Our perfect day!

From our 1st contact to going home at the end of our Wedding Day was so perfect and professional, nothing was too much trouble. The food was outstanding, staff were friendly, location was amazing, organisation was brilliant-no anxiety or worry because everything was done without any fuss. We would definitely recommend Meadow & Marquee to anyone getting married.

Beautiful Wedding Venue

We recently attended a wedding at Meadow & Marquee, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! This beautiful venue nestled in the countryside offered the perfect backdrop for such a special day. The marquee was stunning, with its elegant setup and spacious design, creating the ideal reception.

The food was absolutely amazing—every dish was crafted to perfection. The entertainment was just as impressive, with a fantastic tribute band and disco that kept everyone dancing well into the night.

The team at Meadow & Marquee were both friendly and professional, ensuring every detail was taken care of seamlessly. Andrea, the host, went above and beyond to make the day run smoothly. Her exceptional helpfulness, warm demeanor, and attention to detail truly made the experience stress-free and enjoyable for everyone involved.

If you're looking for a picturesque countryside venue with outstanding service and an unforgettable atmosphere, Meadow & Marquee is the place to be. Thank you for an amazing day.

They listened to our vision

We can’t thank Andrea, Jess and the team enough for creating the most special day of our lives. They listened to our vision and helped us plan every detail. They were always available to help us answer our questions and offer suggestions. They were always on hand to help us and our guests with anything we needed.

The food was another highlight of our day. We had a mouth watering canapé reception, followed by a three course meal that was out of this world! We had so many guests raving about the food! We can honestly say that our wedding was the best day of our lives and we owe it all to meadow and marquee.
