Reviews for Salomons Estate
Best Day of my Life
Our day of coordinator, Leah, was absolutely lovely. Not only is she attentive, but she is kind, thoughtful, and incredibly detail-oriented, making every part of the process seamless and stress-free. I can’t be more grateful to have had her by my side.
The venue decorated for the holidays just days before our wedding, providing us with beautiful added decor and magic! My friends and family love the many rooms and areas to explore, including the museum, gardens, bar, terrace, etc.
We opted for afternoon tea for our wedding breakfast and pizza for late night bites and our guests absolutely loved it! They offered options for our friends with gf, veggie, etc dietary requirements, and people raved about their meals! They have options for everyone.
Between the beautiful venue, genuinely lovely staff, and delicious food and drink, I cannot be more grateful to Leah and everyone at Salomons. I got to live out my fairytale dream wedding here, and I am so excited for every couple who chooses to do the same. You will have the best day of your lives.
A staple in Kent
Salomon's was the perfect place to have our wedding
We had many compliments about the quality of the food. Our suppliers even said it was the best meal they'd had while working! We did the Sharing Roast and having the guests in chef's hat to carve the roast was a very popular part of our day.
I can't compliment the events team at Salomon's enough. In the last month before the wedding, they were so responsive and went above and beyond. We had a few changes in staff on their side and changed our main coordinator but it had 0 impact to the quality of our day.
On the day, our coordinator Willow was exceptional - keeping the show running and making sure that everyone was well looked after.
We were beyond happy with our wedding and Salomon's will always hold a special place in our heart!
Our Wedding was perfect
A Beautiful Day
Incredible!
All of our guests commented on how delicious the canapés and food were.
We will 10000% be returning for our anniversary.
Thank you everyone at Salomons for ensuring we had the most perfect day.
Outstanding Venue!
The food was amazing, and there was plenty of it. Great value for money as well.
The coordinators on the day and in the run up were super helpful and made everything run smoothly. We were as relaxed as we possibly could have been on the day and that was thanks to the team.
The grounds are lovely and made for some great photos. Bar service was great on the day as well and the guests were kept happy all day.
Would highly recommend!
The perfect wedding venue!
Perfect day and service
Beautiful day, incredible venue
We worked mainly with Lauren, who ensured that everything went ahead without an issue.
The day was perfect, the grounds are stunning, the venue is beautiful and the staff were flawless.
Thank you Salomons!
What a great venue for a wedding!
From looking around to the day itself the team were so friendly and answered any questions we had as soon as possible and made us feel like they actually cared.
The day itself was perfect and it was all down the the team working hard so we didn’t need to worry. On arrive the front of house manager welcomed us and made us feel very welcome and even said this is your house for the days which really put me at ease. The event team made sure we was all ok from start to finish and the rooms looked amazing. It was great to have different parts of our wedding in different parts of the venue as it made really interesting for our guests.
The food was outstanding and there was so much of it. No one was going away hungry at all.
We would highly recommend Salomons as a wedding venue. We got some amazing comments from our guests on how amazing the day was and how great the staff, venue and food was. If you are looking for somewhere great for your wedding this look no further.
We would like to thank Salmons and specially Fiona for such a brilliant day!
Salomons Estate review
Absolutely perfect venue.
The whole team are amazing to work with and when first visiting I felt so relaxed and at ease in their company - a lot of other venues felt very pushy in comparison looking back.
We absolutely loved that they had so many options in regards to food and drinks packages. We went for their bbq option which was perfect as we didn’t want a 3 course sit down, we wanted something a bit more relaxed. The food was delicious and everyone said they felt really full compared to some other weddings they’d been to!
The grounds themselves are stunning. We were so fortunate that we got married on the terrace, but the back up room inside was also beautiful if the weather hadn’t been on our side! We had our reception in the science theatre that is such a unique room and so beautiful.
Our wedding parties stayed the night before in the gatehouse and the bridal cottage, most of our wedding party also stayed the evening of the wedding in the hotel accommodation. This really extended our wedding celebration and I’m so grateful we could all stay on site in lovely accommodation.
I could go on and on for hours, but to summarise; the venue is not only stunning but is matched in amazing service.
