The Autumnal Wedding of Our Dreams 🍂
When we first came to see The Reid Rooms, we knew the second we left that it was the venue for us.
We fell in love with the simplicity and beauty and that it needed little decoration because it already had everything it needed to feel warm and welcoming.
Leading up to our wedding day, we communicated with Corrine and Angie who were both brilliant and used their years of knowledge by helping us with anything we needed and even offering their own advice from their experiences from previous weddings.
On the day, we didn't have to think about anything other than making amazing memories with our family and friends because Angie made sure that everything ran smoothly.
My husband and I were married on 3rd October 2024, and the venue at that time of year was breathtaking with the autumnal colours throughout the trees and greenery. This made it easy to get all of the stunning pictures we were able to capture with this as our backdrop.
In the evening we had two lovely girls behind the bar and when the night quietened and the evening guests had left us, we're still helping us have the most amazing time. They are a credit to the venue.
Overall we had the most magical day and all of our family and friends complimented the venue and grounds for it's beauty and the staff for their professionalism and kindness.
I would do it all again in a heartbeat and I would always come back to The Reid Rooms.
Thank you for taking the best care with us and our family and making our dream for our autumnal wedding a reality 🧡🍂

Perfect venue
From the moment we stepped foot into the Reid Rooms we knew it was the venue for us and every time we went to visit, it kept getting better and better. Such a picture perfect venue for an autumnal wedding with the twinkling fairy lights and log burner.
Corine and the team have been so lovely and helpful and always very quick to respond to emails and questions. Lucy our co-ordinator was an absolute gem, from our rehearsal to our wedding, she made the day run smooth, helped with nerves and I can't thank her enough for that.

The perfect venue
The Reid Rooms was the only venue my partner and I visited before booking for our big day. The site itself is so beautiful, and the farmhouse for guests is charming and comfortable. It ticked all the boxes for budget, appearance and service. Leading up to and on our wedding day, that service really came through as the coordinators helped us navigate complicated road closures and the loss of our waitress on the day itself. Angie and Jill went above and beyond to ensure our wedding ran smoothly without causing any stress to ourselves, and Corinne has been fantastic at fielding endless emails with questions. The team were amazingly flexible with my absolute determination to get married outside, despite very temperamental weather, and ran off their feet to make it happen as soon as the skies cleared. I truly believe that choosing this venue is what made all of the build up and stress worth it, as our wedding day was absolutely stunning and (to us) felt like it ran like a dream, despite all the hiccups. Thank you so much to the Reid Rooms team for giving us such a beautiful day.

Perfect Venue
From start to finish, the reid rooms were incredible and supportive. Lucy our co-ordinator was an angel, she made me feel so at ease and helped from the ceremony to the wedding reception.
Always make sure our guests were happy and always checking on myself and Colin. I can not recommend you all enough to people.
From the first meeting as the wedding show to the morning after the wedding. You were all just perfect. The staff at the Farmhouse were fantastic and we all felt like a big family.
Thank you for everything

The perfect venue
The Reid Rooms was the first venue that we visited and we immediately loved it, even having only seen it in the rain. We truly had the most wonderful experience at the Reid Rooms - the venue had so much character and beautiful spaces to use at various points during the day, especially the garden and courtyard area. We had an intimate wedding with 50 guests, which felt very comfortable in the space. The staff were spectacular and attentive from the very first meeting - responses were always quick and thorough, the service on the day was seamless and our wedding co-ordinator was extremely helpful. They have a caterer that they work with, but we opted for completely dry hire. Organising hire of crockery and linen was easy using a company that often work with the Reid Rooms. We were able to bring in our own caterer and sound system. We arrived early on the day to set up and decorate the venue. We also stayed overnight in the farmhouse and had a wonderful breakfast with some of our guests the next day. It was a truly incredible day and we had so many compliments on the venue too! Thank you!

Wonderful venue!!
The reid rooms is a perfect spot for a wedding.
We loved it on the first viewing, and it got even better when went to view in the evening.
The staff are amazing. Our wedding coordinator went above and beyond on the day, even helping to keep some of the children entertained whilst we were getting ready and when we were doing photos.
Amazing communication from the first email to the last. Anything we wanted to know or ask was answered quickly.

Fantastic venue for a wedding
We got married on the 29th July at the Reid rooms, it was an absolutely amazing day. From when we met Lucy the wedding organiser at the rehearsal everything went so smoothly. She was so helpful and everyone at the venue was amazing. We could not have had a better day. In the morning we had a fantastic cooked breakfast. Would highly recommend the Reid rooms for a wedding venue.

The most unique day
We recently got married at the Reid Rooms Meadow Pavilion, with the tractor ride included!
It was the most perfect day, we couldn’t have asked for anything more.
From the start of the planning process all the way until the end of the day, the staff responded quickly and were extremely helpful.
The venue itself is stunning with options for indoor and outdoor ceremonies, we were able to add a lot of our own touches to make the day uniquely ours. Something that not many other venues allow!
