My partner and I had our wedding at Teybrook Orchard this week, and we all had the best day! The team in the day were amazing, and worked hard to keep the drinks flowing! Gill, our wedding planner, was amazing from start to finish, and offered support up until the end of our stay! There's nothing I can fault. The venue is stunning, the accommodations are comfortable and beautiful, and the facilities are amazing! I highly recommend looking at this location for your event!

Booked this venue for my mom’s wedding! It met all our expectations and some. The team was professional, very detailed and knowledgeable regarding events. We were assisted and guided and supported by very step of the way. You will not regret booking this venue if you want to add class to an event. It is great value for money whether you need a venue for an event or a place to be wed! Look no further. We had a truly unforgettable day! Guests still messages about how amazing the day was and how beautiful the venue was. Thank you to all who assisted us.

From the minute we enquired Emily, Eleni and Rhiannon were all amazing. Our questions were dealt with quickly and thoroughly in the lead up to the wedding and we were always made to feel special. We were given a menu tasting before the wedding and the option to try wines/champagnes and lots of food to choose from, it was a perfect pre-event for the two of us to get excited about our big day. On the wedding day itself the team delivered again, they were all so friendly but professional, we had a BBQ in the beautiful Yard area and felt like we could have been abroad! We chose to have cocktail stations dotted around the venue which were all delicious and our guests were blown away that we'd managed to find such a gem of a venue in the centre of St Albans

We had the most amazing experience at Lakeview Marquee for our wedding. From the moment we started planning, the team were so helpful, welcoming and genuinely lovely to deal with. The venue looked absolutely beautiful on the day, and the setting by the lake made everything feel really special. There was plenty of space for our guests, and we loved being able to make the venue feel personal to us. As a bride, I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Everything came together beautifully and the team made the whole day feel so much less stressful. Our guests were full of compliments and we had the most incredible day. Would 100% recommend Lakeview Marquee to any couple looking for a beautiful wedding venue with a lovely team behind it. Thank you for helping make our wedding so memorable!

We booked our wedding in December 2022 and got married in July 2024. Everything ran so smoothly—nothing was too much trouble, and we had complete freedom to shape the day exactly how we wanted it. Donatas was brilliant from start to finish. He was everything we could have hoped for in a wedding planner: attentive, supportive, and incredibly helpful both in the lead-up and on the day itself. We truly had the best day ever and would love to do it all over again! We found it to be excellent value for money, especially as it included accommodation for our guests. We wanted a private, intimate wedding by the coast, and Cley Windmill gave us that and more—it has real “WOW” factor. I loved seeing our guests' reactions to the venue/Windmill, and people are always surprised when I tell them we got married in a windmill as it not your typical wedding venue! It’s a day we will cherish forever, and we couldn’t recommend Donatas and Cley Windmill more highly as a wedding venue. Thank you for making our day and experience so incredibly special from start to finish.

We had the most incredible wedding at Woodhall Manor and strongly recommend choosing Woodhall if you are looking for a bespoke, high-end wedding in the picturesque Suffolk countryside. From our very first tour visit, we very quickly knew this was the one. The manor and its grounds offer something genuinely unique - a mix of spaces, with something incredibly special about each setting. There is the character of the manor itself, the large grounds surrounding the manor for canapés, the walled garden for the ceremony, the ballroom for the wedding breakfast with its long tables and French doors opening in the summer, and then the surprise of the beautifully styled nightclub room, which is a rare gem for a heritage venue. There's also so many fun little nooks to discover, like the Rock Bar, where we celebrated with a post-wedding drink into the early hours. Our ceremony by the Dovecote was particularly special. It was quite simply the most out-of-this-world beautiful setting to say “I do”. The atmosphere and surroundings made it feel incredibly intimate and magical, and we were able to create the indoor/outdoor mix we had hoped for, which gave the whole day a wonderful sense of flow and kept the celebrations going late into the night. We are incredibly grateful to the entire team at Woodhall. Their professionalism and care when delivering a great service really shone through. Co-ordinator Georgia, Customer Journey Manager Leanne, the DJ, Chefs Ben & Mark, the Bar and Catering team, and everyone else at Woodhall Manor delivered such a brilliant service which left many guests commenting on the slickness of how everything ran on the day. We could see the whole team working their socks off behind the scenes, but everything was handled with a smile and without a single issue. Our co-ordinator Georgia gave us complete confidence that everything was in safe hands, allowing us to properly enjoy our wedding. We also had a large number of external suppliers involved, but the Woodhall team did their utmost to communicate with them, be flexible and work together to make everything seamless. Their willingness to collaborate took a huge amount of pressure off us. This was particularly important because we had quite a few bespoke ideas, and nothing felt like it was being treated as an inconvenience. The Woodhall team were incredibly responsive and accommodating wherever they could help, and this helped us create a day that genuinely felt uniquely ours. The catering was exceptional. The wait staff were so lovely and professionally trained, with their synchronised service genuinely befitting of a high-end restaurant. The chefs Ben & Mark were brilliant in helping us develop a bespoke menu, hosting us for a private tasting and accommodating our requests. They clearly took pride in creating something personal to us, and the result was fantastic. The DJ was another highlight. We provided suggestions from our own playlist and he built an exciting mix around them, adding his own choices in a way that worked brilliantly for our guests. He really understood the atmosphere we wanted and created quite a buzz on the dance floor. The experience continued the following day, with fantastic accommodation and an amazing (and much needed!) breakfast with our guests. It was the perfect way to round off the celebrations and gave us time to relax, reflect on the day and enjoy being together before everyone headed home. What made Woodhall particularly special for us was the combination of an incredible venue and a team genuinely willing to make things happen. We never felt like we were being fitted into a standard wedding package. Instead, we were able to shape the day around our tastes, our suppliers and our ideas, with Georgia and the wider team helping us bring everything together. From the first tour to the final breakfast, every part of the experience felt considered, personal and exceptionally well executed. We received a commendable service and would highly recommend Woodhall Manor as the ideal setting for an English countryside wedding. L & P x

We recently had our UK wedding reception party at Shortmead House and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better venue. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and was the perfect setting for us to celebrate with all of our family and friends after getting married abroad. Everything looked amazing on the day and there was such a lovely atmosphere. A huge thank you to the team at Shortmead for being so helpful and welcoming throughout. Everything ran so smoothly, which meant we could just relax, enjoy ourselves and make the most of the evening. We had the best night and made so many special memories. Thank you so much for helping make our UK wedding celebration so special. We would absolutely recommend Shortmead House to anyone looking for a beautiful venue for their wedding or celebration. 🤍

We approached the KO in Oct 24 for an April 25 Wedding. we met with Paula , and from that point on they were nothing but amazing! The venue is just beautiful , and needs little vision (I was a Bride who didn't have much !!) The following 6 months everything just ran smoothly. They were constantly in contact , and they have lots of recommendations with regards DJ's , sax's etc. Food choices were all great , and everything was super easy to del with and pay . Paula and the team , Toni etc were all amazing !!!!

We simply couldn't fault our wedding here from the first contact to the end of the night, the staff were so accommodating and helpful, all our guests said the same. They really care about making your day special and go the extra mile to make it happen. The venue was ideal for our 60 guests, had a great atmosphere and wasn't crowded at all. The food was exceptional, again all our guests were telling us how much they enjoyed it. The evening was brilliant, staff worked so hard and were excellent, our DJs Fox and Braces gave us such an amazing party. We just can't thank everyone enough, five stars hands down

I appreciate I may be biased, but I really think this is the best wedding venue ever. As soon as we went to see Voewood, we absolutely fell in love with it. It was the perfect setting for the wedding of our dreams! As it is a 'dry hire', we were able to choose the caterer, the bar/drinks, entertainment, etc. to make the day truly ours. All of our guests were really blown away by how beautiful the house is, and those staying with us complimented how comfortable and stylish everything was. The Events Manager (Sarah) was so friendly and accommodating from start to finish, giving us recommendations for suppliers and ensuring everything was set up as we wanted (e.g. fairy lights, fire pits, etc.). We had an absolute blast playing rounders on the lawn on the Friday evening, having breakfast together in the kitchen in the morning, and partying till the wee hours in Pink Lloyds. We chose to have our wedding in Norfolk because we wanted to show our friends and family why we have chosen to make our life together here. After spending the weekend with us at Voewood and the beautiful surrounding area, I think they'll understand why! If you want your wedding to be uniquely 'you' and really wow your guests, Voewood is the venue for you!
