Your Wedding at The Highfield House
The Highfield House stands at Windmill Hill on the edge of Driffield, the market town often called the capital of the Yorkshire Wolds. It is a Tudor-style boutique house set in around seven acres of formal gardens and old woodland, with a chalk stream running through the trees, which is a lovely and unusual backdrop for photographs. The venue is booked on an exclusive-use basis, so for the duration of your wedding the house and grounds belong to you and your guests alone.
Inside, the house is licensed for civil ceremonies and mixes grand rooms with smaller, cosier corners. The Great Hall can seat around 40 for a close family meal, with dining for up to 60 overall, while the venue can welcome about 150 people in total once evening guests join. The landscaped lawns lend themselves to a relaxed drinks reception with garden games, and twelve bedrooms on the upper floors mean the wedding party can stay over and wake up on site the next morning.
How We Plan Your Evening at The Highfield House
Because the house has a mix of room sizes rather than one big function suite, the layout of the evening party is something we work out with you and the venue team well in advance, depending on your final numbers. Our all-white DJ booth is compact and tidy, which suits a characterful house, and uplighting brings out the Tudor-style detailing once the sun sets. For a wedding of this kind, a Highfield House wedding DJ needs to read the room and adapt the music to a close, sociable crowd. We confirm finish times, sound levels and whether cold spark fountains are allowed with the venue before the day, so everything is agreed long before your first dance.
