The first CLA London Branch event of 2023, with two guest speakers:

We will have a presentation from Ed Coke-Steel, Development Director at Cripps & Co, who for more than 20 years have been opening wedding venues throughout the UK, restoring beautiful old barns and walled gardens.

We will also be joined by Sir John Redwood MP, who is employed by hosts Charles Stanley as a global strategist. He will give a short talk about capital markets at 6.15pm prompt.


About Cripps & Co
Each venue is unique and has its own selling points, the majestic oak beams at The Tithe Barn on the Bolton Abbey Estate, the modern pavilion at Thorpe Garden on the Thorpe Estate and the imposing double front towers at Hazel Gap on the Welbeck Estate.

Each of the nine Cripps & Co venues hold more than 120 weddings per year, and individually bring in over 10,000 customers annually to these rural areas.

They will walk you through how Cripps & Co have been able to transform old buildings into a thriving wedding business, and provide guidance to those wishing to embark on a similar venture. If you would like to bring along your own plans or details of potential venues, members of the Cripps & Co team will be on hand to give you feedback.
