Wedding 31st August 2024

My partner and I got married here on 31st August 2024 and cannot fault this venue, they go above and beyond from choosing the venue to the big day! We had a lot of requirements and the team met all of them, the staff were friendly and the service was 5 star, Sallieann & Kiera were amazing, the food was excellent and we could not have asked for a better day! We would definitely recommend!

The perfect stress free day!

The team at the Kings Chapel did an absolutely fantastic job from the first meeting and visit to the wedding day.
The venue itself is gorgeous and we fell in love with it immediately as we wanted something that felt intimate but still had different areas for the day to progress through.
A special thanks to Kiera who was our dedicated co-ordinator who was always available to talk through details in the lead up to the wedding and managed everything on the day so that we didn’t have to think about a single thing.
Everything on the day worked so well it was the most stress free experience so we could truly just relax and enjoy ourselves with our family and friends.
The evening team and security guards were also brilliant! Everyone was so lovely and professional at all times with the main goal of making the day great.
Even an unfortunate incident which led to some damage in the venue was handled so well, I had a little panic but Kiera and team calmed me immediately and couldn’t have dealt with the situation any better.
A HUGE thank you to the entire team it was an absolutely perfect day.

Amazing wedding at the Kings Arms Hotel!

Antony and I got married this past Saturday, June 15, 2024, at the Kings Arms Hotel. Our wedding planner, Lara, did an amazing job ensuring that every detail was executed to perfection, going above and beyond our expectations. I highly recommend having your wedding at the Kings Arms Hotel in Old Amersham! All of our guests were complimentary of the food, decorations, and the organization of the reception. The staff at the Kings Arms is exceptionally professional and caring, making us feel truly special.

Don't delay book your wedding here today!!!

Wow, where do we even begin? Our wedding day at The Kings Chapel was nothing short of magical! From the moment we stepped into this stunning and unique venue, we knew it was the perfect choice for our special day.

The beauty of The Kings Chapel is truly breath-taking, with its charming ambiance and picturesque surroundings. It provided the most romantic backdrop for our ceremony and celebration.

The staff, especially Kiera and Joe, were absolute superstars! Their professionalism, attention to detail, and warm personalities made us feel so well taken care of throughout the entire planning process and on the big day itself. We can't thank them enough for their incredible support and hard work.

Now, let's talk about the food! Our wedding breakfast was absolutely delicious, and we were impressed by how quickly and efficiently it was served. Every dish was hot, fresh, and bursting with flavour, leaving our guests raving about it long after the event.

If you're searching for a wedding venue that offers not only beauty but also exceptional service and accommodations for your guests, look no further than The Kings Chapel. Trust us, you won't be disappointed!

Thank you to the entire team at The Kings Chapel for making our wedding day truly unforgettable. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience.

Love from the Gaire's

If you are thinking of booking Kings Chapel for your wedding , absolutely do it!

If you are thinking of booking Kings Chapel for your wedding , absolutely do it! From start to finish the support, advice and help was incredible! We have formed such a bond with Kings and its charm and plan to visit annually to revisit our venue for dinner & drinks.

A special mention to Lara our wedding coordinator, when we met she put us at ease and nothing was ever too much trouble - a huge support on the build up and on the day. Queries or questions were always answered efficiently and we built a great relationship.

Every supplier we spoke too, couldn’t recommend Kings highly enough which is exactly what you want and everyone worked like one big team - it was seamless and gave a great vibe to our day.
The food was incredible, everyone commented on this and especially one vegan guest who said they had never been so catered for before at a wedding - amazing. We had canapés which were delicious and Kings kept a separate board for Bride & Groom which was a lovely touch, the 3 course meal everyone commented on how incredible the food was but also the service was top notch, ticking off every guest as they went round each table and lots of servers which made everything smooth. We also had the wood fire pizza which went down such a treat at the end but of the night - delicious! & the gin bar which was beautifully put together with tonics, garnish etc.
We also had a meal the night before which was sooooo good too, amazing top quality pub classics! We stayed at the Kings Arms the night before and our wedding day and made use of the late night bar too. It was so great to be able to spend breakfast with our wedding party too! These extra options were great to have.

We would recommend Kings to anyone.
Kings will always hold a special place in our hearts and we honestly had the best day! If we could do it again we would! Thank you!

Perfect venue for an intimate wedding

We got married at Kings Chapel in July 2022 and had the ceremony and the reception there. It was an amazing experience - perfect venue, wonderful staff who clearly enjoy what they do, and were supportive and unflappable. Food was amazing. It was fantastic having the hotel next to the chapel. It really was such a perfect day.

We had the best day!

Our wedding at the Kings Chapel could not have been more perfect. Sallieann and Kiera were absolutely wonderful to work with, and made the normally stressful process really enjoyable. The venue itself is gorgeous and the bespoke menu that was designed for us was amazing - all our guests keep telling us how much they loved the food. We also worked with some contractors affiliated with the venue who were also amazing. We feel very lucky to have worked with such an amazing team - the result was a day which was more memorable than we could have dreamed of. Thank you Sallieann and Kiera!!

Wonderful!

What can I say?

Our wedding took my breath away. There was not a second that the KC team were not working so so hard to make it run smoothly and look beautiful. Not a single hitch, everything looked unbelievable. The service was exceptional and the respect we were shown was off the scale. Everything from music to lighting, decoration to food to drinks to clearing away was amazing. We have no words. Our vision was met beyond our wildest dreams and when those doors opened I couldn't believe it was the same place that we viewed (although already beautiful). Just stunning. And that party. Perfection.

We had exceptional support over the year leading, especially as things got closer and we were especially needy. They were wonderful and we are so glad we were assigned Kiera as our planner. Kiera is so great at her job and we cannot thank her annd KC enough.

An absolute must !

Where do we begin? From the very start the whole team at KC went above and beyond to support us.

Our wonderful wedding coordinator Alexis was incredible. It felt like we were planning this special day with a friend. She was always there to help us and was extremely generous (especially with dog biscuits for our pup!) She made everything feel like a breeze and offered great advice and ideas. She had a great understanding of what we wanted and ensured it happened on the day. We cannot thank you enough for what you contributed to our perfect day!

We were always welcomed with such special treatment and generosity from the whole team at KC. They were always available to answer all our questions (and there were lots of them!). A huge shout out to the amazing late night bar staff and doormen who really looked after us and joined in with the fun!

I cannot thank you all enough for enabling us to have the most amazing day ever! We are so grateful to the entire team at KC. It is a day we will never forget and we are so pleased we got to share it with you!

August wedding

Beautiful location but…. They are very weird about use of the gardens even early in the evening in a summer wedding. They don’t make any of these rules clear and it’s far from flexible. Communication was often borderline rude.
The food was expensive and the bride (coeliac disease) was served cold roast potatoes clearly from someone else’s plate rather than the wedges which were meant to be gf (as on food tasting!) Food tasting was frankly a shambolic experience too and wine tasting included 2 wines- so not much to taste!
Food service was very late and none of the staff seemed to care. Ran out of champagne glasses so again the bride didn’t even have a drink! I really thought it was going to be better.
