The Mill Hoveringham Wedding Venue – A Beautiful Barn Setting for Bespoke Weddings
The Mill Hoveringham is a much-loved barn wedding venue in the East Midlands, known for its character, riverside setting and relaxed countryside feel. Set along the River Trent in Nottinghamshire, this historic mill offers couples a wedding venue that feels both rustic and elegant, making it a popular choice for those looking for something a little different.
The venue’s original features, exposed beams and open barn space create a stunning backdrop for ceremonies, wedding breakfasts and evening celebrations. With both indoor and outdoor areas available, The Mill Hoveringham allows couples to shape their day around the flow and style that suits them best.
Having previously worked at this beautiful venue, we know how well the space lends itself to weddings that feel personal and thoughtfully planned – especially when it comes to food.

A Bespoke Wedding Menu at The Mill Hoveringham
We served up a bespoke wedding menu for Steph and Liam, who celebrated their special day at The Mill. The menu was completely tailored to the couple and was delicious!
Canapés
The reception began with our chefs selection of canapés during cocktail hour. Canapés are perfect whilst guests are mingling and packed with flavour.

Bread
To begin the wedding breakfast we served up our homemade focaccia and raisin bread served with butter.

Starter
For a starter, Steph and Liam had a mini beef taco with black bean salsa, sour cream and smoked cheese.
The Main Event
Main course was a delicious butter-seared chicken supreme, with burnt butter carrot puree, potato galette, broad bean & thyme ragu with jus.
Dessert
For dessert, a classic – sticky toffee pudding, with caramelised pecans, toffee sauce and vanilla ice cream.

Evening Food
After a full day of celebrating, evening food is essential. Steph and Liam chose BBQ chicken skewer kebabs served with wraps and cabbage slaw, triple cooked chips and garlic mayonnaise.
