    Dream wedding

    The staff at High House were absolutely incredible, so attentive, kind and friendly. Every single guest had a compliment to pay to the staff. They all went above and beyond and made the day extra perfect.
    Our wedding coordinator Harriet was brilliant and answered any and every equation we had a on the lead up to the day and regular meetings to see how we were getting on.
    The venue itself is absolutely stunning all our guests were blown away, there were multiple beautiful areas. The grounds were gorgeous, the barn and orangery breathtaking

    There’s a reason they’re voted one of the best!

    High House is the perfect place to get married! The staff are all so lovely and helpful! Our event manager was Ella and she made us feel completely at ease and was always on hand to answer any questions we had, her calm nature and excellent organisation was very much appreciated. The team on the day made sure that everything was perfect for us and made the place look amazing. We cannot recommend High House enough, the barn and orangery are beautiful and all of ours guests were saying how amazing the venue was and how lovely the staff were. Absolutely everyone loved the food and kept mentioning throughout the day how nice it was - it was all delicious! On the lead up to the day, the communications with the team made it feel so smooth and easy - they truly did take away any nerves that we had. We had an amazing tasting evening too which is such a nice touch! The DJ Daren was excellent and was able to fit in lots of different genres, nothing was off limits and we had such a good evening with lots of dancing! We had a fantastic day and that was achievable due to the amazing team at High House

    Magical Venue

    Can't praise High House enough! Beautiful venue, professional, experienced, hard working staff, fantastic food, great DJs, personal touch and nothing was too much for our planner and the other staff.
    We're a mature couple so our guests had been to lots of weddings and said it was the best one they'd been to.
    Ceremony barn was decorated beautifully, all we added was a table flower decoration and we dropped the orangerie decs off in the morning, checked it before the ceremony, and it was done perfectly. All our guests (a lot of them foodies), said the food was faultless, hot, fresh and delicious and the waitresses were very attentive. Our planner spent most of the morning running backwards and forwards for me as I was being pampered and took away all the stress, she even babysat whilst the photos were being taken.DJ was excellent and got everyone dancing and my hairdresser and MUA said the dressing room was perfect with natural light and lots of mirrors and shelving for their products and equipment.
    The bar staff were hard working and quick too and all worked hard to pack our wedding away safely for us to collect the next morning.
    We have beautiful photos taken in the beautiful, extensive grounds where the grass was freshly manicured on our wedding day.

    Accessible venue with mindful, attentive and caring staff.

    You won't find anywhere else like this! Wedding of dreams.
    I can't thank everyone enough that works at High House. Everyone was so helpful, kind and mindful. Jess & Hayley in particular were just absolutely wonderful. Honestly feel emotional at how wonderful they were. I have multiple chronic conditions and needed things to be adapted to help me and wow, they just truly went above and beyond to help me. I needed a venue that was accessible for my varying needs and for my friend that is a wheelchair user also. Literally from the first week of me visiting the venue they immediately wanted to help make things even more accessible. The only steps at this venue are the brick steps into the bridal dressing room but they ordered in ramps for here and they were brilliant. Really helped. They adapted other areas for me, went through things that would help me more. I was really worried about how I would manage my conditions on the wedding day but speaking with Jess & Hayley prior to the wedding they really lifted a huge weight of worry from me. They made me feel really held and that I could feel excited about the wedding day without worry. I honestly wouldn't of been able to manage if I'd got married at any other venue. It just wouldn't have worked for me. They really gave me the wedding of dreams. I couldn't have asked for anything more, the wedding day was absolutely perfect. I can't believe it. It feels surreal just how perfect it was and that really was down to how helpful and caring they are at High House. It's not just a business, they truly want everyone to feel happy and have the wedding of their dreams. I really can't thank them all enough. What wonderful people and a wonderful venue. It's got this beauty to it that's so special and really can't be replicated or found at any other venue. It was magical and more than we could have ever hoped for. Thank you so much!! You've made my heart feel so full and grateful ❤️❤️❤️
    Love from Shelby and Stuart (Wedding day 20/05/2024)

    Where to even start

    All I can say is wow!! High house went above and beyond for my partner from booking the venue to our special day and we couldn’t have asked for anything better. Our planner Jessica was super in every way and made sure our day was perfect. The venue is beautiful and has such a homely feel. Everything is immaculate and our guests were wowed by this. We had the best wedding day and couldn’t have asked for it to go any better.

    Mr & Mrs Dempsey

    Kelly & Paul’s wedding on Sunday 28th April 2024 As parents of the Bride we would like to thank Haley & Jessica and all their team for their professionalism and the calm that they bring to a very special occasion. Everything that they do from the initial meetings to the booking of the wedding and the months of pre planning of the wedding day is done through meetings with the Bride & Groom. The advice that they give and the contacts details of their suppliers was first class. Our daughter and her partner chose Valentine Cuisine as their caterer for the wedding breakfast and it proved to be a great choice with many many of the guests commenting on how good the food was. Well done to Adrian and his team of chefs, waiters and waitresses and those serving the food. Thank you to the day’s photographer and videographer for taking the photos and the video. We cannot wait to see them. The way they marshalled us all to where we needed to be and the many different shots that they took was again all done in a very calm way and put the Bride & Groom at ease with it all. High bHouse is an immaculate venue. The grounds a very well kept, the interior of the dressing room and the bridal suite and guest rooms were all of a very high standard. Haley & Jessica were hands on all day and well into the evening. We cannot praise them enough. A very very good well run and professional venue and team. It is no wonder that they win awards time after time for best wedding venue in the south east of England. Long may it continue. We urge you all to Google High House and book an open day to view if you are planing on getting married. You will be well received by Haley and her team with Valentine Cuisine offering tasty canapés. You will not regret it.

    High House Weddings's reply:

    Thank you so so much for your kind words Brian, we are delighted to hear that you had such a wonderful day here on Sunday. It was our pleasure to host you all and we will pass your comments on to our team who will be so pleased to hear them.

    High House is a very special venue

    High House is a very special venue, we both knew it as soon as we stepped inside on our first open day. As it is a family home you can feel the love and care in the atmosphere and surroundings. Our day was absolutely perfect and we wouldn’t change one thing about it. The staff are lovely and Hayley is an absolute superstar. Thank you High House!!
