    Mr and Mrs Young 22.07.26

    Wow, I don’t even know where to start!
    We got married here in July 2026 and what a bloody day it was! The venue Is absolutely STUNNING. Everything about the day was so magical. We booked here for a last minute wedding and from start to finish Kylie was a super star. Nothing was ever too much and she made sure everything was just perfect on the day. The rest of the staff there also work so incredibly hard and were amazing. We had booked their food suppliers too and WOW! I have never had wedding food like it. Everyone raved about it. The most perfect day. Can’t fault one single thing about it. Thanks so much guys 🤍

    A truly magical day

    Amy, our wedding co-ordinator was an absolute legend! She has a knack of popping up whenever you need direction, reassurance or guidance. She was professional, calm and totally delightful. With Amy at the helm, our day was totally relaxed, full of love and laughter. Amy was endlessly smiley. Nothing was too much trouble and everything was perfect.

    Perfect location for a wedding

    Even before we got engaged, we always pictured our wedding day at Crown Lodge! It was the perfect location being hidden in the rolling hills of Wye, which for us was sentimental having taken our first couples photo together on the hills. Safe to say when we viewed the venue, it exceeded our expectations! We knew instantly in that moment it was the venue for us - intimate, but enough space for guests to spread out, beautiful location and views and so serene.

    The team are Crown Lodge were fantastic from the beginning. Kylie in particular was always an email away and would respond quickly. They booked in regular meetings to ensure every detail about the day was covered and gave a helpful list of suppliers. This really was essential, particularly for our photographer, who came highly recommended by Kylie and knew the venue well and where the good photo spots were! The venue was also dog friendly, which was hugely important to us to have our 2yr old Golden Retriever join us on the day.

    On the day, the team were super - Kylie was great at checking in with both the bride and groom throughout the day making sure we were okay and had enough drinks in our hands. She even got us girls a cheeky prosecco shot whilst we were waiting for the ceremony to start! Staff were great with interacting with my 7yr old niece too, which my sister was very grateful for. Crown Lodge were also great at speaking with suppliers in preparation to the day and on the day, ensuring things like games and the cake were dropped off seamlessly without the couple having to deal with anything but getting ready.

    Unfortunately we managed to pick the one rainy day in June for our wedding so had to have the ceremony inside. We always dreamed of the outdoor ceremony, but now we couldn't imagine it any other way. We wish we could get married again so we could relive it all.

    Thanks Crown Lodge for everything!

    The best wedding venue

    We got married at Crown Lodge on 02/04/26, and we truly could not fault a single thing. From start to finish, it was the best day of our lives, and everything ran seamlessly. A huge, special thank you to Kylie, who was absolutely fantastic. From the very first day we met her, she was so warm and welcoming. She was always there whenever we had a question and made the entire process feel effortless. If you're looking for a venue that cares, we can't recommend Crown Lodge and Kylie enough. We truly felt we got excellent value for money given the high quality of service and the beautiful setting.

    From the first visit to the wedding day, Kylie and her team looked after us from start to finish. We were wanting for nothing and made the whole event hiring a stress free enjoyable task.

    Wonderful Woodland Wedding

    I cannot recommend Crown Lodge enough! When my husband and I first visited the venue we knew it was the one. Even though we first saw it in foggy rainy February and couldn’t see the gorgeous view!!
    Working with the wonderful people at Crown Lodge was such a pleasure. Kylie was so approachable, kind and friendly. It made the process very easy for us!
    On the wedding day itself I cannot thank them enough for everything Kylie and the team did. They made the whole day run so smoothly.
    We cannot thank them enough for everything. It was the perfect venue for our wedding and is truly such a breathtaking place. I whole heartedly recommend this venue for your wedding and am so happy we got married there.

    Best Day Ever

    Wow — Crown Lodge is absolutely magical! From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the perfect place to say “I do.” The views are breath taking and had all of our guests in awe, and the lodge itself is so beautiful inside that it hardly needed any decoration. At the same time, it offers plenty of space to add personal touches, so it truly feels like your venue.

    What made our day even more special was Kylie and her incredible team. Kylie followed our plan to the tiniest detail and went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly how we imagined. Throughout the day, she checked in with us to see if we were happy, reassured us that everything was running smoothly, and made sure we could just relax and enjoy ourselves. From the very beginning, she was so responsive, kind, and attentive to every little detail in the lead-up to the wedding, which made the planning process feel so much easier.

    One of the things we loved most about Crown Lodge is how flexible it is. Unlike other venues we visited, there are no rigid rules about how your day “should” be. Instead, you’re given the freedom to create a wedding that reflects you as a couple — and that made it feel all the more special and unique.

    We honestly cannot thank Kylie and the team enough for everything they did to make our dream wedding come true. Crown Lodge will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we couldn’t recommend it more highly to anyone searching for a truly unforgettable venue.

    The most beautiful day at the Crown Lodge!

    We had the most stunning wedding day at the Crown Lodge I highly recommend! Absolutely stunning venue with views over the wye downs. Kylie was there every step of the way and was always on hand to answer any questions. On the day she had everything covered, the venue was set-up beforehand for us and it was exactly how I imagined it! She made sure the whole day ran smoothly and I’m so grateful, thank you Kylie & the Crown Lodge team! xx

    A Magical Venue

    From the moment we visited Crown Lodge, we both fell in love with the warm atmosphere and incredible views (even despite the wet and windy weather in October when we first visited!). Kylie made us feel incredibly welcome, reassured throughout every stage, and went above and beyond to make our fire pit request possible. On the day, Kylie and the team made sure everything went incredibly smoothly and we had so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was from our guests. We couldn’t have wished for a better day, and we look forward to returning back to Crown Lodge for many life milestones in the years to come.
