Gemma B. Sent on 10/06/2023Just WOW, perfect day!
We had a list of 10 venues to visit but the minute we viewed Southdowns we knew it was the one for us! To have the whole space just for us was fantastic.
The whole process was so slick. No question too silly, and everyone so helpful.
The staff were just amazing, nothing was too much trouble and full of smiles. Becky was fantastic and smoothed over any minor issues. If you want a stress free wedding with everything included, this is for you!
The venue is stunning, we had our dream outdoor ceremony and it was so emotional.
The food was gorgeous and so much of it. We had hot canapés with Pimms on the lawn, then Afternoon Tea and then a Pizza buffet later. They created our perfect vision and accommodated so many dietary requests.
The day was everything we dreamed of & our guests were blown away! -

Our special day at Southdowns Manor was amazing from the first moment! As a recently engaged couple we weren’t sure where to start. We were wowed by their brochure and the attention to detail that was taken. This lead to us booking a show round on a whim! Which turned out to be the best decision we made. Karis took the time to show us around the manor, explaining the space would be exclusively ours and answering every question we had, even silly ones about cutlery being included, however not so silly as I found out afterwards when speaking to friends. After this chat we chose a 2 day package which meant we had the venue the night before the wedding and the morning after (up until 10AM) as just ours! We also loved the venue so much we booked one of their special offers which meant we had to plan the wedding in the space of 9 months! Karis was right it could be done and our family was there.
The 2 day package was the best choice for us I have no faults on the execution of the wedding day and any special requests we had. Becky, Rob and Shannon looked after us spectacularly and managed to resolve any little blips that came up (Pain au Jams 😉) Being able to stay the night before meant we were able to spend calm time with the team to set up all of our decor together and fix any little snags. It also made me feel calmer as I knew our son was happy and settled in the space.
Overall the day itself was amazing, the ceremony space being changed from indoors to outside at the last minute. The food, the team, and the general vibe were excellent. If we could do it all again we would! Our day was brilliant and the venue was stunning.
Additionally the team were happy to work alongside any vendor I booked. Such as surprise mini golf for my Husband and that was no problem, the staff kept him busy till it was time for “the reveal” and he spent most of his time before the ceremony trying to get a round in! We also booked Delicious Dreams ice creams who were able to be set up in the conservatory space as it was getting quite cold in the evening.
Seriously book Southdowns manor if you are looking for a private but spacious venue, with beautiful outdoor space, wonderful food and an amazing team behind them! -

Took the stress out of everything, better than we ever could have imagined from the moment we walked in to the moment we walked out. 2 day weddings are the way forward would highly recommended to everyone. -

Southdowns Manor is an amazingly fairytale like wedding venue that has the perfect location. Everything about it was just great - the staff were attentive - nothing ever too much of an ask, the rooms were gorgeous and I would recommend this venue to anyone thinking of getting married. -

We were lucky enough to have beautiful weather so the ceremony took place outside, but a wet weather plan was in place. The staff were excellent at keeping me on time for the ceremony and made the day run seamlessly. Food was delicious and there were plenty of chances to taste the food in the planning process. A wide variety of beautiful backdrops for photos. -

Beyond Our Expectations
From the first time we visited Southdowns Manor we knew it would be hard to beat!
Organising the wedding was made effortless with the help of the of the team and we knew we were in good hands.
Our big day went without a hitch, and with their attention to detail and our vision it was the most perfect day! -

Very flexible, we ended up being late to an open day but they stayed for us and still gave us the same experience, we were sold then . The wedding day itself was amazing and ran so smoothly, love love love -
