Large Weddings at Holdsworth House
60–120 daytime guests · up to 150 evening guests
With more than 60 years of experience hosting weddings, Holdsworth House is well suited to larger celebrations that require space, organisation and careful attention to detail. Set within a historic Jacobean manor in Halifax, West Yorkshire, the house provides an established and elegant setting for weddings of scale.
Our large wedding packages are designed to offer structure where it matters, while remaining flexible enough to reflect your priorities. From guest numbers and layouts to food, timings and personal touches, our experienced wedding team works closely with you to ensure the day runs smoothly and feels considered throughout.
We host both traditional and more informal large weddings, with options available across peak summer dates and quieter midweek celebrations. If you are planning a more intimate celebration, you may also wish to explore our small wedding packages. For couples seeking complete privacy, Exclusive Use is available, allowing the entire hotel and all 32 bedrooms to be reserved solely for your wedding day.
