A Dream Come True

From the moment we turned into the driveway and saw the magnificent house, we knew that Braxted Park was where we wanted to get married. After being shown around and being blown away by this beautiful venue and stunning gardens, we wasted no time in booking our wedding date. In the lead up to the day we were so looked after by the incredible staff at Braxted Park but a special mention to Victoria who answered every question and accommodated my many visits back to the venue. From our food & wine tasting to our final planning meeting I was never in any doubt that the team had everything in hand; nothing was too much to ask for!
When the day arrived we were so relaxed because we knew that every detail was being taken care of and Caroline was so helpful. It was the most perfect day that we will never forget and we cannot thank the Braxted Park staff enough. The service on the day was incredible and all of our guests were so complimentary.
We are so grateful to have been able to celebrate our marriage at Braxted Park, it really was a dream come true.

Beautiful venue with exceptional staff

Braxted Park is not only a beautiful venue but the staff are amazing and made our wedding completely stress free. All the staff we came in contact with during the planning (Cyla and Sophie) and the actual wedding (Special thank you to Abbie and Den) have all been so helpful dealing with all our queries and making each stage simple and stress free! During the wedding the staff made sure that everyone was happy and comfortable, with the staff finding us to make sure we had a drink or food. Some of the staff even played with my 4 year old nephew to keep him amused! We have had so many compliments from our guests on the food, the service, the accommodation and how effective the team were (including from our photographers!). We are both so glad we picked Braxted Park for our venue as they really are experts at creating the perfect wedding for their couples, going over and above expectations. Thank you so much to the whole team at Braxted Park for making our day so special!

The most perfect say

I will be grateful every day for the rest of my life that we chose Braxted Park as our wedding venue. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous, and the gardens were so beautiful. The church on site is simply lovely and it was a real honour to be able to be married there.
The staff at Braxted were all fantastic - Hannah who planned the day with us, our coordinator on the day Sarah, and Den and the team of waiters that looked after us in the evening. So many people were so complimentary of the venue and staff. You were all superb, and you gave us the most perfect day, thank you so much!

Beautiful venue

Braxted Park was the first venue we visited and tried REALLY hard not to just book the first one we saw, but we couldn't help but fall in love with this venue and no other one quite compared!! We were so lucky to have great weather on our wedding day which meant we could really make use of the open space and beautiful grounds, and our guests just loved it!! The only downside is that there are not really many options for a wet weather plan. There is a manor house but you dont have access to this and only have The orangery, walled gardens/grounds and pavillion, which can be tricky if you're having a ceremony, drinks reception and main reception and need 3 separate indoor spaces. Nonetheless, we will always think of Braxted Park as the location for the best day of our lives!

It was awful

We went to the wedding and my husband is severely disabled . The paths were all pebbled it was a nightmare to push him around .It was awful.The bathroom was v v basic and the breakfast in the morning was not much choice . For charging £150.00/night for the service provided was a total rip off . There was no tel in the room to contact reception . This day and age that is a must . I would not recommend staying in the hotel to any disabled or old or unfit person .My who stayed in room 7 shares the same views. The previous night we stayed at Holiday Inn where the rooms were well equipped they had trollies to take luggage in and out of rooms had TV and tel in the room and we only paid £83.00/night good breakfast in the morning and we left feeling it was good experience but I am afraid your service in the hotel is total rip off

It was the perfect day!

Laurence and I would like to say a massive thank you to everyone at Braxted Park. We got married at your beautiful venue in September and it was the perfect day.
From the moment we first looked round and met Victoria we knew we were going to have the most magical wedding day and that’s exactly what we got. Every single member of staff from the lead up to on the day were so friendly and helpful.
Thank you so much to Janet who looked after us on the day. You were nonstop all day, making sure that everyone in attendance was looked after. Nothing was too much trouble and you really did make our day run so smoothly. We were so lucky to have you with us.
It really does make a difference when the venue you get married at treats your wedding like their own, Braxted Park is such an amazing place.

We had the most amazing day

How do you even begin to thank them!! Braxted Park was amazing from start to finish, the grounds are absolutely stunning, the people are so kind and helpful! Was lucky enough to deal with Victoria, Carol & Jonathan and they were THE BEST! All of our wedding guests commented on how lovely all of the staff were and how they hadn't been to a wedding like it! Nothing was too much trouble! We had the most amazing day all thanks to them and cannot praise them enough for everything they done! So organised, so calm - everything was PERFECT! I would recommend to EVERYONE! This is THE venue to book!! You won't regret it!
Thanks so much again Braxted! A day we will never forget

Absolutely amazing!

My sister got married here on 24th August and it was absolutely amazing!
Johnathan was brilliant and so helpful and all staff were lovely. The grounds are stunning and had a great flow for all of the different parts of the wedding.
We also stayed in the rooms at the venue which are lovely - breakfast was amazing in the morning.
A huge thank you for making the day such a memorable one (if I got married again, it would be here!)
