day……. one cost……no hidden extras…
Let us know how we can tailor your ceremony around you
Just for you…
The Flint Room was created with love in mind. Each bespoke piece was chosen, cherished and bought with the sole purpose of making it the most unique venue in Norwich.
Once you set a date and time and have booked any relevant parties (registrar or humanist celebrant) we will secure your booking by requesting a completed booking form and a 50% deposit. Once booked with us we will support you in any way we can leading up to your special day. We are happy to advise you, suggest difference choices and alleviate any concerns you may have. We aim to be as flexible as possible to meet all your requirements to the best of our abilities. We only have one ceremony on any one day so it is literally first come first served on dates. We are not in the process of squeezing as many ceremonies into a day as possible; we have both experienced that and we will not compromise your day under any circumstances. We want each couple or customer to have the full magical experience of the Flint Room. So to avoid disappointment on your chosen dates please book early. No question is too small or silly, please feel free to email info@theflintroom.co.uk anytime.
HERE ARE OUR 3 TOP TIPS FOR YOU:
1. It is YOUR day so please do it YOUR way. You will never please everyone so please concentrate on the two of you; your guests love you and will understand.
2. Don’t worry if you don’t want to (or cannot afford) to invite hundreds of guests. Many couples are opting for smaller and more intimate ceremonies with just their nearest and dearest. We always say '“who would you take out for dinner and pay for?”
3. Enjoy the preparation; it doesn’t have to be stressful. Choose a venue, book your registrar/celebrant then send a ‘save the date’ to all your carefully selected guests. Once that is in place then you can relax and enjoy the process in your own sweet time.
We attract couples who are looking for something a little bit different from the norm. The main compliments we receive are that we have the most relaxed, chilled and magical atmosphere and how comfortable and cared for the guests are in the beautiful, quirky surroundings.
Our minimum hire is 3 hours which allows time for the guests to arrive and get settled, the couple to arrive and get settled, your ceremony, confetti down the aisle shots, drinks in our little bar, photographs and mingling with the guests to your own music. We are unlike any other venue as allow indoor confetti; this is purely because it makes the most magical photographs and videos equating to magical memories for our couples.
Our bar is slightly unusual and on the side of the couple and not out to make profit. If you choose the venue then we encourage you to start squirreling away prosecco, beers etc. each month and in no time you have plenty to bring in for the wedding day for you and your guests. Bringing your own stock of drinks saves you some £££££ plus we will also set up your bar, serve your guests the drinks and clear after post ceremony. No corkage fees charged either. You can even collect any leftover drinks a week later. It has proved incredibly successful and a really enjoyable and successful popular experience.
We can seat a maximum of 80 guests, comfortably, on our beautiful collection of chairs and sofas (no extra hire charges) and our bespoke decor and vintage memorabilia creates a splendidly diverse setting. The grounds will be available for you and your guests to enjoy with a drink whilst photographs are taken.
By popular demand from many of our couples, we are now providing longer hires. Couples have stated that they love the venue so much that they want to have their whole day there which includes their ceremony and reception. We have found that small intimate receptions are now more popular than ever due to being exactly what the couples want and also to reduce cost at the end of the day. This is only possible, however, dependant on the guests numbers; for example, as stated above, the venue seats a maximum of 80 guests for the ceremony however if you wanted an intimate reception afterwards we would suggest lower guest numbers i.e. 60 guests or less so maximum comfort could be achieved and guest comfort is not compromised by lack of space.
Couples have then arranged their own food to be brought in for their reception and have arranged their own music (live or recorded), we have had silent discos also which have proved very successful as some guests can dance and others can sit and chat comfortable with a drink.
Examples of food that couples have brought in are grazing tables (i.e. the lazy grazer), buffets (get your family and friends involved), canapes, fish and chips (i.e. Grosvenor Fish Bar), pizzas, pie and mash (Flaming Galahs’). We are not allowed food trucks/vehicles on the grounds however have had a BBQ marquee and marquee with pizza oven, just in case you are looking for ideas.
We want your wedding to be exactly what you two want and not be influenced by anyone else. So many couples get swept away and lose themselves and what they actually want in the process. We openly encourage ‘YOUR day, YOUR way’ and will endeavour to make it as personal and tailormade, for you both, as much as we possibly can.
For those wanting to keep the costs down as much as possible we offer a reduction in cost for off-peak days (see prices below).
**Please note** We take a break during the cold, winter months of November, December, January and February, each year, however are fully functioning and open for weddings from March to October.

Parking | The Flint Room is located in the heart of Norwich so there are many choices in the surrounding areas to park. The most popular parking option with our former guests has been John Lewis Multi-storey car park as is well signposted and only a 5 minute walk to the venue. There is also on road parking close by (2 - 3 hour spaces on Ber Street, Bracondale, Carrow Hill, City Road and Hall Road), Pay and display on the road side (just past the bus station) on Queen’s Road, several multi-story car parks; (NCP on St.Stephens roundabout and Chapelfield) within a 15-20 minute walk. Schools including Bignold are open up to public parking at weekends and school holidays. Parking is restricted directly outside The Flint Room however the bridal car, for example, would easily be able to stop outside to allow the bride to make her entrance or vintage bus/coach to drop off and collect your guests for example.
Toilets | Those folk in medieval times did not think to put a toilet in our former Church, however not to be deterred. We hire in a toilet for you and decorate in true Flint Room style. We have been complimented on our ‘Pimp My Loo” set-up multiple times and has been a fun talking point at all our weddings!
We have come across some amazing and talented people since we have opened and are more than happy to recommend. We would like to give a special thanks to all the photographers who have contributed to our website gallery.
