The perfect intimate wedding venue!

After viewing several wedding venues none were quite right for us until we viewed The Heron Country Club. From initial contact right through until after our wedding the team could not have been more accommodating. Everything on the day ran so smoothly. We were lucky enough to have a sunny day so were able to have our ceremony outside in the beautiful garden. The garden room set up looked amazing for our wedding breakfast and evening reception. The food we chose was delicious! Several guests have commented on the food and how helpful all the team were on the day. We can’t thank the team enough and will be forever grateful.

The absolute best team and venue

Thank you so much for the incredible experience you gave us. From the moment we made the booking until the very last moment of the day, I truly can’t fault a thing. Everything was absolutely beautiful and flawlessly executed.

We knew as soon as we met Umesh and saw the venue that it had to be Heron Country Club — we didn’t even bother visiting anywhere else. That first impression proved absolutely right, because what you delivered exceeded all expectations.

Your attention to detail was exceptional, and the way you accommodated the entire day so effortlessly was beyond impressive. A special thank you to the chef — the food was outstanding, and our guests couldn’t stop praising it, along with the warm and attentive staff.

Only Umesh and the team could have handled such a traditional and culturally rich wedding with such care, respect, and perfection. We are so deeply grateful for everything you did to make the day unforgettable.

With heartfelt thanks,

The Kole’s

September 2024 wedding - The Marshalls

We had our wedding here in September 2024 and all I can say is a huge thank you to Umesh and team.. Umesh is just amazing, from visiting the venue 18 months in advance and meeting Umesh we just fell in love with the Garden room and Umesh himself just made us feel at ease with all we wanted and we just knew it was the place for us. Communication all the way through was great with the events team and nothing was too much to ask for. On the day all our guest commented how lovely Umesh was and he was involved in all the details. We wanted a great wedding party after having our smaller ceremony elsewhere and we got exactly that and more. We were so lucky the weather was on our side to appreciate the outside & the venue and food was perfect. We want to do it all over again!!
Thank you Umesh! From The Marshalls xx

The perfect day!

All the staff at The Heron Country Club made our day so special! Nothing was too much trouble and the venue is amazing!
This venue is perfect for a small wedding. We had 50 guests and there was plenty of room! The weather even held out and we were able to use the outdoor terrace/garden area.
Lots of lovely photo opportunities too
Would defiantly recommend!

Wedding Celebration reception

Friday Saturday 6th September, we held our wedding celebration party in the Garden room.
We, Carol and Peter were overwhelmed with the quality of organisation and service we received from Umesh and his team.
Everyone commented on the superb food and attention to detail, in such a beautiful setting.
We would highly recommend this venue, to anyone looking for the perfect place for a celebration.

5 stars is not enough credit for the service we received on the day (& the leadup), I wish I could give more!

Every single one of the staff are the loveliest and most incredible people, they made the whole day flawless and it looked better than I ever could have hoped for.

A special shout out to Umesh who from start to finish made this the best day ever!

Thank you again guys, you exceeded our expectations of how we thought our day would be and look like, I can't tell you how happy we are!

Outstanding

Umesh and his team could not have been more professional, accommodating and friendly from our initial contact with them, through detailed planning, to the immaculate service that we received on our wedding day. The venue exceeded our expectations with the wonderful bar and dining area where we enjoyed a fantastic wedding breakfast to the beautiful garden area. We can't thank the team there enough for their part in making our day so special.

Magical Day

Our wedding was held at the Heron Country Club back in June and it was nothing short of magical! We took our time to view many different venues across Essex, but came away absolutely convinced the Heron was the best. The staff were absolutely faultless and I cannot thank them enough. Special shout out to Molly who organised everything from the very start, and made our day so perfect. Thank you!!!

Outstanding venue

This venue is amazing! we couldn’t pick a better venue for my daughter’s wedding.
The whole staff was very friendly and very accommodating. Our event coordinator was always very helpful and guided us with any questions we had.

The food was excellent, the table setup was perfect with access to the patio and a great view. A place to enjoy and relax!

If you are looking for a venue for your wedding or birthday, give them a call. The staff will be more than happy to show you this beautiful place.

Thank you!

Fantastic & such a great team!

Myself and my husband booked initially for September last year, due to family circumstances we moved the wedding until this year April.

Molly was very helpful and patient! Due to us having to change a lot along the way so thank you so much for your efforts.


The venue its self is faultless, easy access, clean and very well kept. We were due to have the wedding outside however due to the weather it was moved inside. The venue was set up better than I could have imagined. Thank you to the chef for the fine dining experience & everything tasted amazing.

Nothing is too much trouble for the team and if you are planning a wedding I would highly recommend.
