    Book this venue today!

    To any engaged couples who are considering having their wedding here, this is your sign to book this venue today!

    When we got engaged, it was the happiest day of my life! I couldn’t wait to set a date for our wedding! But when we started to look around venues, the cost of everything was such a shock, I began to wonder if we could ever even afford to get married.

    The Lawn changed all that. We booked a beautiful twilight wedding for a very affordable price in November 2025.

    I still remember going to The Lawn for my first look around. The driveway itself is very impressive! And the house is just beautiful. It has a wonderful, traditional feel to it.

    David showed me around and I instantly trusted him. He is incredibly professional and friendly. He put me at ease and I just knew he would do a good job.

    It’s a really big deal booking a wedding venue and putting your trust in someone like that. David and his team completely understood that and I was treated with nothing but respect from the moment I booked.

    One of the best things about working with David is the speed and helpfulness at which he replied to my (many!) emails in the lead up to the wedding. No question was too small or too silly. It really put my mind at rest and made the whole planning process much less stressful!

    The venue looks wonderful in the twilight setting - the lighting is perfect for this time of day. We also had many positive comments from our guests on the quality of the food.

    The Lawn hosts a lot of weddings and they are really good at what they do. But I was never made to feel like we were ‘just another wedding’. They know how special and important this event is and treated me accordingly.

    We will be forever grateful for the most wonderful wedding day and we cannot recommend or thank them enough.

    Wedding Venue of our Dreams

    From the moment we first visited The Lawn, we knew it was our venue. David and the team are so committed to making the day special to you, and so down to earth and easy to communicate with. They are flexible, supportive and helpful in creating whatever your unique vision is for your special day. The ease in which we booked and planned the day, the responsiveness to our emails, and ultimately how smooth and care free the day went. We honestly could not recommend them enough. The food and service were exceptional, and we still cannot believe we got everything we wanted from a Manor House aesthetic wedding within a totally reasonable budget! We had so many questions from guests on how we found the venue, and compliments to how enjoyable the day had been.

    The Lawn's reply:

    Hi Charlotte
    Great pics! We were over the moon that you and Andrew had such a fabulous day and thanks so much for the lovely review - it means a lot to us. Wishing you both a fantastic married life together and hopefully we'll see you back at one of your friend's weddings in the future ;-)

    Our wedding

    We got married on 8th August this year . We couldn’t recommend this venue enough . The Lawns were very professional from booking our wedding with them . To the tasting session and of course the day itself went off with out a hitch , staff very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us, no wedding planner needed the Lawns knew exactly what to do and how to do it .
    Our day was perfect everyone commented on how well our wedding went and we couldn’t thank David and the team at the lawns for making our day so special .

    Beautiful venue!

    The Lawn is an absolutely stunning venue. The grounds, the exterior of the building itself, and the interior are all beautiful and honestly took our breath away when we first saw it.

    The team are also amazing, I was a nervous bride before I got married and the team were so helpful with all my questions, not to mention how many guests were complimenting how smooth the wedding day went because of their amazing service. They really do everything they can to put you at ease from start to finish. Couldn’t recommend The Lawn enough!

    The Lawn's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words - it really means the world to the team here. Your wedding was a perfect example of how weddings don't have to be big to be beautiful! Very best wishes from us all X

    A perfect Wedding

    David is exceptionally attentive and the entire team both seen and unseen delivered everything to such a high standard, you would be foolish not to consider.

    Every detail was executed as we asked, our photographer and band found dealing with the staff at the lawn effortless meaning that by the time we arrived there were no questions left to answer.

    The bar staff were friendly throughout the evening with swift service throughout

    The food is truly restaurant quality and with our unique request it was delivered absolutely perfectly, our Vegan and Gluten Free guests were catered for without hesitation.

    There is simply no better venue. We had 100 for the breakfast and a further 20 join us in the evening.

    What more can I say! This place hosted the biggest bad best day of our lives and the entire Lawn team helped make it so!

    The Lawn's reply:

    Just spotted this one! Thank you so much Will - that means a great deal to us all. As I said to Elena, I think we all enjoyed your wedding as much as you and your guests - it was a truly awesome day and you and Elena were an absolute delight to work with from the the day you booked to the day you married. Huge congratulations to you both from all the team at The Lawn!

    Wedding 2025

    I would highly recommend the Lawn to anyone who is considering using this venue for their wedding or for any other special event they have coming up. The staff and management are very friendly and have a real warmth from the moment you meet them. They really go out their way to make the day as special for you as they can.

    The grounds itself are a sight to be hold, inside and outside. You can capture some beautiful pictures with family and friends, around the entire venue.

    The catering was lovely also, with staff making sure everything ran smoothly throughout. I had plenty of guests come to me with lots of greats things to say about the food. The range of food choices is also really good as it is accommodating to everyone including those with specific dietary choices and needs.

    I would definitely use the venue again. It’s a great place run by great people.

    The Lawn, Rochford – Our Perfect Wedding Venue

    We had our wedding at The Lawn in Rochford and we honestly can't recommend them highly enough. From the very beginning, they were more than just a venue – they became like our wedding planners, our toastmasters on the day, and our emotional support team all in one. Their help went far beyond what we ever expected, and their level of involvement was entirely led by us – they were there as much or as little as we needed.

    What stood out most was how personalised the whole experience felt. It didn’t feel like we were just another wedding on the books – it felt like our day, completely tailored to us. Every little detail was thought of, and nothing was too much trouble.

    On the day itself, I was running late getting ready, but at no point did anyone pressure me or my hair and makeup team to hurry up. Instead, they just quietly ensured everything was still running smoothly in the background. Their priority was always making sure we had the perfect day – and we really, really did.

    One of the most touching moments was just after we got married, when they allowed us to have a quiet drink alone together as a newly married couple before the meal. That little breather meant so much and showed just how thoughtful and experienced the team are.

    Our wedding wasn’t entirely traditional – we had a brass band, and a Christian Russian Orthodox wedding ceremony after the legal marriage – and The Lawn welcomed all of it with warmth and complete flexibility. Nothing phased them. They were so accommodating with every aspect of the day.

    David and the entire team were just incredible. I sent many long and detailed emails in the lead-up, and every single one was answered with care and attention. They made us feel heard, understood, and totally supported every step of the way.

    It’s a family-run venue and you can absolutely feel that. Their pride, passion, and attention to detail shine through in everything they do – from their amazing team to their recommended suppliers, all of whom were brilliant too.

    We’re honestly so sad we don’t get to keep liaising with them anymore! We are so deeply grateful to The Lawn for making our day so special. It was truly the perfect day, and that was because of them.

    Beautiful venue, incredible team, personalised service, very reasonably priced – what more could you ask for?

    From the bottom of our hearts – thank you to David and the team at The Lawn.

    Love,
    Charlotte & Joe xx

    Perfect Wedding Venue

    We had a really beautiful wedding day at The Lawn. The experienced team were very helpful with the planning and professional throughout, taking any potential stress out of the day so that we could relax and fully enjoy our special day. Everything went as planned, including the weather allowing us to get married outside in the very pretty gazebo (there was a great back-up plan in case of rain so we didn't have to worry!). Our 60 day guests enjoyed a three course meal which was of great quality; we had many compliments about the food and service, including the evening buffet for 110 guests. The Lawn is a fantastic setting for a wedding, coupled with great service, that we would thoroughly recommend.

    The Lawn's reply:

    Hi Sally
    We are over the moon that you and Dave had such a lovely day. It was truly a beautiful wedding and we are so grateful for your lovely review - it really makes our day. Wishing you both a wonderful married life together!
