The Ariana Experience
Arriving at Ariana is part of the appeal. Guests enter through a private gated estate, where security and parking attendants ensure a smooth welcome with on-site parking. Inside, the bright, open-plan Grand Hall can host up to 800 guests for a sit-down meal. The striking glass-fronted conservatory leads out onto the private gardens, making it an ideal space for outdoor drinks receptions, wedding portraits, or even a bouncy castle for little ones in the summer. The venue also provides state-of-the-art sound and lighting, wireless microphones and a professional PA set-up, so every speech, song and first dance can be brought to life.

At Ariana, the little details are given just as much thought as the grand ones. The bridal suite provides a calm retreat for hair and make-up or a moment of calm during the day. Behind the scenes, a team of dedicated wedding coordinators, will ensure your big day runs smoothly, so you and your loved ones can enjoy every moment.

Freedom and Flexibility
Ariana is open seven days a week, with flexible timings for both afternoon (10:30 am – 5:00 pm) and evening (5:30 pm – 11:00 pm) events. Celebrations can even run late into the night, thanks to its 1 am licence. Couples can choose a full-service wedding package, covering everything from catering and décor to cakes, or simply hire the hall and gardens and bring in their own suppliers.

Countryside charm at Ariana Gardens (Essex)

For couples searching for a wedding venue with all the grandeur of London yet the tranquillity of the countryside, Ariana Gardens is the perfect option. With a capacity for 650 seated guests, the spacious manor house is the ideal venue for those who want space, elegance and exclusivity on their big day.

Flexible Spaces

The venue is set across two floors, both of which can be tailored to your celebrations. You can welcome guests with a chic drinks reception on one floor before leading them to a lavish wedding banquet on the other. Alternatively, you can create distinct spaces for different cultural traditions, ensuring each part of the celebration has its own character.

When it comes to catering, Ariana Gardens offers complete flexibility. The venue’s talented chefs can prepare Asian, Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi cuisine, or couples can bring in their own caterers to create a menu that reflects their heritage and tastes.

Nature as your Back-drop
The focal point of the venue is of course its beautiful gardens. The Main Hall leads into a glass-fronted conservatory that opens onto private manicured gardens that are perfect for alfresco drinks, wedding photography or even outdoor games to entertain younger guests. There’s also a covered shisha bar, which is a favourite spot for those looking to unwind.

Created to fit your budget
Unlike many venues, Ariana Gardens and its sister site Ariana Banqueting Hall don’t rely on one-size-fits-all packages. The team here believes in flexibility and will work within your budget. Whether you want understated elegance or full-on opulence, the Ariana Group will ensure that your wedding celebrations feel personal, authentic and unforgettable.
