Woodland summer wedding - a rare gem
Venue Service

By James Gill, on 06 Sep 2017Date of Wedding - 12 Aug 2017

How could you ask for more? A secluded woodland venue, yet within touching distance of Bristol city centre. Arnos Vale gives you three venues in one: it's up to you how you combine them. We had our ceremony outside in the tranquil, atmospheric (and licensed) 'Underwood Centre' – a rare treat. The 'Spielman Centre' decked in fairy lights and candles made for a gorgeous evening reception – not least because we didn't have to worry about transporting everyone to a separate venue. From first meeting to last dance, Kat and her team were friendly, efficient, and always enthusiastic. We were in the safest of hands.

Winter Wedding Breakfast at Arnos Vale
Venue Service

By Jenny and Dave Waters, on 19 Feb 2017Date of Wedding - 26 Nov 2016

We held our Wedding Breakfast at Arnos Vale and thoroughly enjoyed it. Our wedding coordinator Kat was excellent and we had loads of compliments about the immaculately kept and atmospheric venue. The food was great and the bar had just the right amount of variety including many local drinks companies. The Spielman Centre easily held our 70 evening do guests. Really great place to celebrate.

!st October - Woodland Wedding
Venue Service

By Jade Salter Hewitt, on 10 Oct 2016Date of Wedding - 01 Oct 2016

Couldn't recommend this venue more for a wedding in a woodland, in the centre of Bristol. The Underwood is such an intimate place to hold a ceremony with all your loved ones close by, and the Speilman centre for the reception is wonderful. Having the use of the cafe/bar area is great for people to have a chat and a break from dancing! Kat really made our day, and in the lead up, no query seemed to be too much. It was very reassuring to have Kat there on the day, and I'm sure she did alot more than we even realised. The whole experience was very relaxed, and we loved that we had scope to add as many personal touches as we could. If we could do it again, it would be here...

Hi Kat, Thank you so much for everything. All I've heard from our guests was that it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. Everyone fell in love with Arnos Vale and you made sure things ran smoothly. An unforgettable day, thank you. Megan and Robin x

Venue Service

By Megan and Robin, on 25 Aug 2016Date of Wedding - 12 Aug 2016

A magical day. Arnos Vale was the first and only venue we looked at and feel in love straight away. From the gorgeous ceremony at Underwood to a relaxed reception (plus pizza van) at Spielmen, everything went without a hitch. Kat, the co-coordinator, was endlessly helpful and made sure that the day went without a hitch. All we've heard from our guests was that it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. We couldn't be happier with our big day.

We would highly recommend Arnos Vale as a wedding venue! Thanks so much all!

Alex and Sarah's wedding
Venue Service

By Alex and Sarah, on 13 Jul 2016Date of Wedding - 06 Jul 2016

We loved the unique venue of The Underwood Centre. As we only had close family attending it was the perfect setting for us. Even our photographer and family member who had been to 60 weddings said it was the best wedding he had been to. We wanted something that was informal, unique and relaxing and The Underwood definitely didn't disappoint.

MAGICAL
Venue Service

By NOREEN AND PHIL, on 27 Jun 2016

If you are looking for somewhere a little bit different in a beautiful natural rustic setting bathed in the dappled sunshine coming through the trees and filled with bird song then look no further. Tranquil, relaxing calming not words usually associated with wedding venues but so true of the Underwood Centre at Arnos Vale. Kat the wedding co-ordinator was highly professional , caring ,calm and reassuring as were all the staff that we had dealings with at Arnos Vale .We were kept informed at all stages of the planning and made to feel that the whole aim of the team was to make our day as special and relaxed as possible. Thank you Kat and Shane it was a truly magical day.

Woodland Wedding
Venue Service

By Hiba, on 21 May 2016

I had an outdoor woodland wedding in the underwood centre. It was a beautiful and quiet location for a unique rustic wedding. It really doesn't need much decoration as its already a natural, beautiful venue. Kat the wedding co-ordinator was organised and everything went to plan! The photos were stunning, all the guests commented on how lovely the venue was and toasting marshmallows on the fire pit was amazing!

An amazing day
Venue Service

By Charlotte Britton-Stevens, on 18 Apr 2016

We had the ceremony in the Spielman building, the wedding breakfast in the Anglican Chapel and then the disco back in the Spielman. Kat, the co-ordinator was so helpful and was always there to ask questions or run an idea past her. She helped set up the day before and nothing was too much hassle. The venues themselves were so beautiful, we kept decoration minimal to make perfect use of the surroundings. We had so many compliments about the venue, the food and the service. Highly recommended!

Celebrate the Love
Venue Service

By Y & I, on 04 Feb 2016

We just wanted to say a very BIG thank you. The day was very special and different and just as we wanted with good weather too.. Kat, you must have connections in higher places! Thanks to all for helping us 'pull it off'. (Civil Partnership, 30th Jan 2016)
