Our wedding

Fox and Hounds! From the moment we started planning, Bianca was incredibly helpful and attentive, making sure every detail was perfect. Nothing was too much to ask, and she truly went above and beyond.

The venue itself was stunning. and the food was exceptional. The overall atmosphere was warm a perfect for our celebration. We can't thank Bianca and the team at the Fox and Hounds enough for making our wedding day so special. We wholeheartedly recommend it as a wedding venue!

Small but Perfect

We chose the Fox & Hounds to host our small gathering as it was just the right size. We had a ceremony conducted by a local celebrant and a wedding breakfast with amazing food. Bianca was very helpful and flexible with how we wanted our day to go. Her team are very professional and the day went smoothly from start to finish.

A beautiful quiet wedding in Hertfordshire

They were amazing from start to finish! So helpful preparing the day and then throughout the day. They were very flexible and honestly we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue. I couldn’t recommend them enough- I would definitely hire them again for future parties.

BIANCA RIX
Owner

My name is Bianca and i have owned the Fox & Hounds for over 20 years with my husband/ chef James Rix.

We got married back in 2001 in a pub in Hampstead and had the best day - we like to re create that here at The Fox & Hounds - an informal, fun and amazing day built around food, family & friends like we enjoyed back then!

We dont have 'packages' as such as prefer to deal with each couple according to budget, tastes and their own ideas for their special day. I offer advice, contacts and support you with your planning from beginning to end.

Look forward to hearing from you if you like the look of our lovely unique venue.
