    NEY Sparkling Wedding

    The team at South Lodge has made the entire experience of planning our wedding very smooth - they were highly attentive to us from start to finish, nothing has ever been an issue. The day itself was flawless simple because they handled everything for us and so we truly got to enjoy our special day - highly recommend! We will cherish the memories and will always look forward to coming back (not just for the anniversaries).

    Absolutely perfect!

    We had the most perfect wedding day at South Lodge, and Beky and her team played a huge role in making that a reality. The day couldn't have gone any better and we're so happy we chose to have it at South Lodge. The whole team made us feel at ease and well looked after throughout the planning process and wedding weekend. We felt like no request was too much or not possible, and the reassurance that came with was incredible and so needed in the lead up to the day, and the day itself. We were hoping to have our ceremony outside, and the staff were extremely flexible and waited until the very last moment to make that call on day. Thankfully the weather cooperated, and we were so impressed with how smoothly South Lodge was able to run it with little notice. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, but the service really is exceptional. You really will have nothing to worry about. I would do it all over again if I could!

    Wedding at South Lodge

    We had an unforgettable wedding day at South Lodge Hotel. It is a beautiful venue, but what is more important is that the staff took care of every detail, allowing us to fully enjoy the celebration with our friends and family without any concerns about logistics. On top of that, the afternoon tea and the evening buffet were amazing, and we’re left with such wonderful memories of our special day.

    Spectacular occasion, brilliant staff, wonderful venue

    We held our blessing and our wedding breakfast at South Lodge Hotel. We could not have been more delighted. It was all very beautiful and emotional.

    Everyone on the staff was lovely and couldn’t do enough to help - we felt very looked after. The events team made great suggestions and were responsive, diligent and showed attention to detail in the months during which we were been preparing and making decisions. On the day the management team were very responsive. The food and the food service were fantastic, feeding 80 in a low key way that was also seemingly instant. There was no intrusion, it just all seemed to work. The guests were universally extremely impressed. There were some lovely personal touches. The operation of the wedding on the day was almost flawless.

    The event rooms looked amazing, the Gladstone room was spectacular and the Glyndebourne room, where we held the blessing, looked and felt the part. The bedrooms were typically impressive, large, and comfortable.

    We felt it was worth every penny. Not everyone can afford to have their wedding at South Lodge, but if you can it's the place.

    Outstanding

    South Lodge is very beautiful and a lovely place to get married. We were treated very professionally and respectfully from the start, and offered a great deal of flexibility for our plans. All the planning staff were very responsive. We had hoped to get married in the beautiful pavilion, but unfortunately the British Summer being what it is, it poured down on the day. All the staff on the day responded magnificently and we had the ceremony indoors, and it was a lovely and gracious event. We had a great lunch for the wedding party and the recently married couple stayed overnight in a gorgeous room, taking advantage of the stunningly beautiful spa (highly recommended). All in all, many thanks to everyone at South Lodge who made our wedding day so happy and memorable.

    Our dream Wedding at South Lodge Hotel

    We recently had the pleasure of celebrating our wedding at South Lodge Hotel, and we cannot recommend this venue highly enough. From start to finish, our experience was nothing short of extraordinary!

    From the outset, Lizzie, the Events Manager, was incredible. She guided us through every detail with patience and expertise, always available to discuss ideas, answer questions, and resolve any concerns. Her dedication and professionalism ensured that our wedding planning process was smooth and stress-free.

    On the big day, the food and service were truly five-star. Every course was cooked to perfection and presented to a fine dining standard, impressing all our guests. The team went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the meal was exceptional.

    The entire staff at South Lodge Hotel deserves special mention. Their attentiveness and willingness to help were evident throughout our day. Whether it was the setup, the drinks reception on the patio, or the evening festivities with our band, they ensured everything ran seamlessly.

    A standout member of the team was Dan, the Toastmaster. His exceptional skills were pivotal in the smooth running of our day. Dan’s attention to detail and warm demeanour made him an indispensable part of our wedding, ensuring that every moment was perfectly timed and executed.

    We had 65 day guests and an additional 30 for the evening. The drinks reception on the patio was a highlight, providing a stunning backdrop for our celebrations, and the evening entertainment with the band was the perfect ending to our special day.

    If you are considering South Lodge Hotel for your wedding, do not hesitate. They have the expertise, the team, and the dedication to make your dream wedding a reality. We are beyond grateful to everyone at South Lodge for making our day so unforgettable.

    Thank you, South Lodge Hotel!

    Perfect Day at the Perfect Venue

    We had a fantastic experience at South Lodge, from the initial inquiry the team were excellent, making us feel at ease throughout the whole process. Beky, Lizzie, Liz and Amanda really are credits to the venue, nothing was too much for them. They also provided us with Toastmaster Dan who we couldn't have coped without on the day. We would highly recommend to anyone.
