    A wedding to remember at Dorothy Clive Gardens

    Beth and Taka were married in Japan in late 2023, but coming to the UK for the first time as couple ,asked us to arrange a special celebration of their marriage for close family. The Dorothy Clive Gardens were superb in everything they did to help organise and host this on a wonderful summers day. With the herbaceous borders out and a fantastic vegetarian/vegan English afternoon tea, special memories were made. Thank you all at the DCG you were outstanding, as is the garden for wedding venue.

    Perfect Day

    We cannot recommend this venue enough. We got married at the beginning of July and we had a fantastic day. We had a small party of 19 and got married in The Woodland Pavilion with an afternoon tea in the top hat tippee. The whole experience was perfect the venue and food were superb. The gardens are beautiful and the staff professional and very obliging, not forgetting to mention friendly. We would 100% recommend this experience

    Outside Ceremony Dorothy Clive Gardens

    We held our wedding ceremony at Dorothy Clive Gardens on Saturday, outdoors, in front of the Belvedere Pavillion. The setting is beautiful and fitted perfect with our relaxed wedding vibe. Meg, the wedding coordinator, kept in touch from the moment we booked until the ceremony. She was there on the day and directed the venue dresser, guests, photographer, etc, so that everything ran smoothly. The gardens are stunning and make perfect memories and pictures. We can't wait to visit the gardens again as Mr and Mrs. We would highly recommend the venue and staff as nothing was too much trouble.

    Could not ask for more

    The most stunning location for a wedding. Our wedding was just myself and my groom and it was the perfect setting. If you are unsure go and visit and I promise you will be blown away. The gardens are beautifully maintained and all the staff are incredible not to mention Meg who will make the run up to your wedding seamless and the day perfect beyond words. If you want a beautiful, unique, tranquill venue for your wedding then this is the place. 10/10 I cannot find fault and wouldn't not change a thing about our wedding day.

    A Beautiful Place to Celebrate Your Day

    Such a beautiful garden and everyone could not be more helpful! So many beautiful areas in the garden to create wonderful photos whether they are couples shots, groups or candid moments caught on camera. I can't recommend this place anymore they are brilliant 💜

    Beautiful wedding

    Its an idyllic venue for a small and intimate wedding set amongst the gardens with nature’s beauty as the backdrop. Our wedding planner Meg and the team at Dorothy gave us friendly support and were always on hand to help make this day so special.

    Simply wonderful

    From the moment I visited the Dorothy Clive Garden, I knew it was the perfect place for us to get married. My husband agreed and we began preparations.
    We liaised with Kathryn who took time to talk us through options and details, nothing was too much trouble.
    We then worked with Meg, a wonderful wedding planner at the gardens. She was simply fabulous, a caring individual who loves what she does.
    The afternoon tea was absolutely perfect! All our guests enjoyed themselves and commented on how lovely and unique our wedding was.
    Needless to say, I highly recommend this wonderful venue for a wedding.
    Thank you Kathryn, Meg and your fantastic team for making our day so memorable!

    Ceremony in Woodland Pavilion

    The Woodland Pavilion at the Dorothy Clive Garden, although small, is an ideal place to hold an intimate wedding ceremony in a rural setting. It is a roofed structure with a flagged floor and wooden background wall and several large pillars.
    It is tucked away in a quiet corner of the garden, giving considerable privacy to your celebration, even on busy days.
    There is the opportunity to decorate and furnish the area to your wishes, in a short space of time, making it into a very personal space.
    There are several outdoor areas for an “after ceremony get together” and, if like us, you are blessed with wonderful weather on the day, you will certainly have a magical day to remember.

    The Dorothy Clive Garden's reply:

    Many thanks,

    The Dorothy Clive Gardens.

    A Magical Day in a Great Setting.

    We wanted a simple family and friends only wedding, we wanted outside, we wanted simple and down to earth, we wanted it DOG FRIENDLY, we wanted it intermate, we wanted a beautiful location.. Dorothy Clive provided all of this plus much more, nothing was to much to make our day, truly one to remember..
