Amazing Day!

Oh Grangefields! This place was everything and more! We had the absolute best day!
When a venue says don’t worry we will take care of it, you think okay that’s good, but when Grangfields say it, it’s absolutely true! Nothing was too much the day ran so smoothly.
Each and every staff member was amazing! They all looked like they loved working there! Nothing was too much for them! A special shout out to Victoria and Tim, you guys made our day so much more special! Thank you so much for being apart of it!
All of our guests were raving about this venue they couldn’t believe the beauty! And how much space everyone had. The fact that all the rooms are separate was just perfect!
I’m so sad it’s over cause I just want to do it all again! But we will 100% be back to see you again! Thank you Grangefields and all of the team!

Truly Stunning!

Truly Stunning!
When we look back, we can’t see ourselves getting married anywhere else. From start to finish the team at Grangefields have been truly amazing. The venue is breathtaking and you can feel the magic in the air just from walking around during your visit. I’ll admit, this venue was over budget for us but once seeing it in person we fell in love!
Wedding planning was so so easy with the team! Any questions or updates were answered within hours. Their online portal system gave us a direct line of communication so there was no waiting for meetings to have questions answered.
Our wedding day was truly magical. This venue decorates itself and we didn’t have to do much to make our day perfect! We booked all our suppliers through Grangefields wedding fayre. All were familiar with the venue, making our day run so smoothly!
The staff are incredible, all the staff behind the bar were dancing with guests. Nick and Jade, our directors were amazing! They talked us through the day and were checking up on us constantly. My drink was never empty!
Overall, our day couldn’t have been any better. Grangefields helped us create special memories and it is a truly magical place, with the best team.

Amazing venue, food and people!

Grangefields is an absolutely beautiful venue, the food is delicious (plus you get plenty of it) and the friendly staff go above and beyond to make sure they give you the day you’ve always wished for. The online portal makes the planning process so straightforward. Along with this you have an online chat which makes it really easy to send any questions you have day or night. The staff are always quick to respond and are very accommodating. We cannot recommend Grangefields enough, they gave us the wedding we had dreamed of.

Exceeded all expectations

Our wedding day with Grangefields was absolutely perfect, we could not be any happier with how the day went - everything was incredible, from the food and drink, to the service, the support from the day and night managers, the gorgeousness of the venue..everything!
We have had so many glowing reviews of the day from our guests, so many people said it was the best wedding food they had ever eaten, incredible service from staff and the venue itself (particularly the ceremony room!) blew everyone away.
I can’t thank the Grangefields team enough, particularly Jess, Lucy and Tim, for all their help in the planning process, answering all our questions very promptly along the way and giving us the best day of our lives, we want to do it all again!! Can’t wait to get all our photos and re-live it all.
Thanks so much again, Lotty & Dan xxx

Amazing. Hands down, the best wedding venue

We got married at Grangefields in July 2023 and can quite honestly say it was the best day of our lives. The venue is absolutely stunning, but it’s the amazing team that really make this place so special.

Are you honestly still debating whether or not to get married at Grangefields? Book it already!

If we could give 10 stars we would!

The best day ever! We cannot fault the staff at Grangefields. The first time we looked around they weren't pushy about booking with them. We knew as soon as we arrived this would be our venue, its beautiful. All through the planning process they were contactable through the online portal with any questions we had. The day was prefect. We dropped things off on the morning and they made the rooms look amazing with the décor I had provided. On the day it was the little things for us, a member of staff was assigned to us to make sure we always had drinks and canapes on hand. When we went to have photos I asked Lucy where was and before I knew it she was there with fresh canapes for us to enjoy. The guests were blown away by the venue and the food (especially the roast potato's!) No one will leave hungry. We had pizzas in the evening, some guests had dietary requirements which wasn't a problem as the pizzas are made fresh on site. They boxed up for people to take home with them. Massive thank you to all the staff on our big day. Highly recommend booking a feast night to try their food, you will not be disappointed. If we could give more stars we would! They deserve 10! Special mention to Lucy & Andrea who were the managers for the day. They really did go above and beyond for us on the day we can not thank you enough for making our day so special. Everything ran smoothly thanks to them. See you soon for a feast night. Mr and Mrs Brady

The most perfect wedding venue!

Andrew and I became Mr & Mrs Price at Grangefields on 2nd July 2023. We looked at a lot of venues but this one stood out to us immediately. Not only was the venue beautiful, with the show kitchen and the almost "chapel" vibes in the barn (it was a none-religious ceremony, but we wanted somewhere that felt spiritual), but the staff were warm and welcoming in a way we didnt experience anywhere else. They were in communication with us the whole duration (15 months) and were happy to answer all of our questing, both big and small. On the day, they were attentive and always nearby whenever required, and helped quide us through the day. They were basically providing us with wedding planners, without inflating the price to include this. They are experts in their field. We would recommend Grangefields in a heartbeat and really feel like they took the stress out of the planning process for us.

The feast menu was absolutely to-die-for, with multiple guests telling us it was the best English wedding they had been to, with the best food without doubt. The external grounds were pristine, the lighting was perfect inside and out, creating a lovely ambience throughout the whole day.

A huge thank you to the whole Grangefields team, and a special shout out to Lucy for being our main liaison - she was brilliant!

Indian Wedding

We had the most wonderful wedding day all thanks to Tim and his team at Grangefields. The venue was beautiful, the team was FAB and the wedding was all we wanted it to be! Everything and everyone were so amazingly wonderful- what a dream they are !
Tim was the most amazing wedding planner and accommodated all our needs as we had a very different setup due to the wedding being a traditional Indian wedding.
Everything from the food, the decor, the staff, and the venue was perfect!! The wedding day would not have been what it was without our Grangefeild team and we will be eternally grateful !

Wedding 8.9.24

Wow, we are on a massive high from our wedding on Sunday. As soon as we saw Grangefields we knew it was completely for us and we had to book it. From day one all the staff were just brilliant and the whole process was seamless. Tim and the team kept in touch regularly and always replied to questions promptly. The venue itself is just stunning, but also very cool and edgy, which really translates through photos. The only negative is that it’s over, we just want to do it all again!!! All of our guests loved it.. Thank you to everyone at Grangefields for making our dream and vision come to life. It really was the best day ever…x

Beautiful venue, great team and amazing food!

We had such a special day celebrating our wedding at Grangefields! It's such a beautiful venue and throughout the entire planning process, the staff were amazing! The team were incredible on the day and coordinated everything which meant we could relax and enjoy our day with our family and friends. All the food we tasted at the feast night was delicious so it was difficult to choose but our guests are still raving about the chicken! I would definitely recommend this venue.
