Beautiful and unique venue
Our dream venue in every way! We were looking for somewhere unique, relaxed, bright and flexible and that's exactly what we got (and more!). I think every guest commented on what a stunning and fun venue it was (we took advantage of having the steam train running for guests and used the outdoor space to have garden games and space hoppers). It was great to be able to tailor the day and venue to suit us exactly. The venue can be dressed as you like but we kept things simple to show off the beauty of the venue and surroundings. We had brilliant suppliers, some from suggestion of the venue and some we found ourselves.
Emma was wonderful to work with, really keen to make our dream day a reality and so accommodating when we had to rearrange twice due to the pandemic, I'm sure she must have been brilliant on the day too as it all came together like magic and we didn't have to do a thing!Our dream venue in every way!

The most epic venue!!
From start to finish Emma and the team at Bucks Railway were fantastic. The communication was fantastic, they were so helpful from start to finish. We had the whole day the day before to set up with Emma on hand too. In terms of the day itself, it was just amazing. The venue made such a good conversation starter for guests, the children loved it, there was loads of room and the photos were incredible. I can not recommend it enough!!!From start to finish Emma and the team at Bucks Railway were fantastic. The communication was fantastic, they were so helpful from start to finish.

A wonderful experience at a unique venue
We were looking for a unique venue for our wedding reception, and were delighted we found Buckinghamshire Railway Centre - which we fell in love with straight away.
All our guests enjoyed spending time during the day exploring the site and museum, and taking rides on the steam train. Emma and team were delightful to work with, from our first meeting to our big day - and were on hand throughout to help us and our guests with anything we needed.
If you want a venue that is unique, flexible, and will have all your guests (including children!) talking about the day many months after, we can't recommend this venue enough.We were looking for a unique venue for our wedding reception, and were delighted we found Buckinghamshire Railway Centre - which we fell in love with straight away.

An incredible venue and a perfect wedding
My partner and I had our wedding at the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre last weekend - from visiting the venue's wedding fair in December 2021 to waving goodbye on the evening of the wedding, we had a wonderful experience.
Emma, the functions manager, is an asset to the Railway Centre - she has so much patience with all manner of questions, and always has the answer/will work something out if not. She was on-site the day before to help take deliveries/advise us on set-up, and was also around on the wedding day to make sure things were running smoothly. We had a few hiccups (none of which were the fault of the venue!), and Emma was there to help when needed. We really appreciated her, and the wider team at the Centre. They also helped clear up whilst we were on the dancefloor - making our job so much quicker before heading off home!
As for the venue itself, it truly speaks for itself - it's absolutely stunning. Our guests loved it, and the steam train we hired for after the ceremony was such a special experience. If you're looking for a unique venue where you can have a lot of control over exactly how your day looks, I would recommend the Centre without hesitation. I can't wait to drop back in and relive our perfect day.My partner and I had our wedding at the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre last weekend - from visiting the venue's wedding fair in December 2021 to waving goodbye on the evening of the wedding, we had a wonderful experience.

Unique, timeless and fun
We held our wedding and reception here on a beautiful spring day in April 2023. We wanted a unique and fun venue that could host both wedding and reception and my husband loves steam trains so it ticked a lot of boxes! The ability to hire your own vendors enabled us to have a truly special day that was tailored to our tastes, including a BBQ caterer, churros cart and a band. We also paid to have a steam train running after the ceremony which all of our guests loved. I recommend the bride and groom head straight to the train after the ceremony and have a few minutes to yourselves. By the time we made the return journey all our guests were on the platform waving us in ready for the confetti toss and was a highlight of our day. Their chairs, benches and tables are perfect for the ceremony and reception, so no need to hire in your own and so many props you can make use of, such as milk churns and bicycles and vintage suitcases for floral arrangements. You really don't need to go overboard with the decorations as it's just beautiful as is and it would detract from the character! There are so many great locations for photos too so make sure you have a walk round with your photographer and scope them out as it's a big site. Emma the events coordinator was so supportive and responsive and offered lots of advice and also did a wonderful job of helping us clear away at the end of the night. We had a wonderful day and I would definitely recommend the venue over and over again!We held our wedding and reception here on a beautiful spring day in April 2023.

Perfect Setting
We held our wedding ceremony and reception at the centre. Emma was fantastic to deal with from start to finish. We loved this venue as it requires very little room dressing due to all the items already in the centre. we were also lucky enough to have a steam engine on the day as well for our guests to ride on after the ceremony . Would recommend this venue to anyone looking for something a little different on their special day

Amazing venue and lovely staff
We looked at a ot of venues but none really stood out until we visited the Buckinghamshire Railway Center. We had to move our wedding due to Covid and our wedding fell before all restrictions were lifted but Emma was absoultely brilliant in making sure that we could have the most amazing day with everything we had planned. Just a perfect venue, something different that we and our guests will never forget. Cannot recommend highly enough! Thank you to Emma and her team!We looked at a ot of venues but none really stood out until we visited the Buckinghamshire Railway Center.
