Leeds Wedding Venue

Thorpe Park Hotel & Spa is a modern hotel on the east side of Leeds, just off the M1. It’s easy for guests to get to, there are plenty of rooms to stay over, and the whole day can happen under one roof.

The Perfect Surrounding

Thorpe Park Hotel & Spa is at 1150 Century Way in east Leeds, a few minutes from junction 46 of the M1. It has 120 bedrooms, including a bridal suite, plus an on-site spa, so getting ready, the ceremony, the meal and the evening can all happen in one place.

The banqueting suite seats up to 150 for the wedding breakfast, with room for around 160 in the evening. It looks great with coloured uplighting, as you can see in the gallery below.

For photos, the sweeping staircase is lovely for the bride’s entrance, the circular terrace outside is perfect for the big group shot, and the small garden with its love seat and archway works well for relaxed couple portraits. I’m based near Barnsley, so Thorpe Park is an easy run up the M1 for me.

What Clients Say

Testimonial

  • Tim photographed our wedding at Aston Hall. Words cannot express how grateful myself and my husband are for Tim’s hard work, care and dedication to our wedding, not just the photography but every other element of the day too! From keeping me calm and making myself and the bridesmaids laugh in the morning, helping me walk in my dress, to making our shy page boy completely come out of his shell! Tim and his helper Julien have given us the most beautiful photos and memories to last us a lifetime and we can’t thank him enough. If you’re looking for a photographer that will take both beautifully staged and posed photo’s but also who will catch those precious candid moments that you might miss on the day, Tim is definitely the photographer for you. He will make even the guests that don’t like being photographed feel a million dollars, all of our guests have commented on how wonderful he was during the day and how magnificent the photos are. We also have to say, the process after the wedding has been seamless and so professional, from choosing our album photo’s to amending the design of the album itself. 5 Stars just doesn’t do you justice! Thank you Tim, you have been amazing!
