Medieval timber beams frame your celebration at The Hospitium, where 600 years of York history creates an extraordinary wedding venue. We've watched countless couples exchange vows beneath our Gothic windows, with sunlight streaming across honey-colored stone walls and the ruins of St. Mary's Abbey visible through every pane. Our main hall transforms beautifully for weddings. We string fairy lights across the original 14th-century beams, creating warmth that dances off the ancient wood. The space welcomes up to 100 guests for your ceremony, arranged however suits your vision. When it's time for dining, we accommodate 120 seated guests around round tables, each positioned to enjoy views of both the historic interior and abbey ruins beyond. Your wedding flows naturally between our indoor and outdoor spaces. During drinks receptions, guests wander through Museum Gardens, discovering quiet corners among the ruins while you capture photographs against medieval stonework. We hold a civil ceremony license, so your entire celebration unfolds here, from afternoon vows through evening dancing. Getting here couldn't be simpler, just ten minutes' walk from York Railway Station. We've thoughtfully integrated modern touches including full AV equipment for speeches and music, while preserving every historic detail. Ramps and lifts ensure all your guests move comfortably through both floors, with accessible facilities throughout. What couples tell us they remember most is how the building itself becomes part of their story. The way afternoon light shifts across stone walls during speeches, how the abbey ruins glow at sunset during photographs, the intimate feeling created by centuries-old architecture. Our experienced team understands the unique considerations of marrying in a medieval building, from acoustic planning to lighting design, helping you craft the wedding day you've imagined within these historic walls.
