We had our wedding at Chalkney Water Meadow, and it was everything we hoped for and more. The relaxed, festival-style vibe was exactly what we were looking for, and the setting couldn’t have been more perfect. Surrounded by nature, with a beautiful open space and a laid-back atmosphere, it felt like our own little world for the weekend. We stayed in the beautiful on-site lodges, which were a peaceful and comfortable retreat before and after the big day. Our guests absolutely loved the glamping experience—everyone raved about how fun and unique it was to spend the weekend in bell tents under the stars. It really added to the atmosphere and made the whole celebration feel more like a mini festival than just a one-day event. From start to finish, Holly was absolutely incredible. She was calm, kind, and completely on top of everything—guiding us through the planning process and making the entire weekend run smoothly. We didn’t have to worry about a thing, which meant we could truly enjoy the moment.Holly’s communication with us was absolutely incredible,her knowledge and advice was outstanding and she exceeded our expectations.Holly was instrumental in a perfect weekend. The staff at the venue were also amazing—friendly, helpful, and always one step ahead. Every detail was thought through, and it all came together so naturally. We’ve had so many compliments from our guests about the vibe, the setting, and how well the day flowed. If you’re after a unique, relaxed wedding in a beautiful location with an exceptional team behind it, we can’t recommend Chalkney Water Meadow and Holly highly enough.

The Minories

We recently had our very intimate wedding at The Minories. It was everything we wanted…….a beautiful romantic setting in the idyllic foley with all its ancient Italian looking charm, a mixture of rustic & romantic the perfect backdrop for any photographer! We were able to decorate it to our personal taste & our guests, although few, were able to roam the grounds before the ceremony began, & after the event we had plenty of time to take advantage of the grounds with plenty of photo opportunities. Many thanks to all involved especially Sally…..we recommend The Minories if your looking for a unique romantic wedding venue big or small 👰👨🏻‍⚖️
