We’re based in Swillington, just outside Leeds, so these venues are our home patch. We’ve worked at every one of them, and because they’re local, Leeds couples get a couple of extra booth options that aren’t available everywhere.
Why a Leeds venue opens up more booth choices
Our staffed booths, the Glam Booth, Vintage Booth and AI Photo Booth, go anywhere we cover. But two of our self-service booths are limited to within 15 miles of our base in Swillington, Leeds, unless they’re booked alongside an EventsDJ wedding DJ:
- Party Pod: unstaffed, with colour and black and white built in, a choice of backdrops and prints. We drop it off during the day and it runs all day.
- Digital Pod: a self-service digital booth where guests share photos straight to their phones, with an online gallery and personalised digital borders. It’s set up before 2pm and collected near the end of the night. No prints.
Every venue below is in Leeds or close by, so all of these options are on the table.
City centre
The Queens Hotel, City Square
A Grade II listed Art Deco hotel faced in white Portland stone, overlooking City Square since 1937. It connects directly to Leeds station and has a large ballroom.
We’d bring the Glam Booth. Art Deco and black and white glamour are a perfect match.
Malmaison Leeds, Swinegate
A boutique hotel in the converted former Leeds City Tramways offices, with vaulted ceilings and bold interiors.
Bold rooms deserve a bold booth, so we’d suggest the AI Photo Booth, with AI backgrounds, artistic styles and face swap, plus instant prints.
Country houses
Oulton Hall, near Rothwell
A Grade II listed classical sandstone mansion begun in the late 18th century for the Blayds family and rebuilt after a fire in the 1850s. It was derelict by the 1980s and later restored as a hotel set in formal gardens.
Glam suits its grand rooms. Add a Party Pod for the drinks reception if you’d like photos from the moment guests arrive.
Wood Hall Hotel & Spa, near Wetherby
A Grade II listed mansion designed by John Carr around 1750, reached by a long private drive through about 100 acres of woodland near the River Wharfe.
Glam again for the evening, or the Vintage Booth if your styling leans more country than city.
Barns and character spaces
The Hovels at Harewood
Between Leeds and Harrogate, this Grade II listed stone building on the Harewood estate was originally built to house estate workers. Its old stonework and beams are joined to a modern glass and steel atrium.
The Vintage Booth is lovely here, and the Glam Booth works well in the atrium. It’s a venue that suits both.
The Old Barn at Esholt, near Baildon
A countryside barn roughly 200 years old that has been a wedding venue since 2009.
Vintage, every time. Warm oak and a 200-year-old barn just fit.
Relaxed and practical
Village Hotel Leeds North, Headingley
On Otley Road, with event spaces for weddings and an on-site leisure club with an indoor pool.
For a laid-back celebration, the Digital Pod is a great fit if your guests would rather have photos on their phones than prints.
Woodkirk Valley Country Club, Dewsbury
A golf and country club on Leeds Road, founded in 1981, with a wedding licence and outdoor space where marquees are allowed.
The Party Pod works well for a marquee celebration that runs from afternoon into evening. If you’d prefer a hosted booth, any of our staffed booths can be booked.
How Leeds couples tend to mix and match
Being local, we often see couples combine options. A few that work well:
- Party Pod by day, DJ by night. The Pod keeps guests busy through the drinks reception, and an EventsDJ wedding DJ takes over for the evening.
- Staffed booth for the evening. A 3-hour Glam or Vintage booth timed for the busiest part of the party, with extra time available if needed.
- DJ & Photo Booth package. Booking both together saves money, and couples on the package can upgrade to the Glam Booth.

FAQs
Is the Party Pod available outside Leeds?

How far ahead do Leeds couples book?
Most couples book 12 to 24 months ahead, so it’s worth checking availability as soon as your venue is confirmed.
