Incredible Day
The staff were accommodating in every way, ensuring everyone was comfortable and catered for, even down to small requests from guest and giving extras for the kids in the evening.
I would highly recommend this venue, for the beautiful settings, incredible staff and sensational food. I would not have changed a single thing from our day and the staff ensured my vision was displayed.
Thank you again for a sensational day.
Best day ever!
Perfect Wedding Day
From the first visit to the end of our wedding day, all the staff were exceptional and so welcoming to ourselves and our guests.
We attended some planning meetings with Lisa and then we had our final meeting with Amy. Both Amy and Lisa were amazing and made us feel so relaxed and excited for the wedding day. Amy was our wedding day coordinator and everything went so smoothly and we received lots of compliments to say how fantastic she is. Thank you so much Gaynes Park we loved every minute of our day, the walled garden looked so pretty and the food was delicious; we’re hoping one of our friends gets married at the venue so we can come back.
Lastly, the coach house is gorgeous, our guests that stayed all loved their rooms and breakfast was so good! The honeymoon suite is very spacious and beautifully
decorated, we couldn’t fault a thing.
All our love, Mr and Mrs Michelogiannakis - we will remember our special day forever x
Stunning Venue!
From day one, our contact with the team was amazing. We never felt that any question was too little to ask and communication with their replies was prompt.
On the day itself, we felt that we could arrive knowing that everything was being taken care of and that there was no stress. Overall it was a very slick and professional operation and we cannot thank the staff who helped out on the day. Special mention goes to Lisa who helped us with the initial planning and Victoria who co-ordinated the day.
We loved Gaynes Park and we truly believe that we couldn’t have asked to a better day.
Can we do it all again? 😄

A DJ's Dream Venue for Epic Wedding Parties
The events team are incredibly professional, making supplier setup a breeze and ensuring perfect timing for those key evening moments. The Gather Barn also provides a brilliant chill-out space for guests who need a break from dancing.
Having hosted numerous celebrations here, I can confidently say Gaynes Park knows how to throw an incredible party. The combination of rustic charm and modern amenities makes it a perfect venue for couples wanting their evening reception to be truly memorable.

A beautiful venue for the perfect day
Yvonne, Lisa, and our event co-ordinator Amy, were very patient, highly supportive and incredibly understanding, and went out of their way to ensure that my wife and I had the perfect wedding and reception.
The venue itself is a beautiful and quiet location despite its proximity to the M25, the catering options were varied and absolutely delicious, and the on-site overnight accommodation at the Coach House was a wonderful way to spend the night and enjoy our first breakfast with our nearest and dearest.
We had around 100 guests in total, and we felt that this was enough given the size of the venue, although there was definitely room to comfortably invite another 50 or so guests.
We had the most perfect day at Gaynes Park, and we highly recommend it!
A beautiful venue with professional staff!
The catering team were brilliant - everyone commented on how delicious our wedding breakfast was, as well as our canapes! The service was quick and professional. The team were flexible with us choosing between menus and in creating the perfect alternatives to our chosen menu for dietary requirements and children. We also loved the wedding menu tasting event - this was run so well and really helped us to get excited about our wedding at Gaynes Park.
The whole team was very helpful before and on our wedding day but especially our co-ordinator Georgina who was exceptional. She was on hand to help in the morning, making sure we had everything we needed and even helped to get my finishing touches ready so my bridesmaids could wait outside to be surprised. She was there throughout the day in a very subtle way to ensure everything was running smoothly - truly outstanding help and professionalism.
We used their recommended supplier for our flowers - Violets and Velvets - and their Venue Stylist - Mediterranean Occasions - and both were exceptional in the service provided.
Our wedding day was perfect and the beauty of Gaynes Park really helped to ensure this - we can't thank the whole team enough!
Stunning Venue. Wonderful food that everyone is still talking about
