    Best wedding venue

    Our day was beyond what we dreamt it would be. The team worked so hard to ensure it all ran smoothly, and our guests were blown away with it all. A stunning venue, the best food they'd ever had at a wedding and just how smoothly everything went even with an health emergency with my Grandma. Having the webcam available also allowed those unable to attend could be there virtually from all over the world and my other Grandma, who lives in a dementia nursing home,had the most wonderful time celebrating with us too. We will never forget it, thank you from the bottom of our hearts x

    Absolutely Superb

    We cannot fault Cain Manor for their service, facilities and overall performance. We booked Cain Manor for our wedding reception in September, with the ceremony held in a church, and from the very first day we felt looked after. We were given lots of opportunities to build our day with the help of the team, the portal is definitely a good way of keeping on top of things and reminding you what you need to do! The communication is good and we never felt like there was ever going to be a problem that couldn't be worked out. Solutions were definitely found for all concerns we had!
    On the day itself, the service from Freya, Daisy and their team was outstanding, everyone felt looked after and there were no problems throughout the day, even able to make last minute changes to the table plan literally an hour before the wedding breakfast.
    I cannot fault this, and although it is highly unlikely we will get married again, we would not hesitate to use Cain Manor!

    Gorgeous venue and setting

    We had an unforgettably magical day at Cain Manor, the day flowed so seamlessly and we can’t thank the staff and suppliers enough.
    We received so many compliments about the food and the venue with one guest insisting that we had a celebrity wedding and others that it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. It is a perfect wedding venue and Harper are highly recommended.

    Wonderful From Day One

    From the first time viewing the venue right up to the final goodbyes the morning after, Cain Manor were amazing.
    Starting with Dean, he was a huge reason as to why we chose Cain Manor. He showed us around on the first viewing; asking us how we envisioned our day, painting a picture for us, and allowing us to see ourselves in the space.
    The team who helped us before the day (Megan and Ann) were very fast with responses and nothing was too much or forgotten about. Speaking to them and using the online planner was seamless I can't imagine planning a wedding without their help or the planner!
    On the day I can't explain how smoothly everything went, and if it didn't, I was unaware as they dealt with everything so professionally and smoothly. Everyone was wonderful, but a special mention must go to Freya, Jane, and Toby who were impeccable. They really made us feel like the only people in the world.
    The venue itself is beautiful, and the food is still being raved about.
    On the 1st of September, Cain Manor was the happiest place in the world and I want to thank the staff for being able to make that happen.

    The perfect day!!

    Cain Manor, thank you from the bottom of my heart for making my daughter and husband’s wedding day the most amazing day ever. Robyn & Joe got married on Friday 1st September and from the moment we arrived and were met by Freya, to the moment she and Jane said good bye to us the following morning, the whole event was beyond what we could have imagined.
    The waiting/service staff were impeccable, Toby our waiter couldn’t do enough for us, and the food was outstanding - one of the best meals I’ve had and many guests said the same. The bar staff and housekeeping staff were fabulous. I honestly can’t thank you enough. The team were there without intruding. Seamless!
    As for the venue and location…magical! We’ve had a day we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives and you all played a - BIG - part!
    Thank you to all the team at Cain Manor. Keep doing what you’re doing!!

    Beautiful venue with fantastic staff

    Where to begin…. Cain Manor is a fabulous, beautiful, characterful venue with a fantastic amazing team of staff.
    Our Wedding Day was perfect, their team even organized the weather with a lovely sunny spring day so we could have our ceremony outside!
    From the moment we first viewed the venue, with Danielle showing us around, we fell in love with it! And then going forward they continued to make us feel so welcome on each visit. The Harper Wedding Planner is a life-saver and along with the Wedding Planning Wednesdays, with Emy, Ashely & Maddie, and the online messaging system made the planning process was so smooth and stress-free!
    On the day itself, every single staff member was fantastic. We felt the whole day ran so effortlessly and that is credit to the Team.
    From when I arrived in the morning to the Prep Room to get ready in, to them getting Luke into the Stable Block, so they could move me to the Bridal Suite to finish getting ready, would not have gone so well without their coordination and help!
    The Food was so tasty from the tasting platter menu tasting to the plates dishes on the day. Every guest we have spoken with only had good things to say! The venue itself is so beautiful, so many guests loving the character of the house and the grounds!
    Bonnie, our doggy, loved the place as well! And it is a great dog-friendly venue!
    Special mention to Danielle, Freya, Eloise, Jane and actually everyone at Cain Manor and the wider Harper Staff Team for helping is have an UNFORGETABLE wedding day!
    We can’t thank the team enough and very highly recommend to anyone asking!

    Easily the best day of our lives so far

    We got married at Cain Manor in April 2023 and everything about the day was amazing, the staff were so helpful, friendly and extremely organised, the food was outstanding, the venue looked beautiful! All of the guests complimented the venue and said it was all amazing. I would definitely recommend Cain Manor to get married in. We couldn’t have asked for a better day!

    April 2023

    We got married April 23
    The whole experience from reserving the day to the final was 10/10.
    The staff were constantly on hand with any questions or concerns we might have. Their planning system was really helpful.
    On the day of our wedding the staff were outstanding!!
    All extremely friendly. Happy to be there and help.
    A lot of guest at our wedding were over the moon with the food. It was incredible and a lot of comment ‘best food they’ve had at a wedding’ and it really was.
    I honestly can’t recommend this venue enough. It had everything we wanted and want to relive the day again!!
    Thankyou all the team at harper weddings and Cain manor

    Mixed bag, but overall my wedding was magical

    Firstly, Cain Manor is STUNNING. it's exactly what i had in mind when I imagined my dream wedding. What's super important to remember though is that this isn't just a wedding venue, it's a sole use wedding experience ran by Bijou (now Harper) weddings. This has its pros and cons - the online planner for example is fantastic. However, you're not just committing to the beautiful venue, you're also committing to Harper's somewhat stringent T&C's. Their job is to make life easier, which in most instances they did, however i would advise others looking at this venue to do their homework and make sure they know exactly what they are agreeing to before they commit. There were a fair few "extra" costs i.e. £695 for a dance floor that we hadn't thought about, we'd assumed things like this to be included. Maybe we were a bit naive. We got our dance floor externally in the end for a much cheaper price but had to jump through a few bureaucratic hoops and do a bit of planning on our side to make this happen. if you're happy to pay the extra costs, your life will be easier, and also worth noting is that this venue is so beautiful that you may feel you don't need any extras. We had our florist do room dressing etc which worked out best all round.
    Another issue was use of their DJ, I understand from a insurance point of view this is easier all round, but yet again at a cost of £695 . The DJ we used was half this price, but again a bit of bureaucracy to jump through with his PAT testing etc. Spot the theme here.
    On the day the team were wonderful, the food exquisite and overall my wedding day was everything I needed it to be. Harper were prompt with my refund and are currently helping me to investigate a missing wedding gift. Everyone on the team has been lovely, especially when I had the odd frustration; they came across as very understanding. Maddie on the planning team and Freya and Antoine on the day all deserve a special mention - they were fantastic.
    Overall I'd say 4/5. Thank you Harper/Bijou.
