Wonderful wedding at Orchardeigh on 14 May 2011We would like to thank all the staff at Orchardleigh for the most wonderful wedding on 14 May. We literally had the best day of our lives and couldn't fault a thing. Everything went so smoothly thanks to our Wedding Co-ordinator, Karl. All our guests loved the venue and grounds as much as we did, and the food in particular was magnificent.

4th June 2010We got married there and were lucky to have had the house for two nights. I can't recommend the venue and all the staff there more highly, including the wedding co-ordinator I had. We just loved it. It is a beautiful house but it is a very relaxed place and you really do feel like it is your home while you are there.

Location, Location ..........My husband & I got married August 2010 at the small St. Marys Church on the grounds to Orchardleigh and the House hosted our reception. I could not recommend Orchardleigh house enough we had an amazing day and the lodges are beautifull. One point I would make is be very patient with the wedding co-ordinators as they are VERY slow in replying to emails and messages, the end result is worth it though.

highley reccommended!Our wedding at Orchardleigh House was the most perfect day we could have ever imagined! Everyone felt so welcome in the house and we were so grateful at their willingness to work with us on the elements of our day. The setting was stunning and so many people commented on it. The food was DELICIOUS! everything from the canapes to the main meal and fresh breads for the cheeses. We couldn't have hoped for a kinder wedding coordinator than Sarah. Her attention to detail helped the day run so smoothly. We have recommended Orchardleigh to so many people.

Fantastic!We want to thank Orchardleigh and Eve so much for organising our wedding reception for us. We had such a fantastic time and understand the amount of hardwork that must of gone into organising everything for us. Also the food was amazing.

They've got it right!My friends will tell you I am impossible to please, but this place is faultless! Everything about it was my dream come true. Our coordinator Sarah was great! Her relaxed attitude and inability to get stressed was just what I needed from start to finish. My husband, my mum & dad and our best man all commented on what a differene it made having a person with such a calming influence, just when it was needed! The venue itself is stunning, set in the most amazing surroundings and you definately know that you're in a well loved family home, which was all ours for the day. Nothing starchy & clinical about it at all. We designed our own menu with Matt the chef, and the end result would have rivalled any top London restaurant. Perfect. The staff were so helpful and the owner a real charmer! For such a busy venue they've really got it right.
