Reviews for Lanwades Hall
The most magical day
We had the entire venue, including the beautiful rooms, for the whole weekend, and from start to finish we were made to feel like people, not a paycheck. Every interaction was warm, genuine, and full of care. Our questions, requests, and ideas were met not only with open minds but with enthusiasm, professionalism, and a sense of fun that made the whole journey a joy.
The team at Lanwades Hall is exceptional, but we have to give a special mention to Charlotte. She was nothing short of outstanding. Her industry knowledge guided us to our caterers, helped us with our venue setup, and ensured we had the perfect team of suppliers to make our vision a reality. Quite simply, without Charlotte, our wedding weekend wouldn’t have been as magical as it was. She kept everything running smoothly, but also gave us the time and space to truly take it all in. She made sure we were fed, watered, and cared for throughout the day the kind of thoughtful touches that mean the world when you’re swept up in the whirlwind of emotions.
The process from booking to the wedding day was seamless and easy, and when the big day arrived, everything fell into place effortlessly. Lanwades Hall itself is breathtaking, a venue that, even without decoration, speaks for itself. The gardens are like something out of a dream, with beauty that is simply impossible to capture in words. We chose to add our own personal touches and bring in our favourite vendors, but we could have done nothing at all and it still would have been stunning.
Ryan and I cannot recommend Lanwades Hall, Charlotte, and the whole team more highly. There are very few words that can truly express how grateful we are for everything they did for us. Thank you for giving us, for giving me the wedding of our dreams.
With love and gratitude,
Lisa and Ryan Lee

A perfect venue!
The main reason we chose Lanwades was that it feels stately and special but still super inviting and comfortable - it's big enough to give people room but not so big they get lost, and you really feel like the place is yours for the day. The inside needs very little dressing because it's already so tastefully decorated, the building and grounds are amazing backdrops for photos, and the gardens are gorgeous all year round – our wedding was at the end of March and the sunken garden had begun to bloom. Several of our guests commented on what a stunning venue Lanwades is!
Another draw for us was the accommodation. Our entire wedding party (including ourselves!) were travelling from different parts of the country, so it was lovely to be able to have nearest and dearest on site for the nights before and after the actual wedding day. The rooms are beautifully finished, and the comfort and luxury of the wedding suite itself was unmatched by any others we saw. The Cedar suite for grooms to get ready is a really thoughtful addition and was a much appreciated bonus for us!
The best thing about Lanwades is the people - everyone was warm and responsive from our first showaround to our wedding day almost two years later. Alex and Elvis are just the most welcoming and accommodating hosts, remembering details that meant we had a really personal experience. Charlotte is so positive to work with and was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process, and Tegan was really lovely and organised on the wedding weekend itself.
The team at Lanwades made our wedding planning easy and enjoyable and ensured that our big day went really smoothly, and we can't thank them enough!
The best day of our lives! ❤️
Our day was just perfect and it was all thanks so the wonderful venue and Lanwades team that made every detail perfect.
Thank you so much to Elvis, Alex and Tegan for making our day flow smoothly and beautifully. ❤️
Thank you Lanwades!
We loved that we could book the venue for two nights and have a big chunk of family and friends stay over too. On the night before the wedding, we booked a load of tables at The Kentford pub for a pre-wedding celebration which was fantastic. Plenty of hotels/Air B&Bs nearby for guests in and around Newmarket/Bury St. Edmunds!
We can't even begin to thank the staff at Lanwades enough, particularly Tegan and Elvis who were so lovely, approachable, flexible and professional, as well as always being prompt with responses and queries we had. Our day ran like clockwork and we really appreciated the little touches, like saving us some of our wedding cake to have when we got back to our room! There is such a warm and homely feel from all of the staff at Lanwades and it is the most beautiful venue - so many of our guests commented on the daffodils on the drive up!
Thank you so much Lanwades for making our wedding the perfect day. We are so grateful and feel so lucky to have had our wedding at your beautiful venue.

A dream venue!
The team there are fabulous, and a huge shoutout to Charlotte, our coordinator, who consistently went above and beyond through the whole process to ensure our day was completely seamless. Booking was so easy, and she held our hands throughout the entire process of organising our day. She even stepped in to announce us into our wedding breakfast, and put together a little video of our day when someone couldn’t make it.
The property itself is stunning - although it looks big, it feels so homely and welcoming. And the gardens are beautiful, providing the perfect places for photos as well.
I couldn’t recommend Lanwades Hall enough, and I hope more people get to experience the absolute joy of getting married there.
Our special day
On the day itself, they were amazing. Everything ran so smoothly that we could actually relax and enjoy every moment, even though we were both nervous. Tegan was a lifesaver, confirming table setting details when I’d forgotten to add my binder to the box, and Charlotte was such a calming presence, giving me comfort and advice just before I walked down the aisle when I was feeling stressed. Elvis and Alex were equally brilliant, quietly making sure every little detail was perfect so we didn’t have to worry about a thing.
Their attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care made our day feel effortless and joyful. We honestly couldn’t have done it without them. Thanks to this incredible team, our wedding was everything we hoped for—and more.
A dream wedding at Lanwades Hall
July 2025. It was a wonderful day. Lanwades is a beautiful venue, and we were lucky to be able to have our ceremony outside in the glorious sunken garden! The inside rooms are lovely too, and allowed people who wanted to chat more than dance to have a space to do so in the evening.
But the very best thing about Lanwades are the people: Charlotte was incredible in helping us organise the wedding, give her advice and answer all our questions very clearly and quickly, and she and Tegan were amazing on the day in making everything run smoothly, including helping with looking after our infant daughter!
Thank you thank you thank you for everything you did!
Amazing venue, amazing staff
The guest rooms are modern, comfy and clean. The communal spaces brought everyone together and created a lovely atmosphere before the big event. Lanwades have thought of the little details, providing essentials like coffee and an iron! The bridal sweet is gorgeous and spacious. The lighting is great for makeup and the full length mirror and dress hook are helpful touches.
All the staff were incredible from start to finish. They were always responsive via email, and patiently answered our many questions. On the wedding day itself they were so organised and lovely. Special shoutout to Charlotte & Tegan here! All of our vendors had nothing but praise for the staff on the day and it's thanks to them that everything ran so smoothly (calmly).
I would definitely recommend Lanwades hall for your big day!
Wedding venue with the WOW factor 😍💕
I wanted a venue that would allow us to have our Bridgerton style wedding, surrounded by sumptuous gardens, an abundance of flowers, and a gorgeous venue. Lanwades Hall truly has everything we were looking for.
We opted for a multi day wedding, which was a really fair cost for the entire package (including accommodation for our close guests over the 2 nights!).
Alex was warm and gave us a great tour, and we both felt that he really understood us when we were painting our vision for the day(s).
Charlotte & Tegan, wow, I have never met a more in sync, high energy and super organised team. You made the whole process stress free and ran the two days like the experts you are. From a ‘type A’ bride who struggled to relinquish control, I was able to switch off and simply be a bride which meant so much to me.
Everyone we met from the bar team to the gardening team were so lovely and made the whole event feel special.
I could write essays about our experience, but will finish by saying if you are looking for a venue and team, Lanwades offers something different from the rest and you won’t regret booking with them. X
