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 -

We are SO glad we chose High House and had Lily, our wedding events manager, there to help bring our wedding day to life! 🤍
From the very beginning, we knew we had to pick High House. The glass orangery is something out of a fairytale and the grounds are SO well kept, even during a heatwave when you expect everything to be yellow - the grass was a sparkling green. The grounds are stunning and it just feels like you're in a fantasy land abroad (especially with the pool), not in Essex! Everything was beautifully organised, and the setting was perfect for our special day. We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful place to celebrate with our family and friends. We even got to have our cultural food as part of our wedding which meant so much to us and made everything memorable - High House were so accommodating.
We went to see quite a few wedding venues in Essex and High House stood out to us as their glass orangery is unique and stunning, add not a marquee like a lot of other venues! It is also rare to have everything all in one venue with a great flow from ceremony to reception and I think that's something that makes High House stand out from anything else.
We liked how there was also on-site accommodation for around 25 additional people, this was really convenient for us and appreciated by our guests. We also loved having separate areas to get ready in with our bridesmaids and groomsmen which made the morning prep so much easier.
As for Lily, she was incredible from start to finish. She was so lovely, professional and supportive throughout the entire planning process, always making sure everything was taken care of and that we felt completely at ease. On the day itself, she went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment.
There are so many little details that go into a wedding, and Lily handled everything perfectly. She was always on hand when we needed her, while making sure the day flowed seamlessly behind the scenes. Her care, organisation and attention to detail made such a difference.
We’re so grateful to our venue and to Lily for helping make our wedding day so special and memorable. Everything was perfect, and we couldn’t recommend them enough!

We had our wedding here in September 2026. Our wedding co ordinator Sian was absolutely amazing. The whole thing was so organised from start to finish, and I never thought I’d feel so calm on my wedding day. This venue is perfect in every way and they can tailor everything to your liking. I would 100% recommend this venue, I could not have imagined our wedding to be anywhere else.High House Weddings's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words, Kayleigh. We're so glad your day was everything you imagined it to be and wish you every happiness for your future together. -

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 -

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. -

Shelby Sent on 03/06/2024Accessible 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 ❤️❤️❤️

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.High House Weddings's reply:
