WEDDINGS IN HISTORIC YORK

Weddings at No 1 York

Tie the knot in the beyond charming walled city of York. Weddings at No 1 York are truly a sight to behold...

Your fairy-tale wedding dreams can come true at No.1 - take over Pearly Cow for the day, or go all-out with a whole-house takeover.

Our regency townhouse has been lovingly transformed into a palatial city pad, ready to host up to 50 guests for a wonder-filled wedding day (or longer!).

Walled-city-wonder

Get carried away with your wedding day at No.1 York. Say 'I do' in the chicest of settings - or perhaps the majesty of the Minster - and experience the wild freshness of Pearly Cow's wedding menus, and make yourself at home with a whole-house takeover, with room for 76 to stay the night and 100 to party.

The perfect wedding venue does not exi...oh wait. It does now!

Pearly Cow Exclusive Use Weddings

Get swept away for the day, with hire of Pearly Cow from 12.30pm until 5pm.

  • Use of the Pearly Cow terrace from May - September (weather allowing)

Hire of Pearly Cow for the day varies from day of the week to the time of year, with the minimum spend midweek in Winter starting a £2,550 ranging up to £6,975 for a Saturday in Summer, both including three guest bedrooms plus a suite for the happy couple. Your menu & pre-arranged drinks choices go towards your minimum food & drink spend and can be formed as you wish from our menus.
