Lavinia & Andrew wedding reception 1/11/2025
Thank you all for making everything so perfect
Lavinia & Andrew Williams
Perfect venue for the best day
We were originally meant to marry in 2023 but when our daughter made a surprise appearance we had to postpone, and Thoresby were super flexible and accommodating!
Flash forward to 2025, we felt in very safe hands with Natasha answering all questions / queries very promptly. On the day things went really well (at least from my perspective) - if anything did go wrong I don’t know about it! They also sorted things before I even had a chance to think about them, such as background music between the harpist & dj and also cleaning up any spillages.
The whole day was perfect for us and we could just enjoy the day because we were so looked after by all of the staff. Highly recommend!
The Wedding of our DREAMS✨
From the very beginning, everything was so well organised. The team took care of every detail and made the entire planning process feel seamless and stress-free. On the day itself, everything ran like clockwork, allowing us to relax and just enjoy the celebrations.
The catering was absolutely exceptional. Not only was the food delicious and beautifully presented, but the team went above and beyond to cater to all of our requests and dietary needs. Our guests are still talking about how wonderful the BBQ & Cheeseboard was!
We feel so grateful to have celebrated our wedding here—it was everything we hoped for and more. We couldn’t recommend this venue highly enough.

The perfect wedding venue

We had our ceremony in the secret garden and it was absolutely perfect, the sun was shining and it was the most stunning location, we loved this option when we looked round Thoresby as we’re very much outdoorsy people!
The Riding Hall took our breath away when we came to view back in 2023 and every single time thereafter, just stunning. We had so many comments on how beautiful The Riding Hall and grounds are from our guests.
The staff at Thoresby were so helpful in keeping us calm and taking all the stress away for us. Natasha was fantastic with making sure all our questions were answered!
We not only chose Thoresby for our venue because it’s so stunning but also because we were allowed our dog to be there all day with us, and our horse! My horse walked with me part way down the aisle in the secret garden (I bet most venues wouldn’t offer this!) and our dog was there throughout the ceremony too. They were so flexible with this and we are so grateful as this really made our day.
The price was also pretty much unbeatable anywhere else for us! For the amount of guests we wanted/decor/add ons, we really couldn’t get this anywhere else for what we paid! We also added on the option of garden games (this kept all the children, and adults entertained!).
So, we would 100% recommend Thoresby for any future couples, fantastic communication from Natasha, staff were so helpful, super flexible, great value for money and we had the best day ever!!
Best day ever!
We recently had our wedding at Thorseby Riding Hall and it was absolutely perfect. The venue really is outstanding and has that “wow factor” that you want for your big day.
The Secret Garden is also stunning, and perfect for you and your guests to relax but also for the kids to run around and enjoy themselves!
Our guests (and us!) were stunned by the magical feel that Thoresby Riding Hall radiates. We had so many comments on how stunning the venue was, in particular the fairy lights which are SO photogenic and worked beautifully with our whimsical woodland theme.
Leading up to the big day, everything flowed seamlessly with the venue and the organisation and communication with Natasha was great. Quick responses and very accommodating. On the day, Natasha's flexibility and helpfulness made everything run smoothly, and the whole team went above and beyond to help us fully enjoy our celebration.
Thoresby holds a special place in our hearts as my mum’s memorial is at Sarah’s Woods. When booking our wedding we enquired about having photos taken at Sarah’s Woods, Natasha immediately sorted this for us and on the day she arranged for a team member to drive us up to the location. These photos mean a lot to us so we are especially grateful to Natasha for sorting this for us!
We would highly recommend Thoresby to any couples looking for a magical wedding venue. Thanks to Natasha and the team at Thoresby, we had a wedding to be proud of and will cherish forever!
