About New Street Market
New Street Market is an iconic, character-drenched wedding venue in the middle of Woodbridge – and, for one day, entirely yours. High ceilings, stained glass, painted timber and endless natural light. Couples choose us for a relaxed day full of character and colour, family-style feasting, attentive staff, and a place they can keep coming back to long after the wedding. Up to 100 guests, with the historic Shire Hall just a two-minute walk away.
In the middle of Woodbridge, Suffolk, New Street Market is an iconic, character-drenched café, kitchen and bar set in a converted carriage works – and, for one day, it’s entirely yours. Think high ceilings, stained glass, painted timber, and plenty of colour and personality already built in.
This is a wedding for couples who want a relaxed day full of character, great food and the people they love. Doors open to you and your suppliers from midday so the room can be dressed exactly as you like. From 3pm, guests gather in the bar and café for drinks and canapés, before moving through to the Backspace for a family-style feast, speeches and cake. As evening falls, the DJ takes over and the dancing begins, right up until carriages at 11pm.
Food is at the heart of everything we do. Our chefs create generous sharing feasts made to be passed down the table, with dishes such as spatchcock chicken with chilli, preserved lemon and honey, or spiced roasted aubergine with tahini and zhoug. Choose from three packages, all including a welcome drink, canapés, the feast, half a bottle of wine per guest, and tea and coffee.
New Street Market welcomes up to 100 guests, with 72 seated for dinner in the BackSpace, or more if you're open to using the other areas too. Your hire includes exclusive use of the venue, a dedicated team from set-up to clear-down, our fully licensed bar, a PA system with microphones, and all tables, chairs, tableware and glassware.
We’re not licensed for legal ceremonies, but the historic Shire Hall or nearby St Mary's church are just a two-minute walk away, giving you a beautiful stroll through the town with your guests before the celebrations begin.
Couples choose us for thoughtful, attentive staff and a place they can keep coming back to, long after the wedding, to relive the magic of their day.

Our Sustainability Commitments
At New Street Market, we believe the best celebrations are rooted in their community. Our kitchen works with local Suffolk producers, so your wedding feast is seasonal, full of flavour, and travels a short distance from field to table. Our home is a lovingly converted carriage works, a historic building given a new life rather than a new build. As a hub for local music, arts and free community events, we’re proud to put back into the town we love, and every wedding we host helps keep that going.
Commitment to LGBTQIA+ Couples
New Street Market is a place where everyone is welcome, and that includes every couple who celebrates with us. We love hosting weddings for LGBTQIA+ couples and work with each couple to plan a day that feels completely like them, with no assumptions and no traditions they don’t want. From your first enquiry to the last dance, our team is here to make sure you and your guests feel relaxed, respected and right at home.
