Crondon Park is a historic wedding venue located in Stock, Essex's beautiful and peaceful countryside, offering exclusive use for grand affairs. This award-winning setting is a fine example of 17th-century architecture, with its Jacobean barn providing a truly unique atmosphere. Set in the picturesque surroundings of Stock Valley, this secluded property is the ideal space for a peaceful country wedding.

Facilities and Capacity

The Baronial Suite is the beating heart of Crondon Park, bursting with character, charm, and stunning staging areas. The Ryder Room is the designated civil ceremony space overlooking the estate's beautiful gardens. Outside, a gorgeous floral canopy provides a romantic amphitheatre-style setting for summer nuptials. The Baronial Hall is the main function room, embracing an authentic Tudor barn aesthetic. The room features a rare Rosewood floor beneath provocative light oak timber beams. The effect is one of dignified splendour that celebrates its centuries-old roots. From here, couples will have private access to a beautiful half-acre garden where they take those all-important photographs. A full-stocked bar opens out to the hall, with an external seating area available just beside. All three sites share themed lighting that can be adjusted to match the chosen colour scheme. To-be-weds will also have use of the Willows, a lockable room with toilet facilities attached to the Ryder Room. Thirty yards from the property awaits the get-ready suite, complete with a four-poster bed, lounge area, multiple mirrors, and prime lighting. A luxury selection of comfortable suites, with an outdoor patio and garden, are also available for guests to retire.

New to the venue we are able to offer for night before accommodation, located separately from the Baronial Hall. It can sleep up to 8 people, has 2 dressing tables and private patio, allowing the bridal party to prepare themselves prior to the ceremony. For accommodation on the night of the wedding, we have a Bridal Suite with private courtyard and parking, as well as 5 guest rooms within the main building.

A wedding venue that will go the extra mile for you!

In terms of the beauty of crondon park you can see for yourself...

But the care of the people that work there were unbelievable. Honestly, nothing is too much for them. You are paying a lot to get married (anywhere!) but somehow most people still feel embarrassed to ask lots of questions or things they don't understand. Crondon never made us feel bad for asking questions and clarifying things, asking for adjustments and just being reassuring.

They were so helpful on the lead up, everything was clear and on the day they were faultless. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone!

We had 103 guests so on the higher side and it was still plenty of space.

The food was also incredible!

The BEST wedding venue!

We couldn’t not send in a review after our magical day in October. Crondon Park is just phenomenal at what they do - creating beautiful and memorable wedding days. From the very first visit, we knew Crondon was the place for us. The rustic barn feel was everything we wanted, coupled with the fairy lights draped across the wooden beams and it was perfect!
The food is incredible and all of our guests (and us) felt so looked after from morning til night. We opted for the cocktail hour too which is ABSOLUTELY worth it. The team mixing and serving were just brilliant and so welcoming. Jo, our front of house manager was just fantastic. She genuinely went above and beyond to make sure everything ran so smoothly which is something I’ve heard from multiple guests since the day. She has such a calm and friendly nature and was just outstanding at organising the details of the day. Walking into the venue dressed for the first time was magical - it was everything we dreamed of.

Crondon Park is truly an 5 star wedding venue. From the stunning venue, outstanding service from all team and delicious food - I couldn’t recommend a place more to celebrate the most special day.

Crondon Park is truly a magical wedding venue, offering an exceptional experience from start to finish. The picturesque grounds and stunning Baronial Hall provide the perfect backdrop for both the ceremony and the reception. The venue is beautifully maintained, blending a rustic charm with modern touches that make every moment feel special. From the first moment we stepped in we knew that this was where we wanted to get married.

The food at Crondon Park is absolutely outstanding. The menu is crafted with care, offering a wide variety of dishes that are both beautifully presented and delicious. From the canapés to the wedding breakfast, every course exceeded expectations, with guests raving about the quality and flavor. The attention to detail in the catering was clear, ensuring that even dietary requirements were thoughtfully addressed.

What truly sets Crondon Park apart, though, is the exceptional service. Jo, our front-of-house manager, was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, she went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Her professionalism, warmth, and tireless support were invaluable throughout the day. Jo's calm demeanor and attention to every detail ensured that we could relax and enjoy the celebration without a single worry. The entire team was attentive and accommodating, making the day truly unforgettable.

In terms of planning, the support we received leading up to the wedding was fantastic. The team at Crondon Park was incredibly helpful and responsive, always ready to answer questions and offer guidance. They made the entire planning process stress-free, ensuring that every aspect of the day was meticulously organized.

Overall, Crondon Park is a top-tier wedding venue. With its beautiful setting, outstanding food, and remarkable service—especially Jo’s incredible dedication—it's a place that will make your special day everything you dreamed of and more. Highly recommended!
