Aisling Sent on 07/08/2026A beautiful wedding day
I don’t know where to begin! From our very first visit to The Parlour, we knew it was the perfect venue for our wedding. The booking and planning process couldn’t have been easier from the very beginning. The staff were incredibly helpful, always quick to answer our emails and ensuring we knew they had received all of our music and other details.
We had a fantastic tasting evening and great planning meetings, where we were given all the information and support we needed to make our day perfect.
Now for the day itself! From the moment we arrived, we knew everything was going to run perfectly. A huge shout-out to the fabulous Karen, who kept us both at ease, made sure everything we had planned happened exactly as we imagined, and was such a bright light throughout our beautiful day.
The BBQ menu was absolutely amazing, and all of our guests commented on how perfect it was for a summer wedding. The evening pizzas were also a huge hit!
We couldn’t be more grateful to the entire team at The Parlour, the wonderful venue itself, and all of the vendors we booked for making our wedding day as beautiful and memorable as it was. We would recommend The Parlour to anyone looking for a relaxed, unique, and truly special wedding venue. -

Shelby Sent on 15/05/2026Our dream day✨
From the minute we viewed The Parlour at Blagdon - we knew it was ‘The One’. From the get go staff were warm, friendly and very welcoming. Nothing was ever too much of a problem.
The process of booking and planning was very easy and we never felt rushed into any decisions, it was all very much lead by myself and my partner. Our meeting points were personalised to us and very helpful. They really helped us envision our day from day one.
Fast forward to our wedding day, and my goodness. Everything and I mean everything went smooth sailing. Our master of ceremony Rachel, was a breath of fresh air and went above and beyond to make sure everything was where it should be at every moment. Our food was stunning, and got lots of good feedback across the board. And every member of staff were fantastic, including Rosanne on the evening!
If we could do our day again, there is no doubt we’d choose The Parlour again, and wish we could just stop by and relive the most magical day over and over. We’re currently keeping an eye out for any summer events so we have an excuse to come again.
5 star service, the most magical day from start to finish. I can’t put into words how much we really did love it. -

We booked the Parlour at Blagdon for our August 2025 wedding and would definitely recommend it!
The venue is lovely, with rustic style buildings and a courtyard in the middle. The bridal suite in the cottage has recently been renovated, it’s beautiful with a large dressing room attached to it. The staff were very organised at every stage of the process. The food tasted great and the portions were generous. Their variety of wedding packages offers flexibility and there are budget friendly options available. We would recommend The Parlour at Blagdon. 5 stars. -

Lauren Sent on 26/11/2025Absolute Perfection
The Parlour at Blagdon was the perfect wedding venue for us. One of the things that first drew us in was how reasonable the autumn/winter pricing was — it opened up options we never expected to have, without compromising on anything. The layout was another huge selling point. Having the Ceremony Room, Stables Bar and Breakfast Room all surrounding the courtyard worked brilliantly. And with the hottest (temperature-wise!) groom in the world, having an easy way to pop outside and cool off was absolutely essential!
In the lead-up to the wedding, we had regular meetings and communication with the team. They were always professional, organised, honest and extremely helpful. If we ever had a question, they were quick to respond, and it always felt like everything was under control.
On the day, the staff were incredible — so calm, so efficient, and so reassuring. Everything ran like absolute clockwork from start to finish. Anne (I may need to double-check the name!) led the day with such confidence and experience that we instantly knew we were in safe hands. Instructions were clear, timings were spot on and they kept the whole show moving without ever once making us feel rushed.
The food was even better than our tasting day — and we loved the tasting! Portions were generous (especially the meat!), everything was piping hot and one of Lauren’s sisters said the food was “so good we didn’t deserve it.” All three courses were genuinely outstanding. In the evening we chose the woodfired pizzas, initially advertised as 90 minutes unlimited. We were a bit sceptical about whether guests would actually get enough, but the team went above and beyond — making pizzas to take away for guests who were too full to eat straight away. People went home delighted (and slightly wobbly) with boxes of wood-fired goodness.
If there was one comment from guests, it was that the bar prices were a little high — not unusual for a wedding venue and absolutely didn’t affect our experience. Everything else more than made up for it.
Our guests absolutely loved the venue. They said it was accessible (not miles into the countryside like some), beautifully decorated, and had that perfect balance of charm and practicality. The outdoor spaces were a huge hit too.
The staff went above and beyond throughout the day. When the cake started to topple, they consulted Lauren and quickly rearranged it next to the cake pops. When the stylist accidentally placed a few people in the wrong seats, the team corrected everything without fuss. And the next morning all of our items were boxed neatly and placed together ready for collection. Their efficiency took so much stress away from us.
The venue has evolved since we first booked — the new pizza shack and the updated bridal prep room were very welcome additions that lifted the space even more. Everything looked beautiful, worked perfectly for photographs, and felt polished without being pretentious.
Another huge relief was how well the Parlour coordinated with all our suppliers. They already had everyone’s details and led the communication. They’ve clearly worked with our photographers, magician and stylist many times before — everything flowed beautifully because the whole team were on the same wavelength.
For us, The Parlour is as close to a perfect venue as you can get.

All the things that could go wrong on a wedding day… none of them did. And we don’t believe that was luck — it was the incredible team at The Parlour keeping everything running flawlessly behind the scenes.
We would recommend this venue wholeheartedly to any couple. -

The perfect day!
We got married at The Parlour in August and we had the most perfect day! The venue is absolutely stunning and great value for money, especially with the newly added dressing room. We had excellent communication throughout the planning stage and staff were happy to answer all of my silly questions.
We were fortunate enough to stay the night before our wedding and staff were on hand for anything we needed. Our day ran absolutely seemlessly, Alison and her team could not have done more for us. They truly went above and beyond and yet didn’t seem to interfere with the day at all. Alison and her team were also around the following morning when we had breakfast to check everything had been ok and to help pack up.
I truly can’t recommend the parlour enough 🤍 -

It all went fantastically, just no one around the next morning to say thank you to, we were just left to carry out all our stuff. Would've been nice to finish the experience. -
