Weddings
We understand that your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life!
Nestled on Ashton green, near Oundle and adjoining The Chequered Skipper, The Butterfly Suite is a perfect venue for your wedding reception.
Being fully air-conditioned, with its own break out areas and having its own bar, The Butterfly Suite is a self-contained and independent venue allowing you to celebrate in complete privacy.
We can cater for up to 60 guests within The Butterfly Suite, but if you are thinking of a larger reception, we can provide a private marquee adjoining the rear of the suite, allowing us to cater for up to 220 people.
Our food is lovingly prepared within our kitchen, and we can tailor menus to meet your own individualised requirements. We also have an extensive, well stocked cellar, so we are able to cater for your drink requirements including a good selection of sparkling wines and champagnes to accompany your celebration.
Every celebration hosted here can be completely bespoke and tailored to your individual needs, or you might want to consider one of our fantastic wedding packages offering you great choice and value.
With our very own team of resident musicians, we can also arrange background live mood music for you.
Recently refurbished, The Butterfly Suite is decorated in a contemporary and eclectic style. In addition, the walls are adorned with artworks from local artists and designers adding to the quirky nature and atmosphere of the venue.
We are a family-run business, so we understand what it takes to make your day special.
