Review:
“Friern Manor is an absolutely stunning wedding venue with service that deserves more than 5 stars! From the breathtaking grounds to the elegant interiors, it was the perfect setting for our special day. The food was unforgettable—every guest commented on how delicious each dish was.
A special thank you to Madeline, who took care of everything from our very first meeting. Her attention to detail and care made the planning process stress-free, and she remembered every single request to ensure our day was flawless. Thank you, Friern Manor, for creating memories we’ll cherish forever!”

We had our wedding at Friern Manor on 02.11.2024. We opted for the “chic alternative” package and added on most of the optional street food carts. From planning to completion we had the best possible experience. The staff were absolutely incredible and such a joy to work with. Our on the day coordinators were awesome and you could see that they genuinely cared about the success of our day. The venue is absolutely stunning and our guests loved it! People are still talking about how amazing our day was. The food carts were such a hit and staggering the serving times created a constant flow of food which was perfectly executed, and greatly appreciated by our guests. The guest rooms at Friern Manor are beautiful and the breakfast the morning after our wedding was so beautifully presented. I would absolutely recommend this venue. -

I cannot recommend Friern Manor enough, our Wedding day / evening was perfect.
Madeline, Joshua and the team were on point all evening, we used the in house DJ Midnight Entertainment who was equally as good and cannot fault anything from start to finish.
Joshua and Madeline were attentive to our needs all evening and ensured that our wedding plan was perfect but that both my wife and I were at ease all night.
Thank you so much for everything and the little touches at the end of the night (I will not spoil for anyone) was personal and thoughtful.
See you for Christmas 2025. -

Friern Manor made our day so perfect and delivered above and beyond our expectations. We had an Indian wedding which had a lot of moving parts to it and they were absolutely fantastic in organising everything. The venue was absolutely beautiful and everyone loved it -

From the moment we walked into Friern Manor for our first appointment, we knew this was the venue for our wedding.
We were so impressed with the level of service, attention to detail and brilliant planning of all the team including lovely Charis.
Every little detail was carefully thought through from start to finish and the team were so helpful in guiding you through the entire process.
On the wedding day, we were blown away by how organised everything was and how supportive and kind the whole Friern Manor team were - it really put us at ease and allowed us to have the most wonderful day. Even little things like the staff asking you throughout the day if you were enjoying yourselves was such a special touch.
The food was plentiful and delicious and the venue looked stunning. Overall it was fantastic value for money.
We were so happy with our choice and would highly recommend such a great venue for your wedding. Thank you so much Friern Manor and well done.

Where do we begin, sorry this will be a long one .
We had our wedding here in March 2024 and from our first viewing with Valerie in November 2023 whom was so lovely and answered all our questions we knew we’d found our place .
The venue is so much better than the pictures. Honestly go and visit if you are thinking of getting married!
Our wedding coordinator Charis was just amazing from start to finish . Nothing was a problem and always so professional . Madeline whom assisted throughout the day was on hand for last minute questions/queries , always happy to help . And not forgetting Jordan the events manager whom was there to the bitter end . He was amazing, caring and professional .
Paul the pianist was absolutely fabulous, our guests loved the atmosphere he brought .
Paul the DJ , what can I say … what a fantastic playlist, I didn’t stop dancing and neither did our guest!
The chef , the food was amazing. Everyone commented on how lovely all the food was , how it was presented and plentiful. Well done to your kitchen staff!!!!
All remaining staff you were fabulous, the girls in the morning serving our breakfast, the bell boys , the waiters, and everyone behind the scenes honestly you have an amazing team and I hope you all know how much you make the place what it is !
They know what they are doing here and it shows!
We would do it all again tomorrow!
Thank you all for being apart of the happiest day of our lives and we will be happy to recommend all of your services in the future.
Mr and Mrs Head .
