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!).
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!
Get swept away for the day, with hire of Pearly Cow from 12.30pm until 5pm. Gather your nearest & dearest at Pearly Cow for a day of sublime cuisine in the historic walled city of York, for a truly memorable wedding breakfast. In the Summer months, you can extend your reception onto the Pearly Cow terrace too.
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.
You can also hire Pearly Cow for the full day starting from 12.30 through until midnight too, starting at £7,350 midweek in the Winter (including 8 bedrooms), through to £16,250 on a Saturday in the Summer (including 12 bedrooms). Bedrooms can be re-sold to your guests to reduce the cost of the minimum spend payable.
There is nothing quite like having the whole place to yourself - make yourself at home! Weddings at No 1 York can you give all the space you need...
You're calling the shots - it's all up to you, with no off-the-shelf packages in sight - that's a relief. Take all 38 rooms for a set price (and if you want to pass on the costs to guests, that's cool too), and then depending on the time of year & day of week, we have varying minimum spends. If you want to keep your belt a little tighter, go for a Winter wedding in the week - if you're happy to splurge a little, take a look at our sunny Summer prices.
Available with a minimum spend from £11,000 including all our bedrooms and breakfast. For full details, please contact the team using the enquiry form below.
Why not take the whole hotel for yourself on the biggest night of the year and party the night away with your nearest and dearest? Take all 38 rooms (if you want to pass on the costs to guests, we can help sort that), the Marmalade Lounge, Rhubarb Bar and of course Pearly Cow.
Our exclusive use fee for New Year's Eve covers all areas of the hotel including all 38 bedrooms and breakfast for up to 76 guests - £16,675
A minimum spend of £10,000 is required on food & drink
