Best wedding ever

We knew we wanted to have our wedding reception at Deans Court before we were even engaged and from the moment we booked it two years ago, the whole process has been seamless. Georgia has been so helpful from start to finish and nothing was ever too much. She was always at the end of an email when needed and definitely went above and beyond. The staff on the actual day were amazing and all so friendly and welcoming to all of our guests! We didn't even have to lift a finger in the setting up process and the team at DC so accommodating with how I wanted the marquee styled.
We were so lucky with the weather on the day and the running of the day could not have been more perfect. Everything went exactly to plan and that was definitely down to all of the staff and Georgia. The following day they had kindly put all of our belongings in a pile to collect.
Thank you to all of the team at DC, we truly had the best day of our lives and so many of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to!

Perfection and More

We couldn’t have expected more from our wedding day. The planning, organisation and management on the day itself were to an extremely high level, the team did a fantastic job of making us and all our guests comfortable and relaxed for the whole day. The venue and grounds are exceptional and we’ve run out of superlatives to convey how happy we were with everything. If you need perfection, look no further than Deans Court!

Perfection and More

Our wedding experience at Deans Court couldn’t have gone better. Georgia and the team made the whole day beyond our expectations in terms of planning, organisation and execution, neither of us can really put into words how special the day was for us and our guests. The venue is perfectly laid out for a relaxing and fun atmosphere, there really is no room for improvement that I can think of. A huge thank you and well done for everything!

Amazing venue

Dean court was the most beautiful venue and everything we could have wished for. All the team but especially Georgia (who is incredible!) made sure the day ran smoothly from start to finish. I can not recommend them highly enough. Honestly there was no negatives or anything I would improve or change. 10/10 from the day we viewed all the way through to after the wedding.

We also stayed in all 3 cottages on site which were beautiful and felt like home from home for the weekend.

Everything we hoped for, and more!

From the moment we met with the Deans Court team, we immediately knew it was the right venue for our day. Georgia and team work tirelessly to make sure every last detail is perfect, and the result of that is a truly special and unique day for every single couple.

Through the wedding planning process, the communication was excellent, no question or ask too much, and on the day everything ran so smoothly thanks to Georgia and team (I think Georgia must be telepathic because she knew what we were thinking before we even spoke!). Our wedding party also commented on how relaxed we were all day, and that was only possible because we knew all our plans were in such safe hands.

The venue itself is beautiful, and such a hidden gem in the heart of Wimborne. Our guests were so impressed with the stunning marquee & picturesque grounds, which just added to the atmosphere of the day.

We really can't thank you enough and would recommend Deans Court a thousand times over - our only regret is we can't do it all over again! x

The most beautiful wedding weekend

We couldn't recommend the Deans Court team and their beautiful venue and accommodation enough. From the moment we looked around the venue we knew it would be the right place for us and from start to finish the team made sure that everything went smoothly. The grounds, marquee and accommodation are all stunning and beautifully maintained, and a perfect option if you want an "all in one place" wedding. We chose to get married outside close to the event marquee, and our family and friends stayed in the Gatehouse and two cottages which made for a relaxed wedding weekend. The team can't do enough for you, making everything so easy to plan and they really do care about all the small details that make your day unique.

Fantastic venue, perfect day

I can’t praise Deans Court and the team enough. From the start, we were put at ease and instantly knew our day was in good hands. Georgia made me feel that nothing was too much. They set up the venue beautifully and everything was organised perfectly. The team are so experienced and ran the day so smoothly. The venue speaks for itself with how gorgeous it is and the team running it compliment it beautifully. Thank you for such a perfect day!

Incredible venue - brilliant staff

I can't sing Deans Court and the staff's praises enough.

We got married on 08 July 2023 and everything went so smoothly without a hitch and that was all down to the wonderful team.

We dealt with Jonathan, Georgia and Catherine and they were all incredible. The communication is brilliant and the staff are so friendly and helpful.

Nothing seemed like too much for them in the run up to the day and on the day itself.

Being able to have the team set up the venue for you which leaves you to make any finishing touches the day before was so great!

I wish we could do it all again. The day was perfect and that was down to the wonderful Dean's Court. The organisation was second to none and we truly felt in safe hands.

Thank you thank you thank you!

Couldn't recommend Deans Court anymore

Wow, words can't describe Deans court, thank you for the most perfect day possible. The whole team superseded every single expectation we ever had.
The grounds are stunning, the marquee is beautiful, the photographers kept saying how many beautiful areas there were for them to photograph. Georgia and her team were magnificent, Georgia was on hand whenever we needed her, and she is simply a superstar! Thank you so much! We also used the accommodation onsite for our guests which was amazing, everyone loved it and I couldn't recommend it more, Catherine and her colleagues were on hand and cleaned the accomodation without us even noticing they were there.

I couldn't recommend Deans Court more to any couples looking for a venue!

A truly beautiful venue

Georgia and all the staff went above and beyond to ensure the best service possible. Nothing was too much trouble and each and every staff member was genuinely friendly and helpful. Communication was perfect. If we needed anything , all we had to do was call, text or email and there was a response. Nothing was too much for them and I just can’t big Deans Court up enough. The marquee was a perfect size even when it rained. And we had to hide inside and the grounds are absolutely stunning. Thankyou so so much Deans Court

Jonathan and the team were completely flexible to implement any of our ideas and weve had so many comments on how the day flowed so nicely, which is really down to them.

Perfect in every way

Jonathan and the team at Deans Court could not have been more helpful in ensuring we had the best wedding day possible. The venue itself is beautiful and the gardeners do an amazing job of maintaining the grounds but it is the events team that made the difference to our day. Jonathan, Georgia, Kathryn and everyone else were knowledgeable, responsive and flexible. They were ready with advice but happy for us to steer the overall look and feel of the day that we wanted. In the days leading up to the big day the team were on hand to help decorate the marquee and our run through beforehand showed how organised everything is. It all left us feeling in safe hands and able to enjoy the time we had with each other and our loved ones.

Excellent wedding venue

We loved the location from the first time we saw it and it did not disappoint on the day. The outside space was amazing, both in the sun in the day, and with the lovely fairy lights and fire pit in the evening. Such a treasure to find in the middle of Wimborne which was also convenient for our guests to travel to and find accommodation nearby. We wanted a professional and stylish venue that was comfortable for over a 100 guests but also informal and friendly. The venue surpassed our expectations in every way - the staff were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for all our guests, the inside of the venue was laid out beautifully, and the food was excellent. Jonathan and his team are clearly very experienced and supported us brilliantly through all stages of the organisation of our celebrations, ensuring they adapted to accommodate our needs. We received so much positive feedback from our guests after the event about the venue, the fun they had at the barn dance and the quality of the food. A great big thank you to all the team for helping us have such a wonderful day.
