Asian Weddings

We are popular for Asian weddings due to the scale of the venue. Able to accommodate 500 guests within one suite, or up to 900 with a split room option (ideal for male and female separate events) there is plenty of room within bright spaces offering natural daylight and picturesque parkland.
