Magical West Country Wedding

The only way to describe this little hidden corner of the world: pure magic.

We’ll be forever connected to this unbelievably beautiful place we got to call home for the weekend - the perfect place to host the best party of our lives. From budgeting and planning with Mel and the team, to kicking back and enjoying our big day, every part of the experience was wrapped in West Country warmth and hospitality. Their amazing taste in food, drink, music, and everything in between meant that every little detail was thought of and taken care of. Everything we could ever have wanted on our wedding day — all in one place.

WOW. Wow, wow and wow again...

...we had a truly spectacular wedding experience thanks to Mel and Luke from Chew Valley Weddings. Yes, the site is exquisitely beautiful with some dreamy accommodation and room to roam wild, and yes, we were lucky to bag the last sunshiny weekend of the summer, but the time, care, generosity and constant willingness to go the extra mile from Mel and Luke made us feel like nothing was a problem. We felt completely 'held' and supported from start to finish.

From the outset, we were allowed to create an event that was solely our own, specific to us and our (large/unruly) families.. all of our nervous pre-event questions were answered with patience and detail and multiple site visits were happily arranged (often at short notice)... together, Mel and Luke helped us solve every little problem that presented itself, giving oodles of ideas from signage to catering and toilets to soundsystems. They created several bespoke areas for the wedding ceremony, games, drinks reception and afterparty - they relocated the entire dancefloor and PA system at our request, added an extra tipi, created an additional camping field, loaned us ladders, transport, hay bales, lights, kit and equipment - all of which went waaaaaay beyond the detail of our contracted agreement.

We started with a plan of how the weekend might go and ended up with something that exceeded anything this very happy bride and groom could EVER have imagined.

Mel and Luke - we are forever in your debt. THANK YOU. We (obviously) cannot recommend Chew Valley Weddings enough.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.

31 Jul
Concert

Valley Fest is the best-tasting music festival in the South West – and it’s got soul, too.

Set on an organic farm overlooking the beautiful Chew Valley Lake, we serve up three days of music, feasting and connection in the heart of the Somerset countryside.

Intimate and independent, Valley Fest is made for those who like their festivals wild in spirit but grounded in something real – land, community and a deep love for where (and how) we live.

We’re passionate about the South West – its soil, its flavours, its people – and we believe the best way to celebrate it all is by coming together. Sharing food. Dancing under the stars. Raising a glass to the good stuff.

Whether you’re a first-timer, a day-one Fester, a family, a foodie or someone seeking something a little more soulful – Valley Fest is your weekend home. You’ll find big names and local heroes, farm-fresh feasts and barefoot moments, all wrapped in a view that makes your shoulders drop.

Date: From 31/07/2026 to 02/08/2026 Schedule all day
Place: Chew Magna, Bristol , Bristol City, Bristol
