The Parlour at Blagdon

We had our wedding at The Parlour at Blagdon on 20 September, and it was such a special day for us. The venue looked beautiful, and we loved being able to make it feel like ours with our Game of Thrones touches and crisp bar.

Demi and the team were brilliant throughout the planning and helped us with last-minute amendments without any fuss. A huge shout-out to Karen, our master of ceremonies on the day. She made the day for us, kept us right and made sure everything ran smoothly.

Thank you to everyone at The Parlour for helping make our wedding such a memorable day. We’ll always have lovely memories of celebrating there.

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.

We had the most amazing day, and couldn't have chosen a more perfect venue than The Parlour at Blagdon. From initially enquiring right through to the day after the wedding, all the staff were professional, friendly and put us at ease with the whole process and any questions we had!
We would like to give a special mention to Victoria who was there for us through every step of the big day, and made sure everything ran smoothly and calmed our nerves, she was genuinely amazing and we are so grateful!
The food was incredible, with many great comments from our guests about the canapés, wedding breakfast and pizzas in the evening.
The venue itself is just beautiful, and the layout and size was perfect for a smaller wedding like ours, as it created a more intimate feel.
Thank you so much to all at the Parlour for making our dream day happen, and giving us a day we will remember forever!

This venue was perfect. Every detail, from booking our date right up until even after the wedding we couldn’t find a single fault. They made our day amazing. The staff on the day were incredible too, all our guests were full of compliments! Wish we could do it all again!

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.

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 parlour were great every step of our planning journey. Any issues that came up were resolved in a timely manner and the staff were so attentive and kind on the day. Everything ran smoothly and we had the best wedding day!

We chose the parlour as it suited our smaller wedding with a lower minimum spend budget . The value was great food was amazing every guest was so impressed. Plentiful food and drink and the service was amazing from start to finish from the sales teams all the way to those that were there on the day . Emma and Jess were always in response to emails and calls with questions and help and made the booking process and the plan so easy . They offered great advice!

Alison and Paul on the wedding day were brilliant . Alison helped calm all our jittery nerves , effortless and professional . Always an eye on the event and us to make sure us and the guests were well looked after. The event was smooth and controlled perfectly. We had a couple guests have an accident , of their own fault, and Alison and Paul were at hand straight away even offering a lift to the hospital. Again so calming and professional. The venue is gorgeous . We know of a couple who got married there in the winter and it's just as beautiful. The chefs where amazing , food was to die for.
Honestly, if you are really wanting an intimate , no fuss , chilled but beautiful day look no further! Thank you to all involved at The Parlour, you are all worth your weight in gold !

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.

I cannot recommend the Parlour highly enough as a wedding venue. The staff, the venue, the service, everything was just perfect! I want to give a special mention to Rosanne. She was absolutely wonderful and I cannot thank her enough for making our day run smoothly. I wish we could do it all over again

My Fiancé and I fell in love with the Parlour as soon as we saw it, booked our wedding in February this year and were married in July, which was a very short time to get it all arranged, but the coordinators made everything easy for us, were always enthusiastic and helpful and were determined to make our day as special as possible. No request was too much and the day itself went flawlessly thanks in large to the managers who were on the ball, reminded us of what needed to happen at each stage and made sure we were happy and relaxed. The other staff members were also friendly and helpful throughout and the food was amazing. We really couldn't have asked for a better day and were sad when it was over! We would recommend the venue to anyone looking for a beautiful venue with a relaxed and fun atmosphere.

The team at the parlour were amazing! From start to finish they made the whole process stress free! On the day any concerns I had were dealt with promptly, the lovely lady we had on the day made sure I was okay and looked after my little girl as if she was her own ! Honestly could not recommend this place anymore, staff are lovely, polite, accommodating, friendly and the venue is GORGEOUS!

The Parlour at Blagdon was just right for our wedding. It was everything we were looking for and we knew straight away that this was the venue for us. It gave us such a cosy and magical feel.

But what truly made our day perfect was the amazing staff. They did more than we could ask for, showing great care and kindness. From easy planning to everything going smoothly on the day, every small part was handled with great attention. They knew what we needed, making our ideas come true with nice touches.

The food was absolutely delicious! Everyone loved every bite. After dinner, the party really got started, and we all danced the night away, making memories that will last forever.

Our guests were also very happy with the caring and friendly service. The Parlour at Blagdon isn't just a lovely place; it's where wishes come true, thanks to a team that really cares about making your day special. We truly suggest it for a wonderful experience.
