Tewinbury - the most perfect venue for our absolutely perfect wedding

We could not be happier that we chose Tewinbury for our wedding this August (2024). It was the first and only venue we saw, and we fell in love with it instantly; it had everything we were looking for and we needed to look no further. We're so glad we didn't; Tewinbury was the most gorgeous, perfect venue for the wedding we envisioned. They were able to work with our budget to make everything we wanted possible, and we had many visits there in the year leading up to it to make sure everything was in place - we were never denied a meeting which really helped us feel at ease, especially when our planner left n the lead up to the wedding. We had three days at Tewinbury in total, so our family and friends were able to enjoy the day before and after with us, and this really made the experience extra special, especially as the rooms are so gorgeous, and so convenient for the barn. We got married in the Tythe Barn, which was just what we wanted, and had our drinks reception on the terrace. Luckily the weather as great so we were able to use the terrace and alongside the river throughout the event which was so lovely. Our co-ordinator Charlotte was an absolute dream on the day - calm, organised, and made sure every element of the wedding was implemented to absolute perfection. Everything ran completely smoothly, looked absolutely beautiful, and I - a total control freak - managed to completely relinquish control as I felt in such safe hands. We chose a buffet for our evening meal and everyone has commented on how lovely the food was, as were the canapés, and there was plenty of drink to go round. We are so grateful to Charlotte and her team, and the absolutely gorgeous venue that is Tewinbury, for the magical wedding of our dreams. We couldn't have wished for more.

Stunning Venue with Exceptional Service

The venue for our wedding was absolutely stunning, and I was blown away by the setup when I arrived. The food was amazing, and we received numerous compliments from our guests. However, what truly makes this venue special is the incredible staff.

I want to extend a special thank you to Ethan, our wedding coordinator. He was very organized, responsive, and did an amazing job on the day. From the moment I stepped onto the venue, I didn't have to worry about anything.

Additionally, we were allowed to set up bits and pieces the day before, and I want to say a special thank you to Salem and Charlotte. They went above and beyond to help us with the setup, making everything perfect.

The genuine helpfulness and warmth of the staff made our wedding day even more special. I can't recommend this venue enough for anyone looking to have a truly memorable event.

Thank you Ethan and entire team for making our day unforgettable!

Wedding - Would not recommend

We had our wedding here this year (2023), and even though the venue is beautiful, unfortunately, the staff really let us down. The handover from our wedding coordinator to the manager present on the day was terrible and all the wrong information was given over.
The seating plan was completely wrong, and the layout of the room was not what we had asked for and detailed months prior.
We had a bar tab, but the bar staff charged our guests for their drinks, again even though this was clearly stated in writing and over the phone in the planning stages that there was to be a bar tab.
The wedding breakfast was good, but unfortunately the evening food was not edible. Futher more, most of our guests stayed at the hotel to which breakfast is included. When at breakfast the following morning they ran out of most of the food items.
When these issues were presented to the Events Manager, Lauren, we did not get a sorry or any kind of ownership for the mistakes that had taken place and Lauren actually didn't respond to our emails of calls to ensure the issues were resolved. Eventually, we had to get the General Manager involved, who did respond and resolve the issues, but unfortunately, overall not a great experience for the money that we paid to have our wedding there and nothing could fix the mistakes made on the day.

Wonderful day at a wonderful venue

A big thank you to Sam for helping us plan our Tewinbury wedding, and to Kaika and team for ensuring it all went seamlessly on the day although I'm sure behind the scenes there was a lot more going on than we realised! They made it easy. The little touches will stick in our minds - like finding wedding cake in our room, keeping dinner warm for a guest on baby duty etc - as well as the warmth and friendliness of the staff. Everyone complimented the food - and people loved the venue so much one friend has already booked to come back, and more than one group of friends have asked if we can come back for a reunion next year.

A huge thank you to the Tewinbury team for all your hard work planning the wedding and the execution on the day.

Exactly what we wanted

We were able to have the reception we wanted, tweaking packages and plans to make it work for us. The team were very helpful and positive, nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend.

Underwhelming

Unprofessional and poor service provided. Rude staff, late on timings, let down.

Everything was perfect!

Our day was everything we could ever have imagined it to be and more. We wanted a calm and intimate wedding and that’s exactly what we got. From start to finish we felt welcomed and at home, and all of the staff made everything feel effortless.

We are so pleased we chose to marry at Tewinbury. The venue was beautiful, we had so many compliments on the food, and the drinks were superb too. It genuinely was the happiest day of our lives. Wish we could do it all again.
