea for decor, seating and your wedding timeline. With plenty bathrooms and dry areas throughout the venue, you wont be stuck for choice on where to have your drinks reception and canapes, or your group photos if it’s raining.
You’ll see from the diagram too that there’s little nooks that people can hang out in if they wish to get away from the craziness. Sometimes folk just want to relax, get away from the noise and catchup with relatives that they havent seen in ages. GG’s yard have thought about everything!
GG’s yard’s pricing is exceptional for what you’re getting! Take a look at their pricing here. I’d get in there early to bag these prices, as planning my own wedding I know how expensive venues are! I would get married here in a heartbeat, but sadly they’re only open to weddings from Jan 2018 onwards.
With regards to catering, they have a team of in-house caterers who work closely with you to put together your perfect menu. One less thing to think about when it comes to a DIY wedding!
