Park Director & Wedding Coordinator

I'm Natalie, Director of Rivendell Park and your dedicated Wedding Coordinator.

From the moment we first acquired Rivendell Park, I knew it was somewhere truly special. Surrounded by beautiful woodland and natural scenery, I could immediately picture the unforgettable weddings that could be created here. My vision was to offer couples a venue where they could celebrate in a way that felt relaxed, personal, and completely unique.

I'm passionate about helping every couple bring their dream wedding to life. Whether you're planning an intimate woodland ceremony or a full weekend celebration with your family and friends, I'll be there to guide you every step of the way. I love getting to know each couple, understanding what's important to them, and helping create a wedding that reflects their personalities and love story.

One of the things that makes Rivendell Park so special is the opportunity to turn your wedding into a memorable weekend experience. Instead of feeling rushed, you and your guests can relax, celebrate, and enjoy quality time together in our beautiful countryside setting, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

For me, there's nothing more rewarding than seeing the excitement on a couple's faces as their vision comes to life. I look forward to welcoming you to Rivendell Park and helping you create a magical woodland wedding that's every bit as unique as your love story.
