    Outstanding day.

    I don’t even know where to begin with how incredibly amazing Nicola and her team are at Makeney Hall!

    We booked our wedding with just 10 weeks’ notice, and Nicola turned it into our dream day. Everything was absolutely perfect, and we never had to chase or ask for anything throughout the day. Her calming and reassuring presence made me feel completely at ease.

    The outdoor area for our ceremony was an absolute dream and made the day even more magical. It created the most beautiful setting, and we couldn’t have wished for anything better.

    Given how last-minute our wedding was, we were worried we might miss important details—but the day was seamless. Nicola allowed us...

    Most Amazing and Attentive!

    Makeney Hall was our last of eight venues we looked at. Right as we got there we just had that feeling that this was exactly what we were searching for! We wanted a mix of charm and history, outdoors and indoors, and a place that could hold lots of people either at the venue or at least nearby. Makeney Hall just had everything and it blended so well together, we were in love! Nicola was our wedding coordinator and she was the absolute best. I’ve not had experience with other wedding coordinators but all I can say is she answered all 200+ of our questions with clarity and thoroughness. We were in such safe hands! She held our hands...

    A Beautiful Day

    We had our wedding at Makeney Hall, the venue was beautiful, all of our guests said how stunning the outdoor ceremony area was and the grounds were beautiful. The bridal suite was spacious (room 20) with the most beautiful bathroom! However our biggest thank you must go to Jordanna as she worked so hard to ensure our wedding was exactly as we wanted. The communication was amazing, and she kept everything running perfectly on time. We didn't have to think about a single thing on the day other than enjoying ourselves as she kept everything ticking along perfectly. At our last meeting we requested different furniture in one of the rooms and this was done without question which we appreciated. Overall the team at makeney were brilliant and couldn't have done any more for us!

    Magical day

    Makeney was a beautiful venue and we couldn't have wished for more in our day. The staff all helped to make the day run smoothly, Jordana our coordinator was amazing calming me down with those last minute nerves.

    Great wedding

    One hell of a day! When we first saw makeney hall we knew this was the place to go get married, the grounds lovely!
    On the run up the wedding coordinators we're outstanding. Special mention to jordanna who absolutely smashed it out the park, she went the extra 10 miles for us and we appreciate it so much. They even managed to get the football on with out disturbing our day! It was perfect.

    Amazing venue

    We had a wonderful experience with Makeney from start to finish. They were responsive to emails leading up to the big day and we had a meeting prior to establish how everything would run.

    On the day the staff were fantastic (Lisa, Luke, Ben, Jade, Molly, Freya, Simone, Amy and Ben) with special thanks to Nicola the wedding co-ordinator who was absolutely incredible.

    So many people commented on the beauty of the venue, quality of food and how well organised the day was. We got married in the woodland gardens and the atmosphere and beauty of the service is something I will never forget.

    Thank you Makeney for making our wedding day spectacular.
