Wonderful, professional and magical

We had our wedding reception at the Pavilion in October with 80 guests and the whole event was amazing and hassle free thanks to Tracy and the team. The venue was magical, twinkly and a bit of a show stopper when people arrive and see the cascade! It’s the perfect backdrop to have photos and you don’t need to be miles away from your guests to get some incredible photos. Tracy did a beautiful job of setting out our DIY decor, but the room was so lovely and magical all on its own too. All the staff were fantastic and nothing felt like a hassle, it just happened as planned and we had the most brilliant time eating and dancing while it all happened in the background - exactly what you want. The food was also great and a number of guests commented on how good it was. We can’t recommend this venue enough, very reasonably priced too for such a unique and special location. We just wish we could do it again!

Incredible Venue!

We had our wedding ceremony in the Arbour and Breakfast/Evening do in the Pavilliion room. We had about 75 guests. All parts of the venue were stuning, the staff were excellent and accomodating to everything requested. The hire was very reasonable and the drinks prices weren't bad. We chose a set menu but the food was excellent and we had many compliments on the quality of the food. Overall we had a fantastic day in a fantastic venue that many of our guests were incredibly complimentary about. I can't recommend Alnwick Gardens enough.
