More than we could have asked for

We got married last weekend with the ceremony at a local Dorking church and then reception and wedding breakfast at Burford Bridge and we couldn't have asked for more.

Kiki and her team are just fantastic, communication is clear, well-timed and stress-free. All questions were answered in a timely manner and we had a full understanding of the process and timings as we stepped into the day; we were truly able to be the guests of honour rather than the hosts as everything was taken care of!

Leading up to the big day, we met the chef, had a fab tasting session, and met the ops manager who recommended the most fantastic red wine which hadn't yet been added to the menu but knowing how delicious it was ensured we had a glass for our tasting - very fortunate as this is the wine we ended up choosing to accompany our meal. I don't think we would have received these personal touches and attention to detail from any other venue.

Kiki liaised with all the suppliers for the wedding so again this was 100% stress-free for us. They laid the tables, placed all of the favours, toys for the younger guests and place cards exactly as planned so when we walked in the evening before we rested easy knowing everything was in place. I'm not sure if you can put a price on how great it feels to sleep well the night before!

We also had a huge room to get ready in the morning of the wedding, loads of room for me, my mum, my bridesmaids and two hair and makeup artists. They even brought through fresh fruit, breakfast sandwiches, fresh coffee and tea to order etc. nothing was too much trouble.

We ended up staying for three nights (the night before the wedding to the night after) as did family who had travelled from further afield and everyone was delighted with the hotel, location and services.

We can't thank Kiki the team enough for making our day as smooth and stress-free as it was. What a weekend! 100% recommend Burford Bridge.

Just an amazing perfect day

We had our wedding day at the Burford Bridge Hotel in the Tithe Barn. Kiki and her team made sure our day went without a hitch. Special thanks to her and Manny and all the staff at the Burford. The barn was decorated by To Have and To Hire and you could hear the gasps as the guests entered. We had so many compliments on our venue the decorations and the food. We really did have the perfect day ❤️

Burford bridge hotel

Just wanted to say thank you so much for our wedding on Sunday 8th.
It was the best day and everything went incredibly smoothly.

We couldn’t be more grateful for your help and everything you and your team did on the day to make it as special as it was.

Can we just give a mention to the DJ provided also, he was outstanding.
Played everything we requested, even some unusual and rare tracks.
He found them and played them without a problem, he was also great with Me, Gary and the guests.
So thank you for that.

Thanks again for a really special day.

All the best with the future.

Holly & Gary.

Wow from Mr & Mrs Middleton

My husband & I just got married here and it really was our fairy tale wedding that we will never forget.
The place is beautiful and the surrounding area makes it perfect for photos especially when using Ether Events for their great selection of decorations.
The wedding packages were great value, it included so much for your money.
The food is top quality and everyone said how tasty and well portioned it was.
A massive thank you to Eleanor the wedding planner and all the staff their that made our day the best. You couldn’t ask for a better place to get your happily Ever After.

5 Star Wedding Venue

We got married at Burford Bridge Hotel last month (October 2024) and had the best day ever thanks to the Wedding Coordinator Kiki and the fantastic team.

Why we would recommend Burford Bridge:
- THE VENUE: Is in 'An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty'. The surrounding area is stunning and the hotel has beautiful gardens overlooking Box Hill. The Tithe Barn is a gorgeous, rustic setting for the day. The Tithe Barn also has its own bar and private areas for wedding guests. There is a large getting ready room for the bridal party to use on the morning of the wedding, and the staff surprised us by bringing up breakfasts and drinks for everyone!
- THE HOTEL: We wanted a barn wedding, and having the hotel on site too was a real bonus. Our wedding was on Saturday, but we stayed at the hotel for 3 nights (Friday, Saturday, Sunday). Many of our family/friends had to travel to attend our wedding, and they also stayed at the hotel. The rooms are spacious and there's a good breakfast in the mornings. Having all of the set up/wedding ceremony and reception/hotel rooms etc all in one place took the stress out of the day.
- THE TEAM: The whole team at Burford Bridge were so accommodating. They were flexible and nothing was too much trouble. The communication was great: from booking, to the delicious menu tasting, answering my thousands of questions via email! The staff put many personal touches into our day.
Special thanks to Kiki and Mary.
- THE DAY: The day went off without a hitch, thanks to the staff taking care of everything. They ensured the day ran smoothly from start to finish, which meant we could relax and fully enjoy our day.
We would 100% recommend Burford Bridge Hotel.

Absolutely fantastic, they really made the day

All of the staff were so accommodating, nothing seemed like to much trouble. We stayed the night before the wedding and from the moment we turned up everyone was so helpful. On the wedding day from breakfast in the morning all of the staff went out of their way to make sure that everything we needed was available.
Kiki was great at making sure everyone and everything was where it needed to be. It was all beautifully arranged as I had imagined. We are so grateful to all of the staff, and appreciate all of the work they did to help make our day so spectacular!

Magical day

Our wedding exceeded our expectations and proved absolutely magical on the day. Burford Bridge was the perfect venue, with great food, plenty of room, an amazing setting and great staff.

Kiki in particular was amazing. She went above and beyond both before the day and on the wedding day itself. She was really helpful, attentive and patient with us!

Unforgettable wedding day

We can’t thank Burford Bridge hotel enough for hosting our wedding reception on 13th April this year. Our wedding was truly perfect from start to finish. We had the Rose package which was really good value for money with lots included. The food was delicious, the wines and Prosecco were really lovely, and the service on the day was fantastic. All the staff went above and beyond to ensure we could relax and enjoy our day, and so many of our guests commented on how flexible and accommodating the staff were. Kiki and Sarah made sure all our requests for the day were noted, Will the manager on the day was really helpful and organised, and Manny who was in charge of the table service was so kind and professional. We honestly couldn’t have wished for a better day. The barn is so beautiful and atmospheric, and the outside space is so lovely too - we were lucky enough to have beautiful weather and we spent quite a lot of time outside getting photos and having drinks etc. Thanks again everyone who helped make our day amazing!

Superb venue, superb wedding

We got married at this venue in April. The whole day was brilliant. Eleanor (Coodinator) was very attentive during the pre wedding meetings and everything we disussed was done. The food for the wedding breakfast was glorious. Compliments to the chef!. On the day, Eleanor was always buzzing around, making sure everything went perfectly. As the weather was good, some beatiful photo's were taken in the garden area and by the on site pool. Would highly recommend this venue

Beautiful November Wedding!

Eleanor and the team at Burford Bridge were incredible! They listened to exactly what we wanted, were flexible when it came to our requests and the day ran so smoothly! We have had several compliments and comments about how well the day went and how impressed people were with the service and professionalism of staff. The barn is stunning and has so many different ways to style it. The barn has its own barn and entrance, separate to the main hotel, which keeps the event private and contained. This was perfect for us too as it was a rainy autumn day so this meant all our guests could stay inside and move easily from the bar to the barn. There are plenty of seating options in the barn and space! We had 130 guests for the meal and 50 extra evenings guests which fitted comfortably. The food was incredible and service was quick. The evening buffet was yummy and there was plenty of food for all guests. I would recommend to anyone looking for a wedding reception venue!
