The Perfect Venue for our Perfect Day!

After our wedding in August (2026), we could not recommend Hayne House enough to anyone looking for a wedding (or other events) venue. It was the only venue we viewed and we booked our date soon after, given we were so confident it was the perfect venue for us. The Orangery is beautiful with the natural light coming in, the cosy hunting lodge to get ready in, and the wonderful pavilion for outdoor ceremonies. Everyone at Hayne House was approachable, friendly and always there to help (no matter the silly questions we were asking!). Our family and friends couldn't be more praising of the venue, and we had such an amazing day that we will look back on very fondly. A special thanks to Fleur, Kerry and Amber who were so involved in helping make our dream day a reality x

The perfect wedding venue

I highly recommend Hayne House for your wedding venue. The venue is absolutely beautiful, the orangery is stunning for a wedding of any season and the team are super helpful, willing to cater to any of your needs. We had a summer wedding in July and we married outdoors where the venue really comes into its own. Huge thank you Amber & the Hayne House team for giving us the wedding of our dreams.

Beautiful venue and friendly staff

We loved Hayne House from the moment we saw it during a viewing. It’s really a blank canvas which allows you to tailor it to your own style and reasonable cost wise.

The gardens were beautiful and the orangery was perfect for an alfresco feeling to the wedding breakfast whilst still being protected from any wet weather. We also liked that the orangery provided a wet weather option for the ceremony, which was not in a dark indoor room like most venues, even on a cloudy day it fills with light.

The staff were really helpful, particularly our venue coordinator Amber, who answered all of our questions and helped the day run smoothly. It was also great to have accommodation on site and have breakfast with our friends and family the morning after the wedding.

Could not recommend this venue more!

The perfect day

From booking our wedding date a good few years ago to our actual day in August - we had such a wonderful experience.
We had a list of venues to view, Hayne House was the first on the list and it ticked every box, so we booked and never looked back. It’s spacious, bright, elegant and has space for both grooms and bridal party to get ready separately along with rooms for the night. You also get The Wedding Chaps and Scott Anderson Catering included.
Our day was perfect and the teams working at Hayne house are just brilliant. We had Ella on the day coordinating and she was absolutely amazing. Our guests have said it’s the best wedding they’ve been to and I just wish I could do it all again,
If you’re wondering which venue to choose, please consider Hayne House. Weddings can be really stressful but I genuinely had such a lovely experience planning everything and I felt so at ease knowing the team at Hayne House were always there!

Fairy tale came true!!!

We fell in love with this venue at first sight and everything we hoped for and needed was more than fulfilled. Ella was amazing and took the stress out of every step and we cannot begin to count the amount of guests that remarked about how amazing Hayne house was.

Just amazing

I cannot recommended Hayne House enough! They were brilliant from the moment we booked, staying in contact and making sure that we knew about all their events with plenty of options to visit the venue! But on the day- wow! They made sure everything was seamless and as a bride who loves a plan they made sure everything was effortless and I did not have to ask for a single thing as they were one step ahead always!

The most magical wedding!

From the moment we first visited Hayne House, we knew it was something special. Tucked away in the beautiful Kent countryside, it had the perfect mix of traditional charm and modern elegance. The whole venue is so thoughtfully laid out—it flows effortlessly and offers multiple stunning options for all weather conditions (which we ended up needing!).

We were lucky enough to have Ella as our coordinator, and she was incredible from start to finish. From the initial booking through to the countless queries, supplier coordination, and the day itself, Ella handled everything with such care and professionalism. Her attention to detail was impeccable—nothing was ever too much trouble, even when we threw in a very last-minute yum yum tower instead of a traditional cake! She brought our vision to life seamlessly.

Despite less-than-ideal weather, we still managed to have the outdoor ceremony we hoped for, thanks to the flexibility and dedication of the Hayne House team. The whole day was magical. The venue is stunning, the team are an absolute dream to work with, and we honestly couldn’t have imagined a better place to celebrate our wedding.

Stunning Summer Garden Wedding!

We were married at Hayne House in August 2024, it was one of only 2 venues we selected to view at relatively short notice (we decided to give ourselves only 6 months planning time and were lucky they had availability for our chosen weekend!) - Sam was the first person we met and so welcoming. She really helped us imagine, in the cold of winter, how our summer wedding could be. We absolutely fell in love with the orangery from seeing the photos, but the reality was even better. Our key criteria was a venue that felt like a summer garden party, and you really got a sense of the lovely grounds by being able to see out to them all around you, even from inside the venue.
Becky gave us some great guidance throughout the planning, and Ella and team made the day run very smoothly.
6 months later, our guests are still talking about the beautiful relaxing day - it was everything we imagined - and better!

Amazing in every way!

Hayne House is a beautiful wedding venue with a amazing team of staff! They supported us every step of the way and made sure everything ran smoothly on the day. They go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. I would especially recommend Hayne House if you have children as they are free to play the entire day! We had so many comments from guests about how beautiful the venue is and how amazing the staff are.
