Ardington House Wedding Hire

Ardington House is a stately home in South Oxfordshire that can be hired out exclusively for private and corporate events. A Georgian masterpiece, the house was built in 1720 and is set in its own extensive gardens and parkland. The house makes a great setting for corporate offsites, board meetings and team-building days, with exclusive use of the house, the grounds and its own river allowing for all manner of indoor and outdoor activities. There are also wedding packages on offer, for 50 to 200 guests.

We're proud to deliver event hire to Ardington House. Some of the items we can deliver include:

Ardington House accommodates weddings ranging from 50 to 200 guests within its Georgian architecture and expansive grounds. For these events, organisers frequently hire classic banqueting chairs, such as limewash Cheltenham or cross-back styles, to complement the historic interior. We supply round tables for formal dining, alongside rectangular trestles for buffets or gift stations. Our inventory includes white linen tablecloths, glassware sets, and stainless steel cutlery. For larger outdoor receptions on the lawn, we provide robust catering equipment, including ovens and refrigeration units, to support professional service teams.

When planning your equipment hire, calculate the total guest count early to determine the exact number of tables and chairs required for the floor plan. Consider the terrain of the parkland if you are placing furniture outside, as uneven ground may affect table stability. Since the house offers exclusive use, coordinate delivery times with the venue manager to avoid access issues during guest arrivals. We recommend ordering extra glassware and side plates to account for potential breakages or service changes during the day.

Expo Hire provides professional delivery services to Oxfordshire and the surrounding areas seven days a week. Our logistics team understands the requirements for stately home access, including the need for timely transport of bulky catering equipment and furniture. Delivery and collection fees are calculated based on the distance from our distribution centre to the venue. Please provide specific site instructions when placing your order so our drivers can navigate the grounds efficiently and unload your equipment at the designated location.

Ardington House accommodates weddings ranging from 50 to 200 guests within its Georgian architecture and expansive grounds. For these events, organizers frequently hire wooden cross-back chairs for outdoor ceremonies and trestle tables for wedding breakfasts. High-quality white linen, polished glassware, and stainless steel cutlery are standard requirements to match the formal setting of the house. We also supply essential catering equipment, such as hot cupboards and mobile refrigeration units, to support professional catering teams operating in the kitchen and garden areas.

When planning for this venue, consider the layout of the parkland and the indoor rooms to determine equipment quantities. For guest counts reaching 200, ensure you have enough glassware for multiple drinks services throughout the day. If you are hosting a marquee reception on the lawn, verify the ground surface to select appropriate table legs or floor coverings. We recommend creating a detailed floor plan to confirm the number of chairs and tables fits comfortably while leaving sufficient space for service staff and dance floors.
