The Best Venue!

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding venue than The Orangery 🤍

From the very beginning, the team were absolutely incredible. They were so helpful, responsive, and always on hand to answer any questions we had (and we had a lot!). Every message was answered so quickly, which made the whole planning process feel smooth and stress-free.

What really stood out was how they guided us through every step in such detail. They took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure both Ben and I knew exactly what to expect on the day. It made such a difference and helped us feel completely at ease.

A massive thank you to Kelley, who looked after us throughout the whole planning process. Kelley and the entire team made planning a wedding feel easy and enjoyable, which we’re so grateful for.

On the day itself, everything ran perfectly. The team were constantly there behind the scenes, helping, organising, and making sure everything went to plan without us ever having to worry. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and their support meant we could fully relax and enjoy every moment.

The Orangery is not only a stunning venue, but the people who run it truly make it special.

We’re so grateful for everything they did from start to finish – we couldn’t recommend them more highly!

The most beautiful venue for our special day! ❤️

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding day! ❤️

The Orangery is the most beautiful venue, and we feel so lucky to have celebrated our special day in such a stunning setting. From the moment we chose the venue right through to the day we got married, everything was absolutely exceptional!

Communication throughout the planning process was so easy, especially with the Sonas online planning system, which made keeping everything organised and making sure all the little details were in place so simple.

Our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more, and we will be forever grateful to The Orangery for helping make it so special. The venue, the team, and the whole experience were just incredible from start to finish! 🥹❤️

We would recommend The Orangery to anyone looking for their perfect wedding venue. Thank you for giving us the most beautiful memories that we will treasure forever! 💍✨

The best day of our lives!

Our wedding at the Orangery was truly unforgettable. Everyone was truly blown away by the venue, the staff and the food. We have received feedback from our guests about how professional and attentive all the waiters were during the drinks reception/dinner and how every member of staff carried themselves with absolute pride and looked so smart too. The grounds were immaculate and the food was out of this world. Guests are still speaking about how truly delicious everything was. We had our ceremony outside at the Gazebo - we were lucky enough to have warm sunshine on an autumns day (8th October) and it looked absolutely fabulous. The team set up the wedding breakfast room exactly how we asked for it to be and every minor detail was covered. Massive shout out to Josie and Harvey - they are a true credit to the team and made our wedding day absolutely flawless.

We feel so lucky to have married at The Orangery and it is a day we will never forget. If you are looking for a wedding venue, we would 1000% recommend The Orangery. It is breathtaking and the staff are truly amazing.

Exceptional in every way!

We had our special day on 11th August 2026 and can honestly say we couldn't have dreamed for a better day. We had the wonderful Rheanna taking care of us and she was a delight to work with as was the rest of the team that we interacted with and the duty managers that took over in the evening. Contact throughout the planning process was second to none, all questions (however big or small) were responded to promptly which helped so much when sorting other suppliers or guest requirements.

Not only were we so happy with the whole experience but we've also had lovely comments from our family and friends. With guests coming up to me on the day saying that it's the most beautiful venue they've ever been to and other comments saying it's the best food they've ever had at a wedding.

Thank you so much to everyone that works at The Orangery and Glow Events! xxx

The best day of our lives!

If you’re thinking of booking The Orangery for your wedding day, I can wholeheartedly say it will be one of the best decisions you make. We absolutely loved our experience with the venue from start to finish, and you can truly feel that you are in safe hands.

From the moment we first looked around the venue, to the inspiration evenings, and finally to our amazing wedding day, the whole process was so organised and seamless. The staff were always attentive, flexible and incredibly helpful, and the venue itself was simply beautiful. We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect place to celebrate our wedding.

A huge shoutout has to go to Kate and Eleanor, our coordinators on the day. Not only are they both lovely people, but they made us feel completely at ease. They calmed our nerves, helped us relax and made sure we knew that everything was being taken care of behind the scenes, so we could simply enjoy every moment of our day.

Communication throughout the whole process was fantastic too. Any questions or queries we had were always answered quickly, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble.

We genuinely couldn’t fault a thing. We had the most incredible wedding day and made memories that will last a lifetime. We’re so grateful to everyone at The Orangery for playing such a huge part in making our day so special. We would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone considering getting married here! ❤️

Incredible venue, unforgettable day!

We had the most incredible wedding day and honestly, that was only made possible because of how friendly, accommodating and helpful everyone was throughout the whole process.

We went to a couple of the inspiration evenings when we were planning, which were really helpful for getting ideas and working out what we liked and wanted for our day. Everyone we spoke to at those evenings was lovely and so helpful, which made us feel really confident that we had chosen the right venue.

With around 8 weeks to go, Kelley started supporting us with the final preparations and she was amazing. She was always there to answer any and all questions, share advice and help with anything we needed, and she constantly made us feel at ease. On the day, both Kelley and Eleanor were brilliant and genuinely couldn’t do enough for us.

They took us to see where we would be walking before the ceremony, which really helped us feel prepared. We also made a last-minute change to the music, and they came back to triple-check that the change was exactly what we wanted. It was little things like this that made such a difference and showed how much they genuinely cared about making sure we were happy.

The day ran so smoothly and we were able to just enjoy it without worrying about anything. Our guests were blown away by how amazing and beautifully kept the venue and grounds were, and we had so many compliments about the food, which was incredible. The service from everyone was fantastic and the DJ was great too.

What we appreciated most was all the advice and support along the way. We never felt like anything was too much trouble, and having people there who knew what they were doing and could reassure us when we needed it made such a difference.

We honestly had the best day and have so many amazing memories from it. A huge thank you to Kelley, Eleanor and the whole team for everything you did for us and for helping make our day such an incredible one. We really couldn’t recommend you enough!

Our beautiful day

Wow. I’m not sure where to begin with this review as i’m still blown away by everything that the orangery team did for our wedding on 26/06/26. Everything was absolutely stunning from the venue to the effort from Michaela and the rest of the Orangery team. Our day was absolutely beautiful and even tho it ended up being one of the hottest days in June history the team worked so hard to ensure we all had the most magical day guiding us through everything step by step. The food was gorgeous and everyone was so happy, our DJ was great and every single guest of ours mentioned how blown away they were by the grounds and venue. Thank you so much Orangery team i wish i could do it all again, love Danielle and Devon.

The Dream Wedding Venue

We got married at The Orangery this summer and it truly was everything we could’ve wanted and more. The staff are so incredibly helpful, the grounds are stunning and everything about it exudes brilliance.

From when we booked back in 2024, to multiple walk arounds, meetings, to the wedding day itself everything was handled so beautifully and with so much grace and care. Every interaction was met with such respect regarding what we wanted for our special day, even down to how fast an email was responded to. Each tiny detail was never overlooked in terms of how it affected the overall experience and we are so completely grateful.

We knew from our first viewing of The Orangery that it was our dream wedding venue, and everyone at The Orangery helped bring that dream to life. The entire day went so smoothly, nothing was too much of a problem, we both were made to feel so looked after. It truly was a day of dreams and all of our guests are still talking about how incredible a day it was!

Also - I cannot describe how delicious the food was! My guests were so shocked that ‘wedding food’ tasted that amazing! Still dreaming about those roast potatoes!

Nothing but amazing ✨

Just wow. The grounds, the people, the food - just wow!

We only visited one venue, and it was The Orangery. From the very first moment, we knew it was the one.
Our wedding day was everything we could have hoped for and more. The venue is just absolutely stunning & all our guest commented on how beautiful it is. We booked our wedding in 2024 based on just the venues aesthetic and wow am I glad we did.
The team were honestly amazing from start to finish. No request was ever too much, and they always went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly as we wanted. From emails at 2am, to feeling like the team were our friends. We truly felt so looked after.
Most importantly id like to thank Rheanna. What a woman! Rheanna constantly reminded me that it’s my wedding day, she made me feel like a princess, nothing was ever too much. From helping the boys with their button holes to holding my dress, to making sure we always had what we needed. THIS WOMEN DIDN’T STOP! You can tell Rheanna actually loves her job and her couples! I honestly feel like I’ve known her for years hahaha!!
In the evening Rheanna made the effort to come & find us to say she’s finished for the day and passed us over to Joe.

Joe was also amazing. He never blinked twice at any of my requests. no matter how random or last minute they were! Again, nothing was ever too much to ask, and everything we needed, we got.. It really felt like he genuinely cared about making our day exactly how we wanted it, and we’re so grateful for everything he did.

We’d also like to say a huge thank you to Freya. She was so lovely throughout the whole day and always made us feel looked after. She was kind, friendly and always happy to help with anything we needed!

Overall, this really was our dream day. The food was stunning especially the beef. We never waited around for the next dish, the service was amazing and fast!
Our DJ Jake (what a man) was also everything we wanted, he listened to what we wanted and just got our vibe!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to start this new chapter as husband and wife. Thank you to everyone at The Orangery for making our day everything we’d dreamed of and more. We’ll cherish the memories we made there forever, and we’d recommend The Orangery to anyone looking for a truly special wedding venue, you absolutely would not regret it!!
