Lavinia Sent on 03/06/2026Dream Wedding
Nettlestead Place is a stunning venue, the moment my partner, (now husband!) and I arrived we knew it was the place for us.
The house itself is a gorgeous historic property which provides access to a large bridal suite which made getting ready on the day really convenient.
It also has a unique 'Undercroft' which is a stone vaulted room where you can have your ceremony and is unlike anywhere else I have seen. It helped make our day so special to say our vows there.
Alternatively you can have an outdoor ceremony in the beautiful rose garden, where we got to enjoy our photographs, as well as holding our drinks reception in the beautifully curated and colourful grounds, including the lovely wild meadow.
As well as the picturesque house and gardens there is a spacious marquee where we had a wonderful wedding breakfast and then danced the night away.
Having a separate dance floor area within the marquee was great as there was no need to get out of the way so the room could be cleared and changed over for the evening, everything just flowed seamlessly onwards.
The staff were all so helpful throughout the day, and kept everything moving brilliantly, and the catering team and bar staff were really professional and their food and drinks all absolutely excellent. We also had great fun choosing our menu and wines at a tasting day earlier in the year.
However none of our day would have been possible without the help of Sharon who is the guiding hand of the company and who was so patient and helpful in letting us visit several times so we could work out flower arrangements and table layout etc
Sharon always made the process really clear and was very responsive to any new queries all from the moment of our first visit.
Sharon also made sure the day itself was everything we could have wanted, and free of stress as Sharon liaised with all our suppliers and made sure everything arrived where and when it was needed.
We can't thank Sharon and her team enough for their support and the work they put into what was a truly special day.
Also a huge thankyou to the owners, Annabel and her husband, not only for sharing their home but for our delicious breakfast the morning after the wedding.
We can't thank you all enough.
Nettlestead Place's reply:
Dear Lavinia
Wow what can I say but thank you for your beautiful words. I am so happy that the day was perfect for you both and I feel honoured that you chose Nettlestead Place for you and Lees wedding celebration.
All the best to you both.

Joanne Sent on 11/10/2025Wedding Venue of Dreams!
We are writing this 1 week after the best day of our lives!! Nettlestead Place was the first and only venue we visited, and we knew straight away that this was the place we would get married. From Sharon’s excellent communication throughout the whole planning period, and her warm and friendly approach, to stunning gardens, the beautiful undercroft and Lewis and his team of bar staff, we knew we were going to be in good hands.
We sent so many emails with various queries ahead of the wedding, and Sharon was always very prompt and helpful in her replies and was very patient and flexible.
It is also worth noting that we had a guest with significant mobility issues, but this was not an issue and her needs were met.
So many people have said what an excellent place to have a wedding, it really did have everything!
We are so grateful for the wonderful team for helping us organise the wedding of our dreams!!

Charlotte Sent on 22/09/2025Amazing Venue
We got married at Nettlestead place in June 2025, Sharon was amazing from start to finish, the was very responsive on emails, answering our many questions - nothing was too much. The day ran really smoothly and we had a brilliant time, the only thing that was a little bit of a downer was that guests didn't seem to get all of their soft drinks they were due to get during the meal - but only 1 or 2 mentioned that to me.. other than that from before through to after the wedding I cannot recommed Nettlestead enough -

Blake Sent on 04/07/2025A Brilliant venue with organised professional staff, providing the best experience
Thank you soooooooo much for providing a magical, brilliant, super, amazing (there are so may more positive adjectives I can use to describe the event) day for my Son and Daughter. Everything was perfect, the staff waiting on the tables were soooooo professional and did it in military fashion and timely, wow, the food was amazing and the venue, wow wow wow. I have no more words, I'm even filling up just thinking how everything went soooo smoothly and that is credit to you and your staff. I have had so many messages from friends and family discussing the views and beautiful venue, delicious food, friendly atmosphere, timely service and great organisation.The weather was great too and made the ceremony brilliant. I cannot thank you enough for giving Ryan and Lucy THE MOST PERFECT DAY. -

Holly Sent on 04/07/2025Absolute dream
We truly enjoyed our absolute dream wedding at Nettlestead Place. As soon as we stepped through to the gardens, we knew 100% that this would be our venue. It’s totally stunning and I’m just so happy we found it and got married in the rose garden. Sharon was our wedding coordinator and she was amazing throughout – always answering my constant little questions (nothing was ever too big or small!) and was essential in helping us make sure the day ran smoothly. It was honestly a perfect day and I just wish I could do it all over again. I would recommend Nettlestead Place to anyone who loves the beautiful English outdoors. I will treasure the memories I have there forever and I really hope to visit on any future open garden days they may hold! -

Amy W. Sent on 18/01/2025Perfect for a summer garden wedding!
Rich and I got married at Nettlestead in August, and we can honestly say it was the venue of our dreams. We cannot thank Sharon and her team for helping us to insure that the day was everything we wanted and more. They went above and beyond for us. The rose garden was the perfect setting for our ceremony and the grounds were stunning and immaculately kept! It was perfect to have our whole wedding day in one location, but with enough separation to make each part of the day individually special.
We would 100% recommend this venue and Sharon and her team!Nettlestead Place's reply:
Hi Amy and Rich. I hope you are loving married life. Thank you so much for your kind words which I will pass on to our team.
It was a joy working with you both and your lovely Mum, whilst you were working abroad.
Your wedding photos look incredible and provide a perfect picture of a perfect wedding day.
All the best to you both.
Best wishes Sharon -

Nicola Sent on 03/11/2024Picturesque perfection
Nettlestead Place really is a beautiful place to get married, from the entrance driveway to the main house, gorgeous rose garden, lawns and view from the wedding marquee. Sharon was extremely helpful from start to finish with great communication throughout the process and was a very reassuring and calming presence on the day itself. The bar staff could not have been lovelier and the food was first class. A very special place steeped in history with real English charm. -

Sophie Sent on 05/09/2024Everything we wanted and more
Nettlestead Place is everything we wanted and more. The venue has several mini locations and hidden spots within it, which allowed us to take our guests on a scenic journey – from canapés in the rose garden to dancing in the marquee – and provided the perfect backdrop for photographs. The food matched the beautiful surroundings, with many of our guests claiming it's the best wedding breakfast they've ever had, but it was undoubtedly the warm, capable hands of the Nettlestead team that allowed the day to be the success that it was. Do not hesitate to book if you're looking to have a fun, relaxed and joyful event. -

Grace Sent on 06/06/2024A fairytale venue
We saw Nettlestead for the first time in the October rain and we knew that if we loved it that much in the rain, it would be perfect in the spring/summer.
Sharon was always on hand to help, answer any questions and make sure everything ran smoothly on the day.
We had the ability to visit in the lead up to our day to check any details or just enjoy the grounds for a short time.
Everyone said it was such an unusual and beautiful place, they had never been to another wedding like it.Nettlestead Place's reply:
Dear Charlie and Grace
Thank you for your wonderful testimonial. Your wedding day was so beautiful and I have loved working with you both.
I wish you all the very best for your future lives together.
Best wishes.
Regards
