    Beautiful Rustic November Wedding

    From our first meeting to see the venue we fell in love with it, we had seen a few venues prior but Donington Park Farmhouse was perfect, exactly the kind of venue we were looking for. A warm rustic country feel, a large enough venue but still managed to feel cozy.
    Very quick communication throughout the process, we had a few meetings with the venue leading up to the date. The ladies were amazing, we went with questions but before we had chance to ask, the answers were already provided which was brilliant. Very detailed and they would go through the running order of the big day for me so nothing was forgotten.

    The venue is beautiful with fairy lights and the outdoor courtyard was fantastic for family photos. The food was absolutely amazing and everyone was very happy with it. One thing we would say, for the evening service, there was enough food for everyone but most of the day guests didn't choose to have any, if we were to go through it all again we would probably reduce the amount of food to save on waste and money.

    One issue, was being able to decorate the venue, you cannot get into the venue until 10am to decorate and guests can arrive from 12pm so it’s a tight deadline. We had decorators and friends handle this, but if you are doing this yourself it is a mammoth task to undertake. It wasn’t until the week before that I was informed you can potentially access the venue the evening before, by this time we had already hired decorators.

    Cannot fault the venue or staff at all, service and standards were excellent.

    Absolute dream venue

    We have absolutely loved our wedding at Donington Park Farmhouse. All the events planners, hotel and bar staff were brilliant - supportive and kind. We had a few last minute changes which were unavoidable and they really helped to make sure that didn’t spoil our day. The venue itself is beautful, we were married in the threshold barn it felt like a dream. With the lighting that is already there, it took minimal decorations which helped save costs. The food was exactly what we wanted, incredibly tasty with minimal fuss. Thank you so much to all the team at DPFH

    Perfection

    Our Wedding Day was in October 2023. It was absolutely everything we’d envisioned and much much more! The beauty of the barn itself and the whole venue had our guests stunned from the offset. With our burnt orange decor and the rustic nature it was a pure autumnal vibe - our favourite time of year.
    Every staff member was so helpful and friendly, nothing was too much for them and they assisted us so well throughout planning and executing the big day. A special thank you to all involved! We came and visited several times with family members and each time fell more in love with this captivating space.
    A true gem of a venue and what’s more with their events throughout the year we get to go back and visit again to bring back memories of such a wonderful day!
    Plus we had our Daphne dog with us to celebrate, how can you not invite the 4 legged family to the party?

    Absolutely Perfect

    Donington Park Farmhouse is an absolutely beautiful venue and was perfect for us! The venue is completely flat access which was amazing for our guests with wheelchairs. Our wedding was so relaxed and everything went smoothly, we got married in the threshing barn and had a casual dining option where people sat where they liked. The food was amazing. The co-ordinators were absolutely wonderful, even going the extra mile to escort me and the bridesmaids from my room with umbrellas because of the rain! The bedrooms are beautiful and the breakfast the next morning was also great. We can't thank the team enough for making our day so magical, we would definitely recommend Donington Park Farmhouse!

    Beautiful Countryside Venue

    This venue was the perfect mix of rustic boho barn and countryside. There were great food options that suited our non traditional plans. The venue speaks for its self with so much character that we didn't need to spend much on decorations. There was plenty of indoor space for all our guests which was great as we had poor weather. The staff were super helpful on the day and helped everything run smoothly. We were also so happy to find a venue that would cater for vegans, aim to be sustainable, and didn't cost the earth.
