Your Dream Wedding Venue near Newcastle upon Tyne

Could not have asked for better. From our initial enquiry to the day of the wedding the Shortflatt wedding team were so approachable. They were also contactable even for the smallest questions and nothing ever seemed too much work or inconvenience. The location speaks for itself but the organisation around the wedding meant that it flowed really well, everyone knew where to be and what was happening which just meant everyone relaxed and possibly had slightly too good a time! Location, accommodation night before and night of, food, drink, coordination with our suppliers can’t be faulted. Thank you so much to everyone who made our day so wonderful, we wish it just didn’t have to go so fast!

Where do we start, just WOW! It is hard to put into words what an incredible experience and wedding we had at Shortflatt Tower. It was everything we wanted and more! The most stunning and characterful venue and surroundings with such a special feel. And the team at Shortflatt, especially Lois and Eleanor, went out of their way to ensure we were so well looked after, and every little detail was covered. We never felt any question or query was a problem and it was such a pleasure dealing with the Shortflatt Team and building such a nice relationship. We couldn’t be happier with how thorough the whole team were, going out of their way to meet our wishes and ensuring our day ran smoothly. All of our guests were really well looked after throughout, and it was amazing to see their reaction to the venue. They all loved it! The enthusiasm and energy from everyone was amazing and really helped make our wedding so fun and memorable. Our guests were amazed by the ‘hidden’ ceremony room and kept getting surprises by discovering new parts of the venue. Guests couldn’t believe the ceremony room was the same place we had our wedding breakfast and evening do as it transformed and opened up into such a perfect, light space. The food and service was incredible and flowed so well, we never felt hurried (even though the day goes by so fast!) Our guests were also delighted with all the accommodation and very complimentary of all the décor. Some of them have already mentioned re-booking to stay there for a weekend away! We really couldn’t have asked for a better wedding, and the venue and staff at Shortflatt Tower played a huge role in that.

Thank you for all of your hard work making our wedding day so special! We look forward to visiting Shortflatt Tower again in future and watching it continue to develop with your magic touch 🙂 Thank you again!

We wanted to say a huge thank you for having us on our special day. We absolutely fell in love with the venue and it was the perfect place for us to have our autumn wedding - it's such a gorgeous place! The venue is so beautiful with so many areas to explore and admire. All of the team were so friendly, helpful and accommodating. You were so invested in our vision, down to the finest detail - for this we are grateful. You filled us with reassurance and confidence. We thoroughly enjoyed being able to use the house on the night before the wedding, which flowed so nicely into our big day! We couldn't have asked for more from a venue - the food, drinks choice, accommodation, gardens and surroundings were absolutely stunning. All this supported by a fabulous team! We had a wonderful day and wish we could do it all over again!

Thank you SO much for the most beautiful and wonderful wedding day!! We still haven't stopped talking about it and everything was truly faultless. You are all so wonderful at what you do - planning and organising has been easy and fun all the way through and on the day there was nothing for us to do except enjoy our day. The venue is just the most beautiful place and will always be very special to us - all of our guests have commented as well. We were all stunned by the quality of our meals and loved having breakfast in the morning so thank you for organising this. You have all been delightful to work with and I already miss wedding planning! We cannot thank you all enough.
