Laura Sent on 20/03/2025The most perfect wedding
Wow what can I say, Brinsop is an absolutely stunning wedding venue with heaps of character and so many options of places for the ceremony and to do things. We fell in love with it as soon as we saw it and knew it was where we wanted to get married.
Right from the start, the Brinsop team were so helpful and accommodating. From giving an virtual tour then showing us around in person, Issy and the team were fantastic right the way through. Nothing was a hassle, no request too difficult and they were incredibly professional and responsive throughout the whole process.
We loved that Brinsop is an exclusive venue with accommodation on site so we could stay with the bridal party and our immediate family. All the rooms are unique and have so much character and it's fun exploring the whole place. You feel like you are in the middle of nowhere, in nature with swans, ducks and birds all around.
Throughout our planning process, Issy and the team helped us every step of the way, being incredibly flexible in managing our requests and really trying to create our vision. They even got their team to make a giant jenga that we could use on the day! They helped to create the most perfect bespoke wedding breakfast and canapes menu, and seemed so positive and excited to be part of our special day and experience.
Arriving at the venue, Issy and the team were ready and had everything prepared and ready to go. It made the process so smooth for us and meant we could really enjoy the day without any stress. Issy coordinated perfectly with all of our vendors and it really felt like she and the whole team were so happy for us and wanted to be part of our day which was amazing. Our guests commented on how friendly and responsive all the staff were and it really made the experience extra special.
I wouldn't change anything about the day and it was perfect. I would absolutely recommend Brinsop as a wedding venue and all the staff who are really invested in helping deliver your vision. Thank you so so much to the whole team for making this a day that we will look back on for many years to come with amazing memories. -

We had our wedding at Brinsop on 2nd October and it was an incredible day! First off, every part of the venue is so beautiful, and we really made the most of it, having our ceremony in the woodland, drinks reception on the lawn, dinner in the Banqueting Hall and evening reception in the Knot Barn - Brinsop is so flexible in giving you many options for every part of the day. So many of our guests commented on how stunning the house and grounds are. The woodland is a real highlight if you're looking for an outdoor ceremony space, we didn't see anything like it in other venues we looked at - it feels so secluded and yet it's just steps away from the house.
Amy (the head chef) and her team were super helpful and accommodating; we requested a fully vegetarian menu and they were very happy to oblige, and all the food on the day was delicious, incuding the canapes. It was also really lovely to have the recovery breakfast the following morning to catch up with our overnight guests :)
Nina was our coordinator and she was absolutely fantastic - even though we were running slightly behind schedule on the day, she was a super calm and reassuring presence throughout, and never made us feel rushed. She even helped our guests surprise us after our meal by putting cans and a 'just married' sign on the golf buggy for our ride up to the Knot Barn! Prior to the day, she was always really quick to respond to emails and happy to chat on the phone whenever - even when she was on annual leave, she was quick to let us know that we could email and she would still get back to us while she was on holiday.
The only slight issue that we had was that it took longer than we expected to be assigned a dedicated coordinator, which meant that we didn't have our planning meeting until less than 2 months before our wedding day, and getting all our catering info sorted was more rushed than we would have liked. We did ask them a couple of times before our coordinator was assigned, so I'm not sure if this is their usual timeline or if there was some other reason for the delay. As I said, once we had Nina assigned she was great and quickly resolved all our questions etc, but the last couple of months before the day did end up being a little bit more stressful because of this.
Even having said this I would still absolutely recommend Brinsop - compared to similar venues it's great value for money, particularly considering how much character and versatility it offers. We're already looking forward to coming back to stay in Ivy or Wood Cottage (where we stayed the night before the wedding) for our anniversary, if not before!

Such an incredible time at Brinsop Court for our wedding. We had guests from multiple countries and all over the US fly in for the big day. The Brinsop team were incredible, attentive and made sure that everything was seamless so my wife and I could enjoy our weekend as much as possible.
Having the event for the whole weekend really was a difference maker as people got to settle in and explore.
The venue is stunning, it’s remote which is fine you just need to be prepared with taxis etc for anyone not staying onsite.
As with any wedding there are a lot of costs associated outside the initial fee for the rental, so just be prepared for this.
Overall, we reviewed 6 venues before choosing Brinsop and are really happy with our decision. -

Our perfect wedding day!
Wow, what a perfect day we had! It really went without a hitch and that was thanks to Nina and all the staff at Brinsop. The team worked seamlessly to ensure the day was as perfect as could be, and it really was! The wedding was booked over 2 years in advance and the staff were so accommodating with all my questions, planning and site visits, they couldn’t do more to support us. Special thanks to our coordinator Nina who was a delight to work with and a credit to Brinsop. Everyone that attended agreed at how beautiful the venue and grounds were, it was a wedding people won’t forget! 10/10 would recommend to anyone! -
