We own the camping field adjoining the venue- so the option to welcome 300+ guests is no problem. We also cater for the small, intimate celebrations... Whatever you're imagining we can accommodate. We do not stipulate which suppliers you must use, so the freedom and flexibility we offer is unique. On hand is Hannah, our dedicated, enthusiastic wedding coordinator, who will guide you through the wedding planning with ease, helping you to find suppliers, devising an order of the day and being present the entire day to ensure your wedding flows perfectly.

I don’t think we can put into words how much it meant to us to have their help, kindness and humour.

My husband and I recently had our wedding reception at Herons Park and it was absolutely fantastic!!! We couldn’t thank them enough and the whole team were outstanding and lovely. I don’t think we can put into words how much it meant to us to have their help, kindness and humour. We are truly so happy to have had our reception at Herons Park, it was the best decision I think we’ve made in very long time! I just wanted to say thanks for their accommodation, not just the bridal suite (which is beautiful and had everything we could have wanted!) but also our ideas. It went everywhere but the confetti cannons and the glitter station we put up were definitely a talking point. Also, the JÄGER TRAIN!! Best thing ever!!! Thank you again!!!!

The venue is just stunning and Hannah was absolutely amazing, making suggestions and giving ideas to help us achieve the day we wanted.

We could not have chosen a better place to celebrate our marriage! Thanks again, we will definitely be recommending your beautiful venue, Charlotte and Andrew xxx

FAQs

Describe the best wedding that happened at Herons Park Venue?

A spring wedding in May 2017- the theme was colour! There was so much of it! There was also a live band, firework finale, deli burger van and a unicorn rodeo! It was amazing and a wedding i'll never forget!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Let people help! So often I see brides overwhelmed, because they still need to make this, or haven't chosen that... Ask your friends and family to pitch in, plan a crafting night with your bridesmaids! Have fun, whilst ticking something else off your list!

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

A guitar guest book- I thought this was so novel, as it's then a display piece- rather than a book sat in a drawer.

Describe Herons Park Venue in 5 adjectives

Beautiful, light, elegant, spacious, unique

Where’s the best photo spot at Herons Park Venue?

Overlooking our beautiful lake, surrounded by wildlife

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at Herons Park Venue?

Sadly not, we live in hope! We could definitely accommodate a helicopter landing (just saying!)

What’s your favourite canapé?

Mini Yorkshire puddings with beef

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

Ice cream!

What is Herons Park Venue most unique feature?

Our children's play room always gets a lot of attention, as it's not something you see everywhere! We wanted the venue to be family friendly- that means no bored children! Equipped with toys and games we think it reflects the essence of what we are looking to achieve.

What part of your business are you most proud of?

That we have stayed true to what we wanted to achieve. I see so many venues churning out weddings every day of the week... We wanted to be different. We get to know our couples and want to know your story! Every couple is different, so every wedding should be too! We put our all into ensuring our couples have the best day possible. We only ever host one wedding per week.
