    The most amazing venue!

    Where do i even begin.
    If you're considering having your wedding at Dodford Manor then DO IT!!!
    We have just celebrated our wedding at Dodford Manor and not only is the venue absolutely beautiful but the staff are just amazing and an absolute credit to Dodford.

    Special shoutout to Lydia who completely made our day. Although we provided the decorations, Lydia set them all up on the morning of our wedding and they looked even better than i could ever imagine. This took away so much stress, knowing i didn't have to worry about a thing! Lydia and all the staff at Dodford are always an email away for any questions/queries you may have, however stupid it may be! Nothing is too much with them and i can't thank them enough for helping make our day incredible!

    The no-corkage is absolutely amazing which allowed us to supply whatever drinks we wanted for the reception and wedding breakfast. They were all kept chilled by Dodford and were all prepared for us as soon as our ceremony had finished. Jenkinsons caterers are also absolutely fantastic and the food was amazing!!
    The facilities are perfect, nice big modern toilets - the bridal suite is another brilliant touch, which allowed some time away from guests if needed and just a nice special area to use.

    Everything went so smoothly and we couldn't fault a single thing!
    Highly recommend Dodford Manor completely. Thank you so much again ❤️

    A fantastic and beautiful venue with brilliant staff.

    We just want to say a huge THANK YOU for everything that all the staff did to make our day so amazing! 
    We had the best day and it could not have gone any better - even the weather was on our side! Everything you all did was fantastic, the day was so well organised, and all staff were so friendly and helpful. Throughout the planning stage, the team were always quick to get back to me with any question I had and we just felt so well looked after. From meeting them at the initial venue viewing to our wedding day, we could not fault anything. Thank you for making our day so perfect! 
    I would 10000% recommend this wedding venue for your special day, they are amazing.

    Amazing Venue and Staff

    We had the most incredible wedding day at Dodford Manor on 28th August 2025, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better venue. From start to finish, everything was flawless. The barns are absolutely beautiful and the setting created the perfect atmosphere for both our ceremony and party.

    A huge thank you to Lydia, who was absolutely amazing throughout the process and on the day itself. She was so organised, calm, and genuinely kind, making everything feel effortless for us. Knowing we were in such capable hands allowed us to fully relax and enjoy every moment especially as I usually like to be in control. The whole Dodford Manor team were fantastic, with incredible attention to detail when setting up all my DIY decor it was exactly how I pictured and imagined it.

    Our guests are still talking about how stunning the venue was and how amazing the food was. We’re sharing photos and videos to show just how magical the day truly was. Dodford Manor — and especially Lydia — helped create memories we’ll cherish forever, and we couldn’t recommend the venue highly enough

    Fantastic Venue!

    We got married at Dodford Manor in August and couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. The location is absolutely beautiful and we loved getting married in the rustic barns in the countryside with the sheep making a guest appearance! The event managers were fantastic from start to finish, with quick replies and easy communication throughout the planning process. Our wedding planner, Abbie, was brilliant — so lovely, approachable, and organised — and made sure everything ran smoothly on the day, allowing us to completely relax and enjoy ourselves. Everything came together seamlessly, and we are so grateful to all the staff at Dodford.

    Best day of our lives

    Where do we start?! Dodford Manor were accommodating and so open and clear with how the day will run. They made sure that everything ran so smoothly, which it did. Our wedding manager Abbie was absolutely fantastic. She was always available if we had any questions and she was so warm and welcoming, we felt so comfortable and calm when she was around before we walked down the aisle. The venue is amazing value for money and it really does sell itself, I don’t know why anyone would get married anywhere else!!! The caterers they worked with, Jenkinsons, were also absolutely incredible. So attentive all evening, professional and the service was fantastic. Dodford truly did give us the best day of our lives and we will remember it forever as a happy, fun, love filled day. No amount of words can be used to thank everyone involved for ensuring our day was perfect.

    Simply Amazing

    My now husband and I were recently married at Dodford Manor Barns. Throughout the entire process of planning the wedding, recommending vendors and touching base with how we are getting on, the team at Dodford Manor were excellent. We always felt confident that what we told them would happen and their regular calls/meetings really reinforced this. As for the day, a huge thank you to Lydia for being our Events Manager and coordinating the day without a hitch. We had the best time and you and your team ensured this.
    As for the venue itself - the place is simply stunning. Set back from the main road in a completely private location, it is spacious, cozy, intimate and romantic. You feel you are a world away from everything else and we found that the venue did not need too much in the way of additional decoration.
    Us and a few of the wedding party used the accomodation on site, which consists of the manor house. It was fantastic - clean, spacious, relaxing and literally a 30 second walk from where the festivities took place. Breakfast was great too.
    If you are getting married soon then we really think you should consider Dodford Manor Barns.

    Highly recommend!

    We recently got married at Dodford Manor Barn and can't recommend it highly enough. From our very first viewing the team could not have been more helpful and always replied promptly to any enquiries we had. On the day, Kayleigh and our event team went above and beyond to ensure the day went smoothly and we had everything we needed. We felt in really safe hands, and had an incredible day. The space is beautiful, the catering was fantastic, and we couldn't have asked for more!

    Perfect day

    The most amazing wedding day on 24/08/2025. It was everything we had hoped for and so much more. From the first viewing we knew this was the place for us, a few factors stood out like the exclusive use, no corkage fee and the stunning views. The wedding planning was made easy with event staff on the end of an email, recommended suppliers and the wedding planning document I found it all very stress free . The day run so smoothly with everything set up exactly how we wanted so we could relax and enjoy it. Jenkinsons catering were amazing and even going above and beyond for my little brothers birthday that day bringing out a cake and candles. We have had so many compliments on both the food and the venue from guests and are still on cloud nine wanting to do the day all over again.
    Couldn’t recommend this venue enough for your special day

    Dream come true

    We are so grateful to Dodford Manor, the whole team and specifically Kayleigh our wedding coordinator for our magical wedding!
    This team has been nothing but great answering any question and query in mere minutes. Sending us positive caring notes to celebrate how close the wedding is. Even if any issues did occur they fix them seamlessly and without any problem.
    All of our guests couldn’t believe how beautiful the venue was saying it was their favourite they have ever seen. We felt like we were treated like royalty and the entire experience was clash, elegant and stress free. Just to echo again our gratitude to the great staff! You all without exception were such a pleasure to work with!
