We had our wedding reception in July 2024 at Winchester Cathedral and we cannot thank the team enough for making this day simply amazing. From our initial tour Jack explained every fine detail of the venue and the bespoke offerings that they had, we were incredibly surprised to find out that you are able to have a Wedding Blessing at Winchester Cathedral! The whole team went above and beyond to look after everyone and we have had such lovely comments from all of our guests on how well looked after they were. Highly recommend this venue, we will cherish all our memories of our special day for the rest of our lives

Jack and the team at the Cathedral Refectory were incredible and our day just wouldn’t have been as good if we’d gone anywhere else. Jack’s attentive, caring, communicative, listens and reassures at every step of the way. His team are hardworking, kind and full of smiles, which really added to our day 😊 The venue is just WOW - every single guest commented on how stunning the backdrop of the day was; it’s the hidden gem of Winchester! Have your wedding at Winchester Cathedral Venues and work with Jack, you really won’t regret it; in fact, they will exceed your expectations and make your dreams come true. The only downside is we won’t get to work with Jack and the stunning venue again (unless we can find a reason to have another huge party!)

We couldn’t fault Jack and his team on our wedding day. From our first enquiry to our dream day, everything was perfect. Nothing was too much for Jack and he made us feel at ease throughout the months leading up to it. We had no wedding stress, we thought it was too good to be true! Our wedding day then came and we were blown away. It was everything we dreamed of. Jack was there on the day to make sure everything went as planned and our guest were full of compliments on how attentive he and the rest of the staff were. The food was incredible too. We couldn’t fault anything. We are already thinking about what other event we could host here! Thank you again Jack and the team!

We have only the best things to say about our experience with Winchester Cathedral Venues. From our very first enquiry, the team could not have been more helpful, making time at short notice to show us round, and being patient with us as it took time to finalise the date. Jack was both laid back and super-organised - we felt in safe hands throughout and had a wonderful day. The food was also sensational.

We are back after a fantastic Honeymoon! A huge thank you from Cam and me to you guys and your entire team for making our day so fantastic and run so smoothly. You really looked after us so incredibly well we are so grateful.

We certainly did have a fantastic day & couldn't have wished for anything more.
Thank you so much for all the preparation and work yourself, Rob and the team put into it over the weeks and making the day as special as it was.
Extra thanks to Rob for helping with the TV and his laptop for our video/photos.

Thank you so much for all of your hard work on our Wedding day ! Our day was perfect thanks to you ! The day was truly seamless. We were so relaxed and you took care of everything. You are both such lovely people, anyone who is lucky enough to have you organise and host their wedding is extremely lucky. Thank you!

We wanted to get married in the city which we live and to be perfectly honest there weren’t a huge amount of options to suit our numbers and budget. We had our ceremony at the Guildhall but with no outside space it wasn’t the option for us when it came to our reception. The Wessex Centre is completely private and the use of the Undercroft as an additional space should the weather turn made it perfect for us and our guests.
The food was brilliant, they completely surpassed our expectations. The food tasting was great and a good opportunity to meet Rob who was going to be running things on the day. He made us feel at ease and nothing was too much trouble.
In the run up to the wedding, Lindsey was great at promptly answering all my questions. We arrived the day before the wedding to add a few finishing touches to the room. The team had already set up our fairy lights, bunting and tables and everything looked great.
On the day it was no trouble that we arrived a little earlier than planned. The staff were great at catering for everyone’s needs. They even kept the food warm of one of our guests with a small child who had to take the child off during the middle of the meal.
The day ran really smoothly and despite the odd rain shower we were able to enjoy the inside and outside space at the Wessex Centre. Our guests all commented on what a beautiful setting it was and how lovely the food had been. We would thoroughly recommend booking your wedding at the Wessex Centre.

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and your team for our amazing wedding this weekend. Everything went so smoothly and Zsolt, Rob and all your staff could not have been more helpful. The food was delicious too. We can’t thank you all enough and are still smiling from everything.

We had a fantastic day everything ran very smoothly and the staff worked hard to make it a really great day. In the run up to the day the organisers were really helpful, flexible and provided ideas when needed. It is a real gem and a fantastic location. The food was delicious and the chef was flexible in order to accommodate everyone's needs. The day exceeded our expectations and it was definitely everything we wanted and more. Thank you so much to everyone for our perfect day.

Well, what a fab time we had and in no small part to the staff in the cathedral venue, especially bearing in mind, there was a change of catering company, and a change of staff, but Lindsey, and Rob made sure they had done all their homework to ensure that we had a wonderful, and memorable day. So much effort was put into it by the staff, even the night before with 6 of us sorting out the bunting for half an hour! On the day, they all made sure that the Wessex Centre looked fabulous. The cathedral grounds, and venue are, of course, beautiful, but it wouldn’t matter if the staff didn’t offer such dedicated service, but they surpassed themselves. We were both so happy, and pleased with the day. Everybody who came thoroughly enjoyed it, and there were compliments galore about everything. The venue, the food, everything.
I would thoroughly recommend going to the cathedral events for your wedding. They will listen to you, advise, and make sure that you are happy with everything. It couldn’t have been better. Thank you so much to all!

Our wedding day was just perfect - the venue, the staff and the ambience all around was amazing - we could not have wished for more from the day and you delivered beyond our expectations!

"Thank you so very much for being an amazing star. You really were terrific from start to finish and made the whole wedding experience stress-free and superb. We loved every aspect of our day and are literally on 'cloud 10'. We have heaps of good feedback for your team – food, service, attention to detail all simply fantastic. Thank you so much for all your support over the last 12 months in helping us plan and deliver the most fabulous wedding."
