A wedding to remember!

Our wedding at Seckford Hall was everything we were hoping for, and more. We had exclusive use of the hotel for our celebration which was perfect for our guests travelling from afar.
Many of them stayed the night before too, helping to create a relaxed atmosphere for the whole weekend. The warm weather was an added bonus and enabled everyone to enjoy the idyllic grounds.
Grace was invaluable in helping us plan for the big day and on the day itself Jess couldn't do enough to make sure everyone had a good time. The food was excellent and the day ran so smoothly from start to finish thanks to the amazing staff.
The first glimpse of Seckford Hall as you pull in the drive was a big wow factor for many guests and the feedback afterwards about the wedding and the hotel's facilities has been so positive!
We would like to thank the team for making our day so special and would highly recommend Seckford Hall as the perfect wedding venue.

Beautiful venue!

Seckford Hall was the most scenic venue for my husband and I’s wedding, and the kindness and great communication with staff made our day go without a hitch. Grace was an incredible wedding planner and so detail oriented and ensured that everything was planned and ran smoothly. Georgia ran the day so well and was so kind and thoughtful to us and all of our guests! We were so happy that our non traditional approach to our wedding was welcomed and everything was as we expected. The food was absolutely wonderful, our allergies were well accommodated for and the staff were overall fantastic. Thank you so much Seckford, you were incredible!

Best day of our lives

Our whole experience with Seckford Hall was perfect. We got married by the bandstand and then had dinner in the pavilion and a party in the great hall, with a bit of seating in the little hall. The venue was perfect for our c.100 guests, not too big it felt empty but room to breathe too!

The whole team were great at helping us plan and Georgia was a superstar on the day, making sure everything ran smoothly. So many people commented on how great the food was and many said it was the first wedding where they'd eaten everything and felt full! The evening buffet was also v fresh and went down well.

The grounds are gorgeous and my guests loved walking in the gardens and discovering the history of the house. The bridal suite was amazing as well! It provided a truly beautiful end to a magical day. Thank you to everyone at seckford who made it perfect and so stress free! X

Perfect wedding day

We got married at seckford hall last Saturday. We cannot thank them enough! The day was perfect. The whole planning team were excellent leading up to the day, and Georgia was a star on the day, so organised but also chilled and fun. We were blessed with a sunny day and the grounds looked beautiful. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff. The food was absolutely gorgeous with generous portions.

Lots of our family and friends stayed at the hotel and spoke highly of their rooms. Our honeymoon sweet was so beautiful we didn't want to leave.

Each one of my external vendors commented on how professional seckford hall were, and how they enjoyed working with them.

Thank you so much for everything, Seckford Hall seems to just keep getting better, even since we booked our wedding a year ago. It will always be special for us.

Best Day Ever!

We got married at Seckford Hall in October 2023 and it was really the most incredible day of our lives. From the very first viewing, to all the planning meets, to the end of the big day itself and beyond, the staff at Seckford were all amazing and went above and beyond at every possibility. The day ran incredibly smoothly from the moment we woke up and the team helped us to welcome all our guests and make this a truly memorable day. The food and drink were absolutely incredible and totally delicious. All of our guests commented on just how fantastic the food was and how beautiful the venue was and how smoothly the day ran. Seckford were very generous in looking after us and making us feel incredibly special. We are especially grateful to Adrienn for all her amazing help with our planning meetings, and she really did so much to make it perfect. Georgia and Rob were also incredible to help us on the day to make the food and the event go so smoothly and we really wish we could relive it. Thank you very much, we couldn't recommend them more highly.

Pure magic at Seckford Hall

A huge thank you to Georgia, Jess, Adrienn and all the team at Seckford who helped to make our wedding day truly incredible!

The venue, grounds, and atmosphere are absolutely magical, and getting married outside in the bandstand was picture-perfect. The events team and staff were always helpful and the food was amazing throughout. We were just really impressed with the whole organisation and running of the day, it was faultless from start to finish and completely stress free.

We are so happy we chose Seckford, it was the perfect day!

Perfect wedding

All staff were very helpful and made ourselves and our two children feel very welcome each time we visited.
All of my wedding related questions were answered promptly and the staff couldn’t do anymore to help with planning and on the day.
The venue itself is stunning and made the perfect location for our wedding day.
I would 100% recommend to anyone.

Seckford Hall is a dream wedding venue

From the moment we booked the team at Seckford Hall bent over backwards to look after us, we could not fault a thing. Our day was more than we could have dreamed of. The Great Hall was such a magical space to get married in and the views of the lake and grounds while we enjoyed the most delicious dinner were just outstanding. We cannot recommend Seckford Hall enough, thank you so much to the entire team for making our dreams come true.
