The Perfect Wedding @ Godwick

Me and my partner booked Godwick after a chance visit in January 2023. The location and venue were gorgeous, the staff were so welcoming and kind, we were sold very quickly.

Once we'd booked, the team were excellent at communicating with us throughout the process, making sure we were prepared, comfortable and fully in control before the big day.

In the run up to our wedding weekend, we had regular calls with Jenni, who helped to structure our day properly and get everything arranged. Our on the day manager, Debbie-Lee was an absolute star - so personal, attentive and always looking for that one extra thing to make me and my partner feel special. We thank the whole Godwick team for their fantastic service and beautiful venue, but Debbie-Lee really wowed us all, so particular shout-out to her!

We also had the privilege to stay at the on-site accommodation for the entire weekend of our wedding alongside our family - we adored it - beautiful vistas, fun games nights and amazing memories throughout the weekend. I cannot recommend this venue and wonderful team enough!

Thank you Godwick!

Our wedding at Godwick

Choosing Godwick as our wedding venue was the best decision we could have made. We loved absolutely everything about the barn and the accommodation. Hannah provided us with such valuable support and really went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly both in the lead up to the wedding and on the day. She was a pleasure to work with and made us feel confident that our day would be a success. It was such a highlight to be able to have our families and closest friends be able to stay at the venue with a particular highlight being the bridal party being able to use the Stables to get ready on the day and be able to fully debrief with everyone on the Sunday! The Great Barn was a magical venue and totally exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful to the entire team at Godwick for enabling us to have such an incredible wedding day!

Perfect elopement at Godwick

The most special day. Just us and our 2 children. It was so magical, enjoyed every moment. I’m so so happy we decided to have it at Godwick hall, The room was perfect, very cosy and intimate on a gloomy autumnal day. The staff were so lovely and welcoming, made us feel right at home.

Beautiful and easy going

The elopement venue, The Drawing Room, was stunning and perfect for a small elopement. We stayed in the Norfolk Horn Shepards hut which was cosy, warm and peaceful - perfect for our pre and post elopement stay. Only which we’d stayed longer!

What a day!!!

We can’t thank the team at Godwick for hosting our wedding. Nothing was too much of an ask and everything was handled professionally and efficiently. The venue is just stunning, and the team are super flexible with what suppliers you can use which is often not the case with many other venues. Accommodation is simply gorgeous, and housed all our family. We feel super lucky to have had the experience we had with our family and friends. Wish we could do it all again!

Outstanding

Godwick made our dream come true.
Everything was flawless from the planning to the day.
Godwick team included us throughout and made us feel calm and organised. On the day, they ensured that same calmness remained.
The venue and accommodation speaks for itself and if I had a choice I would’ve never left.
I can wait to go back and relive the memories.

Pure Magic

Where do we start about this incredible venue and superb team?

We were completely taken with the Barn and its unique surroundings when we had our first meeting with James and after taking a look around Godwick Hall, the stables and shepherds huts there was no question that we knew this was where we wanted to get married and it did not disappoint.

Every guest who celebrated with us was blown away by how beautiful the venue was. Our family and friends who were able to stay with us and share all the accommodation on site had the most amazing long weekend which was the perfect way to extend the celebrations.

Our event co-ordinator, Megan, couldn't have been more helpful and supportive throughout the whole process and under Megan's supervision the day was completely perfect and we felt so lucky it was ours!

We will be recommending Godwick to anyone we can, not just for a wedding but for a special and memorable weekend away and we so hope to be back soon to relive the amazing memories we made.

A huge thank you to the whole Godwick team who made everything so special for us. We couldn't be more grateful.

What an incredible venue!

Such an incredible day and venue. The entire experience with Godwick was positive, calm and thought-through. The staff are fabulous - especially James the owner, as well as Debbie-Lee one of the Event Managers. Always on hand to help, nothing is too much trouble. It felt personal to us the whole weekend, whilst showcasing the fact that they are experts at what they do - creating great weddings and making people very very happy! Thanks Godwick team :-)

Above and beyond

We highly recommend the elopement wedding. It was a wonderful experience.

We also can’t thank Hannah enough for helping us locate one of the rings in the grass with a metal detector when it was dropped. She was a life saver!

Thank you to all the team, what a wonderful bunch of people.
