E&J - August Wedding

Alysha helped to curate the perfect wedding for us, nothing was too big an ask! She kept in touch with us consistently and replied to any queries promptly.

We were very kindly looked after the evening before with one of the night before packages - the food and drinks were served on time and were plentiful. We were also grateful to be given exclusive use of William De Percy as our guests definitely descended and took over the venue! The night was stress free and everyone’s dietary requirements were met without any hassle.

All catering is provided in house but we were able to make changes to suit our vision - the wedding breakfast and evening food for the big day were incredible!
We took full advantage of the upgraded drinks package and the staff created the most beautiful cocktail hour for us and our guests, we chose to serve out of the van on the terrace and our guests commented on how perfect the set up was.

All in, we had a great weekend and it truly was down to Alysha’s organisation beforehand. A special mention to both Tia and Ben who worked tirelessly on the day and made sure everything ran smoothly - even ahead of schedule!

Beautiful and detail oriented

The venue itself is stunning! And the staff are absolutely amazing. They made us feel calm, moved everything along as it should and made sure we were never without drinks or food. Nothing was an issue. Amazing. I hope I return here as a guest one day. 💕

Highly recommend Le Petit Château to any couple looking for a beautiful wedding venue

From the moment we first viewed Le Petit Château to the day of our wedding, the whole experience was fantastic.

The venue itself is absolutely stunning. It has a real fairytale feel, with beautiful surroundings and so many lovely touches that made the day feel incredibly special. Our guests couldn't stop commenting on how amazing everything looked and how much they enjoyed the venue.

A huge thank you goes to Alysha Potts, who was brilliant throughout the entire planning process. She made everything so easy, took care of all the little details, and made sure everything we wanted was organised exactly as we'd hoped. On the day itself, everything ran so smoothly, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment without worrying about a thing.

We honestly couldn't have asked for a better venue or a better team to help bring our day together. Thank you to everyone at Le Petit Château for making our wedding such an unforgettable experience.

We would highly recommend Le Petit Château to any couple looking for a beautiful wedding venue with an outstanding team.

The most perfect day

Our wedding at le petit chateau was perfect from start to finish! The venue was stunning when we viewed it in early spring and even more gorgeous on our wedding this week in full bloom! The staff were incredible, especially Zara and Ian who made the day feel so effortless and special. All of our guests said it was the nicest wedding they’d ever been to! The meadow and lake is so beautiful too, running through the wildflowers in your dress feels incredible highly recommend! Ending the day all curled in blankets around the fire pits with pots of tea was exactly what I’d imagined! We also got such a steal because we were booking quite short lead, we got a mid July wedding for great value! The venue are so chill about everything and our coordinator Jenna was such star, we are so grateful to her! Thankyou for the most perfect day!

Dream wedding

We had the most beautiful wedding at le petit chateau. The staff were so friendly and accommodating, nothing was too much hassle. We found it was affordable yet still luxurious, we got a wonderful package deal put together by the team and we couldn’t have asked for more, the attention to detail was amazing. Our wedding coordinator Alysha Potts was fabulous from start to finish, she kept us on track and organised throughout the planning process and no question was too big or small, Alysha was so lovely and we felt we were in great hands while planning our special day. Everything from the food to the setting and the efforts the team went to, to make our vision come to life, was perfect.

Absolutely amazing!! Loved every minute of our wedding. From start to finish everything was perfect and we can not thank all of our suppliers enough for making it so special. A big shoutout to Beth for the support with planning the wedding over the past 2 years - she is so responsive and helpful. Ian - master of ceremonies ensured everyone was happy and was such a lovely man. Zara - you made sure our day was exactly how we wanted it and we can’t thankyou enough. We can’t wait to return to again🫶🏼

Phenomenal venue - highly recommend

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with our wedding venue from start to finish.

Lauren, our coordinator, was amazing throughout the whole planning process. She kept us in the loop at every stage, made everything feel really straightforward, and was always so quick to respond to any questions we had. It really put us at ease knowing she clearly knew exactly what she was doing and nothing ever felt like too much trouble.

On the day itself everything ran so seamlessly. The staff were phenomenal – so attentive without ever being intrusive. We genuinely didn’t have to think about a thing all day, they just took care of everything and made sure we were always looked after. So many of our guests commented on how smooth the whole day was and how relaxed everything felt, which is exactly what you want.

A special mention has to go to Gary, our day-of compère. He was brilliant from start to finish – kept everything running on time, made sure guests knew what was happening, and looked after us constantly (always making sure we had a drink in hand and even remembering everyone’s names!). He brought such a fun energy to the day and everyone absolutely loved him.

The venue itself is also just stunning. We were lucky with the weather and it genuinely felt like we were abroad at times. The rooms were gorgeous and our guests were genuinely buzzing when they saw everything.

We’d highly recommend the venue to anyone. They made the whole experience feel so special, so smooth, and completely stress-free from beginning to end.

The Dream Experience

We honestly couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue than Le Petit Chateau. From the very beginning, the entire team were absolutely fabulous and made the whole process feel effortless.

A huge thank you to Lauren, our wedding coordinator, along with Tia and Chloe, our wedding manager, Peter our MC and Korey for constantly keeping us hydrated. Every single member of the team were patient, understanding, attentive and always willing to go above and beyond for us. Nothing was ever too much trouble. A special mention to Annie who went above and beyond with bookings through multiple changes.

The whole day ran so seamlessly which meant we could truly relax and enjoy every minute with our family and friends. We also high recommend staying in the apartment the night before - it made the morning of the wedding feel so much more relaxed and enjoyable.

LPC is not only a stunning venue, but it's also filled with the most incredible people. We are so grateful to the whole team for making our wedding day so special. Truly fab all around!!

The best day

My husband and I recently got married at Le Petit Chateau and it was the best day! Everything was just perfect.

We got engaged in July and went to view the venue in August, we knew immediately it was the place for us, it had everything we wanted, the rustic vibes, the meadow, the big mantel piece, it was everything we wanted!

I had a few visits to the venue after booking up, mostly to take my bridesmaids for a look but also to relive all of the little details from my first visit. The team were always very happy for us to look around.

Our finer details were locked in with our wedding coordinator Beth Hind; as our wedding approached, we caught up and she made sure we had everything we needed in place and passed across all of our plans to the operational team who would be supporting us on the day! there was a wedding the day before ours which was a worry that I wouldn’t be involved in the setting up on the day, but between Beth and the on the day team, everything was done for us; perfectly!

On the day, everything ran so smoothly, the team could not have done enough for us! We had some external suppliers come and set some things up and they were amazing!

The drinks were gorgeous, the food was really nice and the popcorn and sweet jars were really well received by our guests!

All round one of the best days of our lives, marrying my best friend in such a gorgeous setting!

The Newton-Fletchers at LPC

3 years in the making and the day couldn't have gone any better! Our wedding co-ordinator Alysha was there every step of the way in the lead up and was able to answer every question we had. The team at LPC made the day feel effortless meaning we could just kick back and soak everything up! Thank you so much for making the best day ever.

Best day of my life

Our wedding at Le Petit Chateau was truly the best day of our lives. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. The venue itself is stunning, full of charm, character, and beautifully kept spaces that made our day feel so special.

What really made the experience unforgettable was the staff. Every single person went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and nothing was ever too much trouble. They were incredibly accommodating, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our day perfect.

A special mention has to go to our wedding coordinator, Alysha. She was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process, organised, calm, and always one step ahead. She made everything feel effortless and allowed us to fully relax and enjoy every moment. She truly deserves a raise for how exceptional she is at what she does!

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to get married. If you’re considering Le Petit Chateau for your wedding, do it, it’s simply incredible.

A romantic and truly stunning hidden treasure

My partner and I chose this venue instantly. It was the first venue we went to, and from the outside, doesn’t look like much but it is beyond beautiful - a true hidden gem. No other venue compared.

The detail, the garden, the staff, the decor, the food… everything was perfect.
Alysha, our wedding coordinator was amazing. Incredibly supportive and there throughout the entire process. We cannot thank her enough.

Our wedding day was spectacular. It was everything i had dreamed of and more.
We will be coming back every year to celebrate our wedding in this beautiful place.

An incredible team who helped us create our perfect day

The team were incredibly helpful and kind and helped us create our perfect day.

Lauren our coordinator and Tia the on the day coordinator were first class and the staff were all really friendly and helpful. Annie who manages the accommodation was also incredibly helpful. 10 out of 10 across the board would highly recommend.
