New Hall - Sutton Coldfield

Hi everyone. We've just fixed our venue at New Hall in Sutton near Birmingham. I am so excited that we finally found the perfect place.

We're getting married on 5 December 2009 - just wondered if anyone else is getting married there and maybe we could share ideas?

Hi Brum79 yes im getting maried here on the 12/12/2009 and am so excited!!! the venue is gorgeous... however a little dubious about the weding co-ordinator as she hasnt actually made the effort to meet us yet after 6 months of dealing with the venue, a little worrying, but not gong to let it get me down. what ideas have you got so far??x

Hi both - I'm getting married there in June 2009.
A few worries too with the wedding co-ordinator but I think it's just that it's a bit too far away to have too much contact, especially with the changes going on with the marquee / music etc.
Really excited about the venue - nothing else in the midlands area really compares to it. great photo opps even if it rains (we're getting married glastonbury weekend so it's quite likely to rain!

Hi we are looking at new hall for 2010 what are the costs like. thanks

Hi Kaylabear

We have paid roughly £3500 for the civil ceromany and the hire of the marquet, then about £40 per head x

Hi girls im having our wedding reception in Sutton Coldfield, i just wante to give you details of a company i have found to be amazing they are called seats and treats. They are doing my seat covers i cant stop raving about them lol www.seatsandtreats.com
They came to my house to show me samples to make sure i was happy with the colour of sashes etc. They also offered me a 25 % discount and a low deposit so it worth getting in touch. info@seatsandtreats.com

Hi - any feedback from New Hall brides?

I have this as one of my chosen 3 venues, we have another one provisionally booked, but i do love new hall - and so depending on numbers, we may change.

The wedding planner is a bit of a sticking point, so I was just wondering how it all went?

Any advice would be much appreciated xxx

hi there
we've got our first proper organising meeting with Elizabeth end of the month but things are looking OK now.. . will keep you posted!!

Hi ya, update for you, up to now elizabeth hasbeen rubiish, even when my dad read through the contract that you have to sign, he sent her loads of queries and she took 2 weeks to come back to him and hardly answered any of them, we havent actually met her yet (wedding has been booked since aug last year!) however... i emailed her on sunday evening this week to answer 8 questions about what we are/arent allowed to do, and fair play to her, she emailed me back on monday with answers to all. she didnt fill me with great confidence when we first started dealing with her, but she has had a quick response to my last questions which i am happy with. she is also setting up a practice table for me so i can see what it looks like, and is trying her best to help me, so things are looking up!! plus the new marquee has now been built so going on sat to have a look, so excited!x

Thanks for the advice girls, I emailed her this week with some questions (as we are till umming and arring), she didn't reply so I sent it to the main email address marked for her attention and she then answered.
I just think her attitude is slightly harsh and it has put me off - which is a great shame as I love the venue.

I had a look at the new marquee a few weeks ago and it is lovely!

Keep us posted please!!!
