From start to finish, Sarah, Hayley and the team were supportive, accommodating, patient, kind, and knowledgable making sure that our wedding day was perfect. After visiting The Old School and meeting with Sarah, we were certain that we wanted to use this venue for our special day and booked our wedding that very afternoon. Whenever we had questions they were answered quickly and completely and we were never made to feel like we were asking too much or bothering anyone. Sarah and the team were receptive to all our ideas- and there were a lot of non traditional elements to our day- and helped us find ways to make them work. We were able to tailor the whole day to be exactly what we wanted and the team at The Old School made it so that everything went perfectly. The day before the wedding, we arrived to decorate and the staff helped us with the big changes, like switching out the curtains. Sarah handed over all the information to us, showed us how to use safety equipment and lock up the building before giving us the keys for us to finish. Before they left they asked us to set up a table for the meal so they could take photos and make sure that changing the room from ceremony to meal would go smoothly and look the way we wanted it to. We set up the chairs (which were easy to set up and put away), the sound system, the decorations, and final touches. I (the bride) stayed in the guesthouse on site with my bridal party that night and it was fabulous. The guesthouse has so much character and plenty of space and natural light to get ready in the morning. In the morning, Sarah organised the registrars and my husband to make sure the ceremony started in the right way. After the ceremony, the team made sure the prosecco and non alcoholic drinks we had provided were served for our guests while they changed the hall from ceremony to meal. We opted to have afternoon tea catered by The Old School and it was incredible! All our guests raved about it, especially the sausage rolls! We honestly couldn't have asked for a better team to help us realise our perfect day. They made sure it all went perfectly and the whole experience was stress free. We highly recommend The Old School for weddings and other events, and we will be coming back to celebrate big events here in the future.

The Lightship was a magical venue for our wedding. We were guided through wine choices with an incredible depth of information. The food selection used high quality locally sourced ingredients and was beautifully cooked and presented. The venue was spectacular and provided the perfect venue for an exciting intimate wedding. Arriving by motorboat through the marina surprised all our guests and made for a memorable moment. The staff provided an immaculate service in a relaxed and friendly way. Every guest felt looked after. I wouldn’t change a single thing. Our wedding day was perfect and spectacular.

Lovely venue. Staff were so friendly & helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Made our event so pleasurable in planning & on the actual day. Worth a look you will fall in love with the venue too.

We held a family party at Morgan’s yard in August and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The size of the fields is just right and the location is great. There was parking onsite for all of our guests with the option to camp too, as well as being a short drive from hotels. Laura made booking very simple and organised the marquee, posh loo’s and bouncy castle for us.

We absolutely loved having our wedding reception here at the distillery. The team were a joy to organize this with and the staff on the night we exceptional. This is a truly beautiful location, anytime of the day or year and as a result we only needed a few small touched to make it our own for the evening. A wonderful venue!

We chose high rocks for the renewing of our wedding vows. Maggie Giuseppi and the team were amazing from initial meeting to the run up to the final day. Venue was superb, the ambiance created by the staff was great. The food was superbly presented and everybody was complimentary. Our ceremony and celebrations were slightly non standard but accommodated with aplomb. I can’t speak high enough of High Rocks, they made our special day so memorable

Sara and I celebrated our wedding in June at the exquisite King's Court Centre. From the moment we laid eyes on the venue, we were smitten and wasted no time in securing our booking. Our special day turned out to be truly magnificent, thanks in large part to the exceptional efforts of Marta and her dedicated team. Simon, the talented venue caterer, treated us to an outstanding three-course wedding breakfast, a delightful BBQ spread, and ensured our guests were entertained by a skilled DJ and mesmerising magician. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding experience.

Dreamland was the best decision we made for our wedding. The venue has so much to offer and has something for everyone. The team are so flexible and accommodating and were able to make everything we wanted happen. Huge thanks to Eleanor for all her amazing support before and on the day.
