    Amazing wedding venue!

    Our wedding/experience with Denbies was really good, we can’t stop thinking about our day and wish we could do it all over again. Ellie has been a star from start to finish sorting everything out for us and on the day Lexi was also so kind and helpful to make sure everything was to how we wanted it.

    Of course it is a lot of money, but the food was fantastic, clean plates everywhere, the day went so smoothly, mainly because of all the workers.

    My advice is spend a good amount of money on a band as it made our day amazing, it made everyone get up and dance and I would recommend at Denbies, try get everyone into just 1 room at a time so it doesn’t feel spaced out.


    But I couldn’t recommend Denbies highly enough!

    Thank you Denbies!!

    From first tour to last dance - perfection

    We just got married at Denbies Wine Hotel and it was absolutely perfect. From our first meeting to the last dance, Ellie was amazing - she and Abbie made the whole day so smooth and stress-free. The food was outstanding and our guests are still talking about it, with huge credit to Ben and team who ran the restaurant brilliantly. Plus it was incredible to enjoy English wine at its best right where it’s made.

    The staff were brilliant all day, and at the end of the night there was no rushing us out which made it feel so relaxed. Staying at the hotel made the whole wedding feel longer and more special. We were so lucky to have our ceremony outside on the lawn - it felt private for us and our guests. Incredible value for money and we couldn’t have asked for a better venue.

    Thank you to all staff at Denbies.

    Best decision ever

    Booking our wedding at Denbies turned out to be the best decision ever. We couldn't have asked for more beautiful venue, kind and helpful people working there and it was truly the best day of our life. Shout out to Ellie who made the process smooth sailing for us and to every member of the team from making our rooms, running the bar or absolutely anything.

    Best day of our lives

    Denbies were amazing from start to finish. We attended a wedding fayre at Denbies not long after we got engaged, thinking we wouldn’t be able to afford it but wanted to get the ball rolling and start looking at some venues.
    This is where we first met Ellie, she showed us around and talked us though how weddings at Denbies work. She was so lovely and knowledgeable and made us feel at ease. We emailed Ellie with prospective dates and she sent us through some quotes. We were really happy with the quotes given our budget and secured the date.
    Ellie was always available via email or if you popped in and she was about she would always come and see you.
    She supported us through the whole process and was always there to help if we had any questions.
    We had a few guests who were pregnant and due near the wedding and Denbies were very accommodating with this allowing us to add them on last minute.
    Overall Denbies were amazing! All the staff were so lovely and it’s such a beautiful venue.
    We had the best day and can’t wait to visit again.

    Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable🤍

    We just wanted to say the biggest thank you for everything Ellie did to make our wedding day at Denbies so perfect. From start to finish, she was absolutely amazing - organised, calm, and always one step ahead.
    The entire day ran so smoothly, and it truly was everything we had dreamed of and more. Every detail, from the beautiful setup to the timing of each moment, felt effortless thanks to her hard work and dedication. We’ve had so many guests tell us how wonderful the day was, and we know it wouldn’t have been the same without Ellie and the Denbie’s Team.
    The rest of the lovely team who worked on the day - were so polite, attentive and genuinely caring. They looked after our guests so beautifully and made the whole atmosphere feel relaxed and special.
    We’re so grateful for your care, professionalism, and warmth throughout the whole process. It really was the most magical day, everything we dreamed of and more, and we can’t thank you enough for helping make it happen.

    Fabulous September Wedding

    From the very beginning, the venue team was incredibly helpful and guided us every step of the way. With 10 months to plan, we were able to secure our DJ and photographer within the first month. One standout recommendation from the venue was a magician—an unexpected addition that brought an extra layer of surprise and excitement to the day, and our guests absolutely loved it!

    If you're considering dates, I highly recommend choosing September. The lush green vines and ripening grapes create a stunning, natural backdrop for photos—truly picture-perfect.

    One thing to keep in mind: if you're planning to have your wedding dinner in the conservatory, there is a set earliest start time for the meal. It’s just part of how the venue runs, and honestly, it worked out really well for us. Denbies suggested an afternoon tea to bridge the gap, and it turned out to be a lovely addition (at an extra cost but worth it). Our guests really enjoyed it, and it kept everyone happy and relaxed before dinner.

    I would recommend if you're considering this venue to try out the food at the conservatory as it is very delicious (especially the cream tea).

    Thank you again for the amazing day! :)

    Incredible venue, amazing staff, made our day simply perfection

    Honestly we cannot thank Ellie and Abi enough for making our big day so perfect, from the minute I arrived ready to walk down the aisle, Abi made me feel at ease and walking into the venue was beyond anything we could have imagined!

    It was just perfect, everything we dreamt of and more. Ellie and Abi made our day, a day to remember, everything we had planned they organised to perfection, they really go that extra mile to ensure your day is everything you dream of and they certainly smashed it at ours.

    I cannot thank Ellie enough for all your support in the build-up and Abi support on the day, the rest of the team on the day was incredible, everyone was so friendly and helpful and honestly couldn't do enough to help. The food was insane so a huge thank you to the chef and the team.

    Not to forget the hotel staff, our stay and dinner the night before was honestly second to none, they could not do enough. The morning of the wedding they were there to support with anything and everything and nothing was too much trouble, so thank you!

    We can never thank you all enough for our special day. You are all amazing!!

    Faultless experience!

    Planning our dream wedding with Ellie and her team at Denbies was faultless! They were organised, responsive, enthusiastic and so accommodating throughout including last minute changes due to weather. The wedding day was run seamlessly, the food was delicious and the whole venue looked beautiful! Overall, we cannot recommend Denbies enough for a wedding. Thank you Ellie and team!

    Joyful & Relaxed Vineyard Wedding

    Denbies Vineyard Hotel is the most stunning wedding venue. It is perfect for a more intimate wedding celebration, with a relaxed atmosphere and comfortable setting. As it’s a licensed venue we could have our marriage ceremony and reception all in the same place and the transition between each was seamless. We felt confident that the day would unfold as we had planned, due to the level of detail in the planning and the communication with the Denbies team in the run up - they did not disappoint. The service we received was gold standard, all the staff were friendly and accommodating and ensured that our day ran smoothly. They worked tirelessly to ensure that all our guests’ needs were catered for, including some complex specific access and dietary requirements. The food and wine were delicious and received glowing reviews from our guests. The beauty of the surroundings was a constant point of conversation during our day and the enjoyable vineyard land train tour broke up the day perfectly - something a little bit different and another talking point for our guests. A massive thank you to Denbies for making our special day even better than we could’ve imagined!
