For Yorkshire wedding venues, look no further than one of these spectacular hotels

However, this isn't to say that it's impossible to find a nice place – obviously you don't want to get married in a shack, but you can get married anywhere provided the person performing the ceremony is qualified to do so. With this in mind, many luxury hotels are offering the use of their facilities to couples looking to marry. This kills an entire flock of birds with one stone – not only can you get married in the hotel, but you can hold the reception there (with the hotel kitchen doing the catering) and ensure that guests coming from far away have somewhere to stay that only involves them climbing up the stairs, rather than driving home on the same night.

rnCedar Court's hotels are perfect for this kind of occasion. If you're looking for wedding venues in Harrogate , Huddersfield, Wakefield, York or Leeds, the company's perfect balance between functionality and elegance within its hotels will ensure that your wedding looks and feels classy, but also takes place without any problems. The staff in every hotel knows how important it is to you that your big day is nothing less than a roaring success, and will do everything in their power to help you make it so.

rnOf course, the hotels also make perfect options for anyone looking for accommodation in Yorkshire in general. There are so many things to see and do in the county, such as rambling over the Haworth moors or taking in a football match at Elland Road, that you might only return to the hotel to sleep – conversely, you could just spend a few days in the hotel, getting beauty treatments, using the gyms and pools (if you're going to be staying at the hotel regularly, you can get a month free with six months' worth of membership), sampling some of the finest food this side of the Pennines in the restaurants and having a nightcap in the fully-stocked bars.

rnIn addition, the hotels make fantastic venues for any kind of business meeting or conference, as they are fully WiFi-enabled and have all sorts of presentation equipment and specific rooms that are capable of seating a few hundred delegates. Again, the accommodation issue may present itself but, because the conference is taking place in a hotel, it can easily be sorted.

rnAs the largest independent hotelier in the county, this company is dedicated to ensuring that your stay or event in Yorkshire is as easy and relaxing as possible. Simply find its website online to check availability for the hotel and time you want, or call them directly – they're always happy to help!
