The most PERFECT day

We do not know where to begin. We genuinely cannot thank the team at Dodmoor House and our wedding coordinator, Kara enough for the most perfect wedding day on 16th November 2024. We had viewed many wedding venues prior to coming across Dodmoor House (quite a few in the Cotswolds) and none of them quite felt like Dodmoor House when we first visited.

The attention to detail and family feel you get is nothing short of amazing. Every single time we emailed or had any sort of worry, someone at Dodmoor was always there to get back to me. Their communication is genuinely perfect and the way in which the team communicates internally is something which we believe other venues lack. You genuinely feel like you are the only wedding the team is planning for!

One of the other amazing things about Dodmoor House is they let your wedding day be YOUR wedding day. Whether you want Caribbean food or your dog in attendance or a ferris wheel on their grounds you can do it! They really want you to have the most amazing day and that can be as unique as you want it! I also love that there is the option to stay in their Bridal Suite on the night of your wedding, it is a special touch and it is very special to wake up there the next morning (with the team serving you a delicious breakfast!). We had so many compliments from our guests saying how our magical/stunning the venue was and how attentive Dodmoor’s team were.

Kara, our wedding coordinator, thank you thank you thank you. You are the most organised, efficient and all round amazing human! You knew one of us struggled to let someone else take control/see out our vision but nothing was ever too much. Our entire day was perfect from start to finish. You do not even notice all what goes on in the background but I knew whatever the worry, Kara would have it covered in seconds!

We could genuinely go on forever about how excellent the venue and team are. There isn’t a single thing I could fault about our day or our entire wedding planning experience with Dodmoor House. So if you are thinking about visiting or booking Dodmoor House, DO IT! You definitely won’t regret it!

Thank you so much again, we are gutted it is all over and wish we could re-wind time to do it again! But I am sure we will be back for anniversaries!!

Perfect Wedding

Choosing Dodmoor for our wedding was the best decision we could’ve made. From the very first tour, we were blown away—not just by the breathtaking beauty of the venue, but by the warmth and professionalism of the entire staff.

What set them apart was how personal everything felt. They didn’t treat us like just another event. Our coordinator took the time to understand our vision, our priorities, and even the small sentimental touches we wanted to include. They offered creative suggestions, anticipated needs we didn’t even realize we had, and were calm and collected through every step of planning.

The day of the wedding? Absolute perfection. The team was behind the scenes orchestrating every detail—guests were guided seamlessly, the decor was flawlessly set up, and the timing of everything (from the ceremony to the sparkler exit) was smooth and stress-free. We truly didn’t have to worry about a single thing.

Our guests were raving about the ambiance, the incredible service, and how taken care of they felt. From keeping drinks full to ensuring the parents and grandparents had everything they needed, the staff didn’t miss a beat.

This venue is more than just a beautiful space—it’s a team of people who genuinely care about making your day unforgettable. We feel so lucky to have celebrated here and would recommend it 1000 times over.

Simply Unforgettable

The staff at Dodmoor house were professional from the offset. Promptly seeing us for a viewing and getting back to us quickly with queries. We were consistently offered spaces on there evening tours - which offered us an opportunity to meet new vendors and see ideas that we may not have come across before and importantly try lots of food from many vendors.

There was simply no pressure to buy into anything additional, but a willingness to help with ideas and providers from all staff. It was fantastic.

Chloe, our wedding coordinator, set us at ease from the get go. She ran over our plans comprehensively in the planning meeting and even when we changed things last minute via emails she was most accommodating.

My partner came back from our drop off, of quite a significant amount of items, incredibly reassured that everything would go how we wanted. Chloe not only helped unload everything, but took comprehensive notes on how/where & when we wanted everything set up.

Throughout the day, Chloe made sure we were all in the right place at the right times and ensured the different bits and bobs were set up at the right times and right places.

We honestly could not have had a more fantastic day. Having a look around the venue it truly speaks for itself - and I hope that this review reassures you that the staff are just as great as the venue.

PERFECT - look no further!

From a lovely initial viewing to 6 months later the most gorgeous, perfect day - Dodmoor House could not have done any more to make our day amazing. No pushy sales pitches at the initial viewing, the venue does the talking & staff are attentive, professional throughout & genuinely care about making your day run seamlessly. Super responsive to emails, their supplier recommendation lists are so helpful as we don’t live in the area, lots of things to hire and use from the venue- this is how wedding planning should be! Chloe and Louise were just a dream to have organising our day. We can’t thank the Dodmoor House team enough for how beautiful they made everything & we are so glad we found you!

Wonderful Venue!

We held our wedding at Dodmoor House, and it was everything we hoped for—charming, rustic, and effortlessly elegant. The venue is a beautifully restored set of barns with a perfect balance of countryside character and modern amenities. It felt cozy and intimate, yet spacious enough to host all our guests comfortably.

From the exposed beams to the warm wood tones and ambient string lights, every corner of the space felt like it belonged in a wedding magazine. The outdoor courtyard area was ideal for cocktail hour, and the main barn provided a stunning backdrop for both the dinner and dancing.

The staff was incredible—organised, responsive, and genuinely kind. They made the planning process so much easier and were always on hand to help with last-minute details on the day of. A Special mention of Marleen who was incredible and went above and beyond for the both of us.

Our guests are still raving about the atmosphere and how unique the space felt. If you’re dreaming of a romantic, countryside wedding with a rustic twist, I can’t recommend Dodmoor House enough. It truly set the stage for one of the best days of our lives.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you

We cannot thank the staff at Dodmoor House any more for helping us to bring to life our wedding visions. Nothing was ever too much and Beth-rai was nothing but attentive and patient with my often slow responses and general indecisiveness, she was also amazing at helping to calm my nerves right before I walked down the aisle.

The venue itself is simply beautiful and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to plan their wedding, whether it be for an intimate wedding (we only had roughly 30 guests) or something bigger.

The flexibility offered by Dodmoor truly enabled us to create our own special day in our own way and each and every member of staff we met, treat us and our wedding day like it was something magical, rather than ‘just another wedding’. My only sadness is that we’ve had our special day now and I wish we could do it all over again ❤️

The perfect wedding venue

If you are considering booking Dodmoor for your wedding day, stop looking and book it immediately!
We had the smallest wedding (us plus 3 guests) and so many venues were just not interested because it wasn’t a huge money maker for them.
Dodmoor on the other hand, literally could not do enough for us to ensure that our wedding day was everything we had ever imagined and more.
No caterers initially for a small wedding, no problem though….. you can use a private chef and that is exactly what we did and they welcomed him with open arms and worked so closely together to ensure that the day was perfect.

Louise and her team are truly all you could ever ask for and more and there were even some touching little surprises that came after the wedding day 💕
Louise was so accommodating and was more on top of the wedding planning than I was and just made everything seem so effortless.
The catesby barn looked absolutely sensational on our wedding day, Dodmoor and the team will always have a very special place in our hearts.

Thank you ♥️ Mr & Mrs Wright xxx

A wedding dream team!

My partner and I had specific requirements when hunting for a venue. We wanted an intimate space for private use which needed minimal decoration, rustic and most importantly at a reasonable price point (as we all know weddings get expensive). From initial contact through to post wedding wrap up - the whole team have been amazing!

A special shoutout to Chloe, our fabulous wedding co-ordinator. From our initial meet Chloe set all my concerns at ease. As a type B bride who didn’t want to revel in the tiny details - Chloe and team went above and beyond by supplying easels, card holders, wooden planks ect. Not only was she the driving force of the day but also a beacon of positivity throughout - no task was to big and made us feel like the most specialist guests on our big day!

Both on the day and post event, countless of our guests have commented about what a beautiful celebration we had - with some asking for our permission to host their eventual wedding their too (permission granted ;)). Both venue and recommended suppliers outdid themselves!

The best wedding venue there is

I don’t even know where to start! We had our wedding at Dodmoor House 15.05.25 and the day was perfect from start to finish.

From our first viewing right up to the morning after we felt so well looked after. The team know what they’re doing and are so friendly and welcoming whilst always remaining professional. They have thought of everything.

Our day was seamless. I didn’t have to worry about anything as the team were so on it and ensured everything flowed into the next. Even when our evening guests were delayed due to traffic on the M1 they worked with our suppliers to delay the start of our evening reception but no one noticed.

Our wedding coordinator Eleanor was amazing! She answered all of my little queries and helped with all of our plans/ideas. She was fantastic on the day and was the reason I was so calm throughout the whole day.

I cannot recommend Dodmoor House enough. If you’re looking for a relaxed barn wedding in beautiful surroundings then Dodmoor is the venue for you!

Thank you so much to the team at Dodmoor x

A magical venue with a team that truly cares

Dodmoor certainly has a magic about it that we felt from the moment we visited the grounds and stepped into the ceremony barn for the first time. The beautiful grounds (that inspired us to change our date from Autumn to spring due to all the beautiful flowers!) and the atmosphere of having the courtyard, and the mezzanine as additional spaces whilst keeping everyone close by was perfect for our guest numbers.

The communication throughout has been awesome, we never had to wait long to hear back from the team and they always took the time to answer every question - big or small. Including at the open evenings where Carolyn happily spent a long time going through my list of questions. We felt like everything was a possibility, and that they really cared to make our day special for us. You really can personalise it to however you want and they were so excited about all our ideas.

Our wedding coordinator, Chloe, was amazing. She was so lovely in making us feel supported, helping us tailor things to just how we wanted and for keeping things calm and flowing on the day. We had complete trust in her and the team to help us get it all right, whether that be from keeping us moving to the right places at the right time - to helping grab my phone so I could check off my list for sparkler guests! Nothing was too big or small for the team, they just wanted to help.

There were so many highlights about our wedding at Dodmoor House, but to name just a few: the aisle walk across the courtyard, the garden games on the lawn in the beautiful sunshine, the sparklers under the fairy light tree, my husband and I on the mezzanine to everyone below and the ‘Mr and Mrs’ mugs at breakfast the next morning.

An unforgettable experience!

Honestly we could not fault the Dodmoor team with how our wedding experience has been. From friendliness and being so welcoming on open days, to ease of booking, all the way to our amazing coordinator Kara and evening manager Katie (and the rest of the team!!) on the day which we’ve had countless compliments on from our guests. Dodmoor even helped speak to the registrars for us as originally it said they were unavailable for the ceremony time we wanted.

They spoke to our suppliers for us to coordinate everything, and we’re always quick and happy to respond to our constant badgering over email.

Of course, the location is also excellent and a really well-presented venue - another thing we were complimented on from our guests.

For anyone on the fence, Dodmoor House ticked every box for us on paper already but the support from everyone in the lead up and on the wedding day far exceeded our expectations. Thank you to everyone at Dodmoor!!

A magical wedding day at Dodmoor House

I don't even know where to start. It was all absolutely perfect for us. We wanted a winter wedding and Dodmoor House was the perfect venue for a winter wedding meaning we didn't have to make our guest stand outside for very long at all. We went to a number of the open evenings and had a private walk around and we were sold from the moment we saw it. It looks beautiful in the day but absolutely stunning at night with all of the twinkling lights. Throughout the planning process Chloe, our planner was absolutely amazing and I worry a bit and she answered all of my calls, emails and reassured me. Made me feel comfortable and was happy to change the plan whenever I needed it changing. Dodmoor you have got a gem of a planner there! The venue itself is so beautiful with a mix of old and modern. The setup was perfect for our 71 guests. The team were amazing and I honestly can't praise them enough. You have to go and view this venue. The day ran so smoothly with Chloe. Organising everything in the day and the night manager taking over in the evening. It honestly was perfect . Thank you so much dodmore! You made our day amazing and will forever have a special place in our heart ❤️

Amazing Venue!!

We have our special day here this December and it was honestly amazing. We booked in 2022 and Dodmoor were there throughout the whole planning process. Every detail was thoroughly thought about and nothing was missed. It is a beautiful venue and we loved the breakfast the following day. 10/10 venue with 10/10 staff. You will not be disappointed.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
