Fabulous venue and staff

Hannah & Marie were great, very open to ideas and did everything they could to make our sometimes crazy ideas work! The Old Big School Gallery was a perfect reception venue and the Orchard Suite was a perfect location for the Hog Roast and party. Our guests had a fantastic time!

Magical Wedding with Nostalgia

A massive thank you to Kelly and the rest of her events team for helping plan and coordinate a fabulous wedding. Venue was exceptional as always and being an Old Tonbridgian, we were also delighted to use the magnificent St Augustine chapel and Marcussen organ. The experience was magical and the guests were in awe. A wedding venue that exceeded its expectations!

We got married at Tonbridge School in April 2016. The events team were absolutely amazing and extremely helpful. All planning went very smoothly and communication between us and the events team was very good. The meeting we had with Marie Wallace was very positive and made us feel very comfortable about our choice of the venue. The day was absolutely great! The events team did great job with the parking and directing people to the right place. We couldn't choose better people to work with and a more beautiful place even if we wanted to. The grounds, gardens and stunning cherry tree in front of the school made our wedding pictures look absolutely fabulous! Thank you!!! Jana and James
