    Our special day

    Perfection from start to finish for our December wedding. We could not have asked for more from the admin staff, planners, caterers and front of house staff. The food was absolutely incredible as was the service. We came into wedding planning knowing very little but were guided by the staff which was most welcome. A million stars!

    Grangefields – Cripps & Co's reply:

    Hi Lia,

    We are so thrilled that you had the most fantastic wedding with us. It is so important to us that all elements in the lead up to your wedding day are as seamless as the day itself. We are so pleased that you found our guidance through the planning stages to be helpful, as we all know planning a wedding can be very overwhelming!

    We can't wait to see some photographs from your special day!

    Have the most wonderful first Christmas as a married couple.

    Best wishes,
    The Team at Grangefields

    The Most Beautiful Venue

    Grangefields was the fifth venue we viewed and the third barn. From the second we walked into the courtyard we knew it was the one.

    Before we had even got there the team at the Cripps and Co head office had been great, working with my specific wedding and budget requirements (we opted for a twilight wedding with a 5pm ceremony), and then we met Victoria, Tim, Jade and Holly.

    The team we absolutely amazing from the get go. I sent many, many emails over the planning time and they were brilliant at responding in a timely manner.

    On the day, they helped set things up, calm me down and just generally made the whole experience flawless.

    From the service, to the food, to the bar, everything was perfect. Every single member of the team were so helpful and accommodating.

    We had a number of very severe allergies on out guest list, including myself, and the kitchen were fabulous at making sure we all had a safe experience, while providing the most incredible food.

    We genuinely had the best day of our lives at the most beautiful venue we had ever seen. I cant thank everyone at Cripps and Co enough and I wish we could do it all over again tomorrow.

    P.s. the Cripps chips are amazing!

    Grangefields – Cripps & Co's reply:

    Hi Natasha,

    We are so pleased that you had the most fabulous wedding experience from start to finish! It really is music to our ears when we hear that every single member of our team has helped you in some way towards creating the perfect wedding day.
    The ceremony room looked absolutely magical with you tying the knot a little later on in the evening and we couldn't serve our Cripps chips fast enough!

    We cannot wait to see more photographs and please don't be strangers.

    Congratulations again from all of the team at Grangefields.

    The BEST day!

    We booked our wedding at Grangefields in January after getting engaged in December. Having looked at other venues, we wanted to make sure we had looked at them all! WOW! From the moment we walked in the door we knew it was the venue for us, it’s absolutely stunning that has been finished to perfection! The biggest thing for us was how the staff made us feel, from meeting Tim the first time, to having meetings with other members of the team, nothing felt like too much effort and made us feel like we could make it our wedding and not that they were churning out the same wedding everyday! Victoria was fantastic on the wedding morning, she was calm, professional but also seemed to share the excitement we were feeling. She made sure everything ran smoothly! The food was also amazing, all of our guests said it was the best food they have ever had, the quality and the quantity of food exceeded our expectations! I would recommend this venue to anyone!

    Grangefields – Cripps & Co's reply:

    Hi Jess,

    Oh my goodness how has it been two weeks since you tied the knot already! What a day it was! Your friends and family clearly understood the assignment and brought the energy to your wedding day!

    We love hearing that the food was amazing, it is such a huge part of what we offer here and we want everybody to leave us having had the best time ever.

    We hope that you are still very much in your wedding bubble and Congratulations again!

    Best wishes from all of the Team at Grangefields.

    A perfect venue

    We highly recommend Grangefields for your wedding venue, the location, the team and all the staff are exceptional. Tim and the team supported us right from our first visit, were always quick to respond and helped enhance some of our idea's for the day to make sure our wedding was magical, a big thank you to Holly and Matt also who were the managers on shift and ensured everything ran smoothly.

    19/10/25 R&J

    Our entire wedding day went off without a single problem (other than the rain), everyone at Grangefields were so helpful and on top of everything the entire day. We could not be happier with our entire experience with them, from our very first viewing to coming back the morning after, we've loved every second and can honestly say that a big reason for that is the staff being amazing. We will never forget how we felt on our wedding day, and will definitely be looking for any reason to come back to Grangefields in the future.

    Grangefields – Cripps & Co's reply:

    Hi Rhys and Jade,

    We are so glad that you had the most wonderful experience with us from start to finish. We will be sure to pass on your kind words to all of our staff as it truly does take an army of people to pull off a fantastic wedding.

    We cannot wait to see your photographs, especially those two little giraffes!

    You must come back to one of our Feast Nights, how about October next year to celebrate your one year anniversary!

    Congratulations again!

    Our new begging

    Well not quite sure where to start...
    Hostess of the mostess... Tim! You are truly welcoming warming and an absolutely fantastic host!
    Suffering with OCD and anxiety. I've had lots of contact regularly with the venue to arrange your wedding and everyone has always been absolutely fantastic in reassuring me! Even the day before the wedding, Holly scheduled a phone call to calm my nerves and reassure everything when arriving on the big day. Holly said how smoothly the morning had gone and everything was a breeze. She can't buy nerves and honestly between her and Matt the evening manager they gave myself And my husband a truly memorable day!
    Even when my husband to be at the time fell ill. They were quick acting and help to sort him out! Reconfigured things so that timings was accordance to an overrunning ceremony. But needless to say, every member of staff that we came into contact with were absolutely fantastic. He is such a good team!
    Words cannot describe other than perfection and the food second by everyone was truly amazing!

    Again, we cannot thank them enough for making our day so special and perfect in every way.. lots of love the Butler family

    Truly amazing day!

    Tim, Victoria, Megan and the phenomenal team at this beautiful venue, in an amazing setting made our day… truly and wholeheartedly we mean that.

    Our expectations were exceeded in every way, from the meticulous planning to the sublime food and accommodating literally every request we had… this brilliant group of entirely committed, wonderful people moved mountains to ensure our day was flawless and we were comfortable throughout.

    For us it felt effortless, everything happened seamlessly and even guests turning up after the wedding breakfast were accommodated.

    The team at Grangefields were the reason we chose the venue and If we were to get married again, we would 100% choose this venue and team for our wedding. Perfect! Xxx

    Beautiful November Wedding

    Words can’t even describe how amazing the staff were at Grangefields.
    From the moment we came to view the venue, to the wedding day, it was absolutely faultless.
    Tim and the staff made us feel so special and the day was so smooth.
    All of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to!
    The food was absolutely outstanding, the drinks kept flowing and they really made every effort to make us feel loved and supported.
    Thank you so much to everyone at Grangefields, you are all really special.
