Village Hotel Newcastle
Modern hotel wedding venue at Silverlink, between Newcastle city centre and the North Tyneside coast.
Village Hotel Newcastle is a modern hotel at Silverlink in North Tyneside, a short drive from Newcastle city centre and close to the coast. It hosts weddings and civil partnerships of all sizes, from intimate ceremonies for a handful of guests to large parties, with open-plan event spaces, a private bar area and an outdoor terrace. Having the ceremony, meal, party and guest rooms under one roof keeps the day simple for everyone.
Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples
A dedicated wedding coordinator builds a custom itinerary with you, so the day follows your plans rather than a fixed script. You are free to bring your own decorations and outside suppliers, from photographers to sweet carts, which makes it easy to shape the celebration around the people you already trust. The range of packages, including one for small weddings, means you are not pushed into a bigger event than you want.
Ceremonies
The hotel is licensed for civil ceremonies and civil partnerships, held in its own function suite. Registrars are booked separately through the local register office, and the coordinator can arrange a rehearsal if you would like one. Guests are asked to arrive 30 to 45 minutes before the ceremony begins.
Receptions and food
Receptions run in flexible open-plan spaces with room for a sit-down meal, a dancefloor and a bar. Menus range from traditional wedding breakfasts to more unusual choices, and evening buffets and late-night snacks such as bacon sandwiches and hot dogs are available. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and halal diets are catered for, and there are children's menus and highchairs.
Staying
The hotel has more than 150 bedrooms. Guests can book at a discounted wedding rate through a link you share, a getting-ready room can be arranged, and a group breakfast space can be set aside for the morning after. Some packages include a gym membership for the couple.
Getting there and the area
Silverlink sits just off the A19 near the Tyne Tunnel, with the A1 a short drive west. There is on-site parking for guests. Newcastle Central Station and Newcastle Airport are both within about 12 miles, and the beaches at Tynemouth Longsands and Whitley Bay are close by for photographs.
