De Vere Wokefield Estate Reviews (74) Write a review Thank you so much!! Venue Service By Kerri Monaghan, on 07 Aug 2019Date of Wedding - 03 Aug 2019 Damian and Tasha were excellent members of staff who helped us throughout our wedding journey. Tasha was an excellent contact leading up to the wedding to sort any issues we had. Damian was our contact on our wedding day, he was fantastic! He was quick and nothing was too much for him to make our day so special! Thank you so much!!Thank You Venue Service By Manuella Dakurah, on 07 Aug 2019Date of Wedding - 19 Jul 2019 Just wanted to say thank you for all your help with Dami & Steven wedding, and also to Liam and Helen on the day - please pass on my thanks to them. Looking forward to working together again in the future.Disappointed, understaffed and upset Venue Service By Emma Lewis, on 01 Aug 2019Date of Wedding - 29 Jun 2019 The 18 months run up we had a fair few wedding planners, however we has Tasha for the majority, she was lovely and made us feel as though our day would be what we had dreamt of! Unfortunately a couple of months beforehand it started to go pear shaped. We had a call to say that someone had exclusively booked out the venue the day before, so despite booking rooms to stay the night before, we couldn't stay there and were being moved out! We let it go and carried on with the plans, but we needn't had bothered as all plans, accessories and ideas never came together. The bar was never staffed and when it was they said they couldn't serve as they weren't bar trained, nothing we had discussed in the month running up was carried through as we were not made aware we would have an 'ops manager' running our wedding... Whom we had never met, never bothered to get to know our wedding and resulted in me spending my wedding day in tears. If I wrote everything out that was disappointing I would have to attach my 4 page complaint letter. To which an insulting offer of refund was made and were basically told if we didn't accept it they would withdraw the offer. Please please please look at other venues first, we will forever regret having our reception here and have now booked another one to have the day we really wanted. Make sure you get everything promised to you in writing as then staff go back and say they have never said it and make you to look like you are lying. Still to this day I get very tearful and the insulting refund has made this no better.BIG BIG BIG THANK YOU Venue Service By Jemma Davdra, on 07 Aug 2019Date of Wedding - 16 Jun 2019 Hope you are well. Apologies for the delay in emailing, just wanted to say a BIG BIG BIG thank you to yourself and all the De Vere staff.

Everyone had a fantastic time! The food was unreal, bar staff were very efficient. it was perfect on your part and I cannot thank you all enough I can’t wait for our anniversary to be able to visit again! Kindest regards VikkiSpecial day so wonderful. Venue Service By Matthew Napier, on 07 Aug 2019Date of Wedding - 05 May 2019 Natassia Robinson is a phenomenal representative of your business and services. She made every effort to ensure the everything was as easy and painless as possible from the moment we met her, throughout the entire planning process, the actual day and even after the event. As well as the beautiful venue, Natassia was an integral part of our decision to chose the Wokefield Estate. I cannot thank her enough for her support, advice and her hands on role in delivering what was a 99% perfect day. I only wish she could have stayed on longer to enjoy the party. She totally over delivered on our expectations. Also special thanks to Chef Peter and his team who were extremely welcoming and fully open and supportive of our food requirements. Our exotic canapes and certain individual's dietary requirements were catered for perfectly and without fuss. Also special thanks to the toast master Simon who's experience in keeping to a tight schedule was invaluable. My only small criticisms are:- 1. The service was a little slow in getting to all of the guests, but this may have been to our large increase in numbers. 2. The clear-up team were perhaps a little too keen and many guests ended up losing favours. We also lost 3 novelty hats which have sentimental value as they were hand made in Venezuela and then hand carried through several countries to the UK. This takes very little away from the occasion however and can't thank the whole team enough for making our special day so wonderfulGreat Wedding Coordinator Venue Service By Lisa OKane, on 11 May 2019Date of Wedding - 04 May 2019 Tasha Eden was absolutely amazing and we cannot fault her at all. We had a few coordinators before her but the last 12 months of having her made things a breeze. The food was excellent and the grounds made a perfect backdrop for pictures.Wonderful day Venue Service By Kim Wade, on 09 Nov 2018Date of Wedding - 20 Oct 2018 Natasha Eden who was our last coordinator was excellent she made us feel very reassured after all the initial mess ups and was very contactable and answered many of my random emails. She definitely knows her stuff and made us feel at ease. I feel really bad as I cannot remember the gentlemans name but the guy who ran our wedding on the day was amazing, he was very friendly and helpful he was still smiling at 1am and that we were the cleanest wedding. The guest relation manager (I believe Andrew) was amazing too as HMU breakfast got delivered an hour later than it was meant to, he delivered it himself and apologised for the delay. The guests even commented on the food and said how yummy it was so please pass on thanks to the Chef. The waiting staff were also very good.Excellent Service Venue Service By Bani & Simon Culshaw, on 17 Sep 2015Hi Cali Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special.
