    Josh and Alisha Birkett

    WOW.

    What an extraordinary venue and an exceptional team, well worth it.

    Could not have had a better wedding weekend back in October, we will never forget it.
    Special thanks to Rob, Lydia and not forgetting Issy who carried my flowers and veil around the entire grounds for our photos! You guys were the best.

    Nothing was too big of an ask, every need was met without question!

    Our very own fairytale wedding

    Prior to picking Hampton Court Castle we had seen a number of venues but hadn't found the one. We decided to visit Hampton Court as a last minute option, but were amazed as we drove down towards the castle and throughout the visit as it was absolutely breathtaking.

    Lydia and Rob were fantastic throughout the planning stages. They were both very attentive to detail, responsive and flexible to meet our needs.
    During our whole wedding weekend both Lydia and Rob were so helpful to us and our guests. Nothing was ever too much. The food all weekend was fantastic.
    Our guests absolutely loved it and still tell us how beautiful the venue was.
    We had the most incredible and beautiful wedding at the castle.

    A dream wedding

    We had the most incredible wedding at the castle. Our wedding planner was Rob and he was brilliant with us from start to finish, responding extremely quickly to every little question we had (and there were a lot). The venue is incredible and a dream place for a wedding. The guests were all blown away and said they had never been to a wedding like it before. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish thanks to Rob and the team.

    Simply magical, like a fairytale

    This venue is simply magical, a dream come true for any couple wanting to get married somewhere beautiful and memorable. Worth every single penny and we would 100% recommend, if you can, book the Arkwright suit the the night before. Having that extra night of luxury allowed you to fully appreciate the castle and settle with your guests. The Pizzas the night before were “the best pizzas ever tasted” and the Bridal and Groom party could get to know each other better and created a super atmosphere. The rooms are simply amazing and immaculate. The bridal suite was bright and spacious (enough for plenty of ladies to get ready!) The grooms all stayed in rooms close to each other and although it was close enough for a quick dash to get something forgotten or put in the wrong room, the areas are separate enough for privacy of getting ready without fear of the other party seeing each other. They had loads of room too. You have a place for everyone during the reception, a place to sit, a space to dance, a bar to socialise. It’s a great size for maintaining an atmosphere. I am still waiting for official photos but there were so so many opportunities for fantastic photos - the garden, the stairs, the front of the castle, the court yard. I could write a book on how perfect this venue was and the staff were so experienced and helpful. Thank you to each and every one of them for making our special day, the best weekend! A wedding to remember.

    Hampton Court Castle's reply:

    Thanks so much for your kind words Ross. We just had the photos through from Dean and they are stunning! All of the team were so pleased to hear that the venue offered everything you needed and that you all had such a great time. It certainly is one to remember - Bridgerton, supercars AND a Tug-o-war!? Can't really forget that!

    Thanks again and we all wish you every happiness for the future.

    Magical wedding weekend

    We held our wedding at Hampton Court Castle over two days, September 1st & 2nd 2017.

    When we first decided to look for a suitable Castle venue, we visited Hampton Court Castle purely on a whim. Upon driving through the entrance, we were immediately captivated by the majesty of the Castle and the breathtaking natural beauty of the surrounding grounds and gardens. Once we viewed the interior facilities and met the staff, we were absolutely convinced that there was no other choice for our big day!

    Family and friends from around the world joined us on Friday for a complete medieval banquet in the atmospheric Coningsby Hall, catered entirely by the Hampton Court staff, which was absolutely amazing! The wedding festivities on the following day were everything we could have wished for. From the humanist ceremony in the beautiful, historic chapel, to the sumptuous reception in the garden and ballroom, and the photographs around the incredible grounds, we enjoyed a unique, magical wedding weekend.

    We cannot thank the team enough for their tireless efforts to help bring together this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

    Dream come true

    Hampton Court Castle was my dream wedding venue as a child and being able to make the dream a reality was an incredible experience. The impeccable grounds and rooms formed the perfect weekend and we were delighted to be blessed with incredible weather – the courtyard was the perfect spot for the ceremony but knowing we could use the chapel (also beautiful) if the weather did not hold gave us a huge level of comfort. The staff on the day were incredibly attentive and the whole weekend was a seamless experience.

    Thank you for everything

    We just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help and care on our wedding day and the weeks leading up to it.

    We considered ourselves incredibly lucky just to get such an amazing venue, but the care and attention your team gave us was far beyond our expectations. From putting us in contact with some amazing suppliers (florist, photographer, cake maker) to the chef being so accommodating with such an amazing menu and all the staff who helped make the day proceed without a glitch. It was the most amazing and magical day and we can't thank you enough for making it so special and surpassing all our expectations!!

    Wish we could do it all again

    The wedding ran smoothly throughout and we were over the moon with the entire day. What an incredible venue, from the beautiful bedrooms to the wonderful ballroom for dinner and dancing.

    We originally wanted to get married outside in the stunning courtyard, however it poured with rain. Not that it mattered one bit as we’re so happy we ended up getting married in the gorgeous chapel. We have some wonderful photos from that room which we’ll cherish forever and it was the perfect size for everyone to have a good view. The venue is perfect for any weather, it didn’t matter it was raining as we had our reception drinks in the library, just off the main ballroom which has a hidden door in a bookcase which the guests entered through and were all thrilled about.

    We were really relaxed the whole day as all of the brilliant staff organised everything for us and all of our guests have been talking about what a great time they had ever since.

    The main ballroom is eye catching and perfect for the meal, speeches and dancing. Hampton Court also put on an extremely tasty hog roast in the evening, which I really recommend, I am still thinking about how tasty it was now. We would also recommend having the dinner for all of the guests staying at the Castle the evening before your big day as that was brilliant getting both of the families together beforehand. The food was divine and the compliments were flowing once again.

    What a fantastic, memorable venue, and if you get good weather the gardens are gorgeous, reception drinks on the lawn would be beautiful! The one thing we are really sad about is that it’s all over and we can’t do it all again!
