Eleanor Sent on 13/09/2026Thorpe Garden End of August Wedding
Our wedding day at Thorpe Garden was even more incredible than we could have ever imagined. The walled garden is stunning and the grounds were in immaculate condition, even at the end of August after such a dry summer — it has such a magical feeling and is such a special place. The canapés, food, and wine were all delicious. Thank you to the Thorpe team for making the planning process so easy and for always being there to answer our questions. A special thank you to our coordinators on the day, Dani and Matt; they made everything feel so effortless and meant we could be in the moment and enjoying every second. It was absolutely perfect and we couldn't recommend Thorpe Garden any more highly.Thorpe Garden - Cripps & Co's reply:

Bank holiday Monday wedding 🩷
Wow, where do I begin with Thorpe garden. We got married on bank holiday Monday 2026. As soon as we had our first visit 2 years ago we knew this was the venue for us. The yurt was so beautiful, even on a rainy dreery day, this sold it for us because we knew the unpredictable UK weather wouldn’t take away the beauty of our venue. As soon as we booked we was supported every step of the way. The team were so responsive every time I had any questions, no matter who small the query the guys came back so quickly to us. We had a planning meeting with Beth which was so so lovely and she gave us some fantastic ideas for our day which was really appreciated. The day itself, Beth and Tom were absolutely fantastic and made me feel so calm even though I was so anxious. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. I even forgot my phone with all of my ceremony music on, but Beth saved the day and took control of everything, it was absolutely no trouble at all for her. Food - 10/10. All of our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious it was and that they couldn’t get enough. I could honestly keep on writing forever about this venue and the team, if you have any doubts about this venue, just don’t. Book it and you won’t regret it. Thank you to all the team, and especially Beth and Tom, we will be forever grateful for our unforgettable day 🩷 love Sophie & Matt xThorpe Garden - Cripps & Co's reply:

Sam Sent on 06/09/2026Attentive, transparent and genuinely cared about us having the best day
We couldn't recommend Thorpe Garden high enough. From the very first interactive, the staff were extremely attentive, quick to respond and (most importantly for us) completely transparent with costs. We felt like they really looked after us for the 12 month build up, answering all our many questions and making accommodations for us. All the staff felt like they genuinely cared about us having the best day and that really shines through their customer service.
The on the day staff were brilliant too, guiding us along without interrupting the flow of the day. They really allowed us to relax into the day and not worry about anything.
A lot of our guests travelled a fair distance from London and we had a lot of 'this is easily the best wedding venue we've been too' comments, which speaks volumes.
Also don't skip the feast nights! Great experience to get you excited for the big dayThorpe Garden - Cripps & Co's reply:
Thank you so much! It means the world to us to hear that you felt so looked after throughout your whole journey with us and that the team on the day helped you to relax and enjoy every moment!
We wish you both a lifetime of happiness! Thank you for choosing Thorpe Garden! -

Rebekah Sent on 01/09/2026Perfect venue for our wedding.
As soon as we viewed Thorpe Garden we feel in love. We loved the mixture of classic, contemporary and fun! We had our meal in the modern room which had brilliant views of the kitchen. We had our celebrant bless us in the old chapel. And we partied the night away in the yurt.
The staff have been attentive and passionate through out the whole experience. We could tell they love working in such an amazing venue.
We have had endless compliments about how good the food was, many saying it’s the best wedding breakfast they’ve ever had.
I could gush about the venue all day and I would 100% recommend viewing it, booking a Feast night and having your big day here!
Thank you everyone at Thorpe GardenThorpe Garden - Cripps & Co's reply:

Book, you won’t regret it!
Thorpe were amazing from start to finish!
Food, incredible
Contact, incredible
Professionalism, incredible
Venue, incredible
Choices of where to get married, 4!
We literally have no bad words to say about Thorpe.
From the day we first visited Thorpe communication was amazing! Any questions we had they would answer within a very reasonable response time! No question was too big or too silly! We had regular emails to remind us of payments. We could alter some meals for people’s specific preferences. We could book viewings in the lead up while planning and had the option to have a final planning meeting a week before our day with our key contact for the wedding, ours was the lovely Dani.
On the wedding day Dani and Jack and all other staff were amazing. They checked in with us, they ensured we had drinks, canapés and that our food was as we wanted it to be. We barely knew they were there, but they were working hard to ensure our day was exactly how we wanted it to be!
They ensured that our day went exactly as we had envisioned and smoothly!
We honestly do not have enough words to say just how incredible this venue is! We are only sad that we cannot do this all over again! And hope someone gets married here so we can experience this again in a different way!
The venue itself is absolutely stunning, there are 4 choices of where you can get married all equally beautiful (2 outside and 2 inside), and two choices of where you can have dinner (the yurt and the pavilion). The venue is very clearly well kept to ensure that it maintains an excellent standard including the gardens.
The bar is stunning and the snug is a perfect little space.
We also enjoyed that we had our own private little space, the bothy. We had a little room that we could go and hide to if we wanted 5 minutes alone, as well as our own toilet. Which for managing a wedding dress proved of great use!!! This had plenty of space for brides to store makeup to top up with throughout the day or anything else you may need.
One thing we initially had worries about was the sound limiter within the yurt for the evening, but honestly we did not need to be worried one bit! The band was perfect within this space!
All of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was, how amazing staff were and how incredible the food was. Trust us you will not go away hungry from Thorpe! The portions are immense, we only wish we could take the food home or have bigger stomachs. And don’t get us started on the brownies!! 🤤🤤!! And the pizza in the evening was amazing!
We highly recommend attending a feast night, this allowed us to have a pre-wedding date night and helped us to choose what wines and food we wanted for our wedding! And we hope to be able to go back post wedding!
To the Thorpe staff, thank you for a perfect day!
We also booked the glam room to get ready on as the bridal party, this was a beautiful space, highly recommend!
And we booked Constantine house, we highly recommend their services also!
Just book you won’t regret it for one second!Thorpe Garden - Cripps & Co's reply:

We are so happy that you chose Thorpe Garden and hope to welcome you back for a Feast Night! We wish you both a lifetime of happiness! -

Joanne Sent on 05/08/2026Amazing venue and so beautiful!
This venue has it all! It offers great spaces to use and each and every part of the venue is just as beautiful! We couldn't fault it, we fell in love with this venue as soon as we cam to view it.
Our wedding felt magical and not just because we were getting married but because of our surroundings too.
The staff are also so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much to ask and they are on hand all day and night to make sure you have everything that you need.
Lastly, we would like to mention how delicious the food was! All of our guests commented on how lovely it was and this included the evening pizzas which were a great hit!
We honestly cannot fault this venue and the staff and if we could do it all over again, we would do it exactly the same, right here at Thorpe Garden in a heartbeat.Thorpe Garden - Cripps & Co's reply:
Thank you so much for your lovely words! We are so thrilled to hear such lovely comments about the team! We pride ourselves on being there for our couples throughout the day, making sure every detail is taken cake of! It was a pleasure to be part of your special day and we are so glad that you loved the venue, food and evening pizzas too!!
Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness! Thank you for choosing Thorpe Garden! -

Rachael Sent on 19/07/2026Brilliant throughout, couldn't recommend highly enough.
Thorpe were brilliant throughout the whole wedding process. From our initial viewing they came across as incredibly professional and really put our minds at ease.
Throughout the planning process, there were super helpful with ideas and suggestions and were able to accommodate all our asks. The communication was really clear, and responded to questions quickly.
The day itself was brilliant, Beth, Tom & team really took care of everything allowing us to fully embrace ourselves in the day. Suppliers came and arrived without us even noticing! (And a lovely touch was the canapé board just for the bride and groom to make sure we ate amongst the mingling!).
But the main point of difference has to the be food. It was delicious and the first things many guests mentioned afterwards, was that they will remember the wedding for the food!
Thanks again to the team and I couldn’t recommend Thorpe highly enough.Thorpe Garden - Cripps & Co's reply:
Thank you so much for your wonderful review!
We are delighted to hear that you felt supported throughout the planning process and that Beth, Tom and the team helped you to relax and enjoy every moment! We are so pleased to hear that you and all of your guests enjoyed the food! We shall certainly pass on your fantastic feedback onto the chefs!!
We wish you both a lifetime of happiness! Thank you for choosing Thorpe Garden!
