    Amazing day at Pelham House

    Very happy with our choice of Pelham house for our wedding venue, a lovely building with lots of space but still feels very intimate. The team were very helpful and the day ran smoothly, we really appreciated the little touches like leaving pizza in our room at the end of the night. The food was excellent and we've had lots of comments from guests to say how much they enjoyed it. Thank you very much to the entire team at Pelham House!

    Made our special day truly magical

    The experience we had at Pelham House truly helped make our day so special. At every single turn, they not only wowed us, but they consistently went above and beyond to ensure we were happy. The venue itself is outstandingly gorgeous and the Christmas decorations turned it into a true winter Wonderland. The food, whether it was the wedding breakfast, canapés or evening pizza, was truly gourmet and all our guests absolutely raved about it. Finally, the service we received was impeccable. They doted upon us throughout the day and even when we had a small hiccup with a couple guests not turning up, they immediately sprung into action to combine a table to ensure it all looked perfect. We cannot stress just how great Pelham is and would absolutely recommend anyone to have their wedding there.

    Dream Wedding

    We had our dream wedding at Pelham House, it has everything we could have hoped for and more, we want to say a massive THANK YOU to Dani & the team for an incredible day!

    For nearly 3 years (yes, a long time) Dani helped us with the planning of our wedding, she and the rest of the team are super responsive and friendly, we never had to chase them up.

    We absolutely fell in love with Pelham from the moment we first visited, we knew it was the venue for us. It is stunning inside and in a beautiful historic location. Everything is catered for in house, from the food to the drinks, coordination to accommodation, on top of this they are exclusively a wedding venue. No other venue in Sussex could offer this.

    All of our guests complimented the wedding, even saying it was the best they'd been too which was a HUGE compliment and reflection of Pelham House. The food was outstanding - that was the biggest feedback we had. They catered so well for all of the dietary requirements, our vegetarian guests were so happy with their meals. The wood fired pizzas also went down a treat in the evening!

    From start to finish it was the best day of our lives, we didn't want it to end. Pelham House will always have a very special place in our hearts. I cannot say enough that if you want the most incredible wedding day, Pelham House is your venue!

    Our perfect venue!

    The team at Pelham House are all experts in what they do. Our wedding day ran so smoothly and we always felt like we were in very safe hands. The drinks looked fabulous and the food was absolutely delicious. We had chosen lamb to be cooked for over 100 people and we were worried that might be a tall order - but so many of our guests said it was the best wedding food they have ever had and the lamb was cooked to perfection!

    The venue itself is stunning and the fab staff made it even better. The wait staff delivered food to every table perfectly in sync, which was so sleek and professional. Every team member exceeded expectations from the super friendly bar staff, to waiting staff making sure to deliver canapes to us on the day, to the lovely night porter who was available for friends to check in late. Having so many friends and family stay in the rooms at the venue made the event feel so special and all the rooms were of such a high standard and spotlessly clean.

    Our wedding manager India was amazing at responding to all of our last minute enquiries, special requests and room allocation swaps and was excellent throughout our whole wedding journey.

    We highly recommend this venue!

    The perfect venue in a quaint town!

    Pelham House is the venue to go for if you want a place that does it all! Special shout-out goes to our wedding event manager India Carr and the rest of the Pelham House team.

    Her and the rest of the team made us feel so taken care of, the planning of the wedding in 8 months (That's right!) was actually quite stress free!

    The team were always responsive in answering our abundance of questions and really made sure both the night before and the day itself went smoothly.

    Their flexible room booking policy really helped us make the decision for this venue as well. The ability to book only the number of rooms you needed on the night of the wedding and then share the link for guests to book themselves in relieved soo much stress and financial burden from us.

    The venue was everything we were looking for. A beautiful entrance hall, gorgeous ceremony room, open and secluded garden, modern chic bar and the breakfast room was otherworldly. They have a list of recommended suppliers which I would wholly recommend as it gave us the exact look we didn't even know what we were looking for.

    Even though our day had on and off rain, the day went smoother and was more perfect than we could have hoped it could be.

    I would unreservedly recommend others to book this venue if they are searching for a place to celebrate their day!

    Lizzie & Mark

    Our wedding was the best day of our lives, thanks to Danielle Turner who was the best event planner. She was so professional and helpful and became a big part of our day. Not only did she help so much with our planning, she was just such a calm and happy person to have around on your wedding day. We had singing waiters and she helped us coordinate all of it so everything ran smoothly. Everything is done on a planner form with the organisation and it works perfectly to ensure nothing is missed. We dropped all of our stuff first thing and we gave Dani instructions for everything and there was not one thing out of place. Pelham house is such a beautiful venue, we had our ceremony outside which was my dream for the day; and it was stunning. We really will never forget the help that Pelham gave us and all of Danielle’s help. The waiting staff were wonderful and our food was out of this world. We had the pizza oven around 9pm and that was incredible too!
    Thank you again Danielle Turner & Pelham House.

    The best day at the most amazing venue

    From the moment we first visited Pelham House, we fell in love with the venue. In the lead up to the wedding they were happy to answer any questions we had and were flexible with requests (allowing us to have an afternoon tea for the wedding breakfast). The day went smoothly with no hiccups. India (our wedding organiser) was amazing, she made sure everyone was in the right place at the right time and put us both at ease throughout. So many guests commented on how beautiful the venue was and how perfect the day was. We were lucky enough to get married on a sunny day and make use of the amazing gardens for our ceremony. All of the staff at Pelham house were very friendly and accommodating. We had the best day in the most amazing venue.
    We cannot recommend Pelham House enough.

    Once they have your money they don’t care

    We got married her on 1st July. Our guests made our day and it is a beautiful setting however our gifts and money were stolen at some point in the night and the venue simply don’t care they’ve made no effort to help us resolve this and don’t seem to care if it was a member of staff so please be careful if you’re getting married here.

    Wedding of our dreams!

    Thank you Pelham for giving us the most magical day. Everyone complimented how beautiful the house and grounds are and Pelham worked exceptionally hard on the day to ensure we got everything we wanted and our guests were looked after. During the planning stage they were very responsive and while they can appear strict with some of the planning, it helped keep the day right and everything ran like clockwork. Thank you so very much!

    Fantastic venue made a wonderful day

    Pelham House is a stunning venue and we absolutely made the right decision to go with it as the venue for our wedding. As they are purpose built for event hosting, the team is so well organised and having everything in one place from the ceremony, to the food, and accommodation was so convenient, especially for older family members and those with disabled accessibility needs. India, our event manager, was excellent, discussing our plans at lengths with us, from options of catering, known vendors, price tiers etc. She was also fantastic on the day, helping the running of events and coordination of vendors etc. The other staff were also so lovely and helpful, from the catering, serving, organising teams etc. and were always around to help and answer any questions/needs. The food and drink was all delicious and we were glad with went with Pelham’s own catering, which again made everything that much more straightforward. Having our ceremony in June, we opted for an outside ceremony which was beautiful, but knowing there was also an inside ceremony space allowed extra peace of mind. The overally layout, rooms, and outside space at the venue are stunning it’s like being in a country manor and you can’t believe you’re so close to the centre of Lewes. Thank you so much Pelham House team for making our day so special!
