Also on the first floor are changing suites for the wedding parties for the morning of your wedding. Wedding changing facilities are available from 8 am and also our first floor lounge is available from 12 noon.

Relax, sip champagne, and prepare for your walk down the aisle in a space created for unforgettable moments.
The Copper Room
The recently renovated Copper Room features a breathtaking vaulted ceiling and eye-catching chandeliers.
With seating for up to 130 guests, it provides an ideal setting for both a modern yet timeless wedding breakfast and evening reception.
Located on the ground floor of the main house, it includes its own copper topped private bar and cloakroom.
The décor is elegantly neutral, showcasing exposed brick, wooden floors, and beautiful oak beams, all offering a versatile space ready to be personalised for your special day!
The Marquee
Hidden behind the beautiful Georgian house lies our stunning all season’s marquee.
This large marquee has seating for up to 140 guests for a sit-down meal or 200 informally for an evening reception.
Air conditioned
Fully air conditioned with its own built-in newly renovated bar and private decking area. We also have a lower outside terrace for use on warmer days or simply for some fresh air.
The ivory draped, starlit ceiling with crystal chandeliers creates a magical feel for those special night-time occasions.
The Marquee can be accessed via the main house, making it ideal for winter weddings, or from our woodland gardens during those sunny summer days.
Ceremony Spaces
Our Lakeview Gazebo provides a truly picturesque setting for a dreamy outdoor wedding, available between April to September on days when the weather is fine.
If the British weather decides not to play along, we offer complete flexibility and can arrange for your celebrations to be moved inside under the vaulted ceiling of the Oak Room.

Venue Reviews

I really cannot recommend this venue enough. The grounds and rooms are beautiful and immaculate. We looked at many venues and this was by far the most beautiful and well maintained. We were blessed with beautiful weather so the outdoor ceremony was magical.
The food was outstanding so thank you Chef and your wonderful team. The marquee was perfect for the evening and we all danced the night away
It had been a very stressful few months building up to the day but from the moment we walked in and were greeted by Jo Jo I felt calm and relaxed. She is absolutely wonderful, professional, calm and so efficient and organised I immediately knew we could just relax and enjoy our morning getting ready. Thank you Jo Jo you were a massive part in making our day perfect. Big thanks to Sammy who again was wonderful, professional and very organised. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff and they all went out of their way to put you at ease and make sure you had a day to remember. I didn’t get everyone’s name but a big shout out to the ladies behind the bar in the evening you were brilliant and we had so many guests tell us how great and funny you were. Also the young lady behind the bar in the garden room again lovely professional and so helpful
The receptionists, maintenance staff and cleaners and all staff we met were so fantastic so thank you all. You are a credit to the venue

What can I say, these rooms are stunning, every effort has gone into making your stay elegant and super special. The rooms are spacious, quiet with fantastic shower and bath facilities, The beds are huge and comfy, our son couldn't quite believe the luxury of his room.
Location - Rural but only a short journey into Ongar high Street
Atmosphere - It's always the same, welcoming, warm and everyone cannot do enough for you.
Value - Its like everything in life, you get what you pay for, BUT when you look around the area at other hotels, Mulberry House is no more expensive, sometimes cheaper for a top tier stay.
Cleanliness - Is second to none, I have bumped into some of the girls who take care of this, they are bubbly and always happy to have a quick chat and a joke.

The venue itself is stunning, with beautiful surroundings that create the perfect backdrop for wedding photos. The grounds are fantastic, offering so many gorgeous spots for natural, romantic shots throughout the day.
The staff were brilliant — professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful, which made the whole experience run so smoothly. It’s such a wonderful place to work, and we can’t wait to be back again soon!
