Lanwades Hall

Lanwades Hall is truly an incredible venue! We nearly canceled our viewing appointment because we thought we had already found "the one," but I’m so glad we didn’t! It was absolutely perfect for us. The venue is stunning, with breathtaking interiors, but it was the garden that truly sealed the deal. The idea of having an outdoor ceremony there made it a no-brainer—I could easily envision everything I had dreamed of! But, what truly maked Lanwades Hall special is the outstanding team working behind the scenes. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy the day without any worries. Our main contact, Charlotte, was simply amazing! Her keen attention to detail, exceptional organization, and soothing demeanor made the entire planning process a breeze. She was always there to answer our questions and offered advice that eased any stress we felt in the lead up to the big day (even during those late night panic messages!!) she really has the kindest soul and would do anything to help anyone!! Tegan, who was relatively new in her role, was also fantastic, demonstrating professionalism and enthusiasm that made us feel confident we were in good hands. Our experience at Lanwades Hall was nothing short of magical. The combination of a stunning venue and an outstanding team made for an unforgettable day. We had the most perfect day, and I couldn’t have asked for anything more!

We had our wedding at Lanwades Hall in July 2024 and we would love to share our experience. Our original meeting with Charlotte Wilgoose was in July 2023, and honestly, within minutes of meeting her I just knew we would be friends! We had a leisurely tour of the house and gardens, looking at pictures of various different types of weddings and talking through our own hopes for our wedding and ceremony. Charlotte has an incredible amount of knowledge and experience, and was able to help us to understand the myriad of options available to us. After leaving that initial meeting, we decided to book Lanwades Hall as our venue very quickly, feeling confident that we would have help and support from Charlotte and the team in all aspects of wedding planning. By happy coincidence, there was an open day a few weeks later when the house was being set up for weddings with the various preferred suppliers of the venue. This was an important and exciting event where we had the opportunity to meet and talk to the various suppliers such as caterers, photographers, musicians, cake makers and more. Seeing the venue set up was wonderful, and we got lots of ideas and design inspiration. We were also very pleased to invite our parents to this event, so they were able to share their thoughts and suggestions. The planning process was greatly helped by Charlotte and the team, and we had regular contact with them throughout, in person, by phone and email. We felt incredibly well cared for and that they were as invested in our wedding as we were. Our day went perfectly, although it went so fast! We cannot praise the entire team highly enough to convey our gratitude and appreciation. Everyone was so kind and helpful to us and our guests, nothing was too much trouble. I have to give a very special shout out to Charlotte for her incredible support on the actual wedding day. She was always there for me, anticipating everything before I even knew what I needed. During my time getting ready, she was there with many glasses of water (it was so hot!), lots of hugs and reassurance, tissues for my tears, updating me on everything and genuinely making my day better. Every time we were taken for photographs, Charlotte magically appeared with my bouquet (always dried first) and helped me look my best. The day flowed beautifully, the team turned the hall around and ready for the reception while the guests were enjoying the afternoon sun, and we just floated through the day on a cloud of happiness. The bridal suite was a perfect place to get ready, I had plenty of room to have my makeup done and spend time with my special people before the ceremony. Later that night we spent a wonderful first night as a married couple, Chris had a shower while I had a luxurious soak in the bath! I still miss that beautiful bathroom!! We then sat to enjoy some wedding cake and champagne before heading to the most comfortable bed ever!! We would definitely recommend the venue to anyone getting married, our photos are spectacular and we have the best memories that we will cherish forever. Xx Sacha and Chris.

Wow. Where to even begin to explain just how amazing Lanwades truly is. From being the most beautiful venue to having the most amazing staff and suppliers. Everything about the lead up, the planning and the day itself. We had the most magical day we ever dreamt of and we have so much of that to thank to Lanwades. If you want the day of dreams.. book Lanwades. Thank you, for everything. Charlotte and Rob x

We would love to give more stars as this really is the most special place to get married. Every last detail was perfection. The team were wonderful and so supportive Charlotte was an incredible support to us, not only is she a funny, kind hearted person, nothing seemed too much trouble and Tegan was a great help on the day too. must have worked so hard but to us they seemed relaxed and somehow still had time to get us a drink and relax us just before the ceremony. Thank you Lanwades.

Thank you for your email, we had a truly fabulous day and wish we could do it all over again! The whole team were brilliant and our guests enjoyed it so much as well - thank you for making it happen and go so smoothly.

We would love to give more stars as this really is the most special place to get married. Every last detail was perfection. The team were wonderful and so supportive. They ensured the day ran seamlessly and our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. They couldn't do enough to make us feel at ease. The venue was stunning as were the rooms. Charlotte was an incredible support to us, not only is she a funny, kind hearted person, nothing seemed too much trouble and Tegan was a great help on the day too. The team must have worked so hard but to us they seemed relaxed and somehow still had time to get us a drink and relax us just before the ceremony. They made sure we were always in the right place at the right time and stayed on track (which was difficult as we were all over the place - even at the bottom of the garden when dinner was about to start). I didn't look at my watch/ phone the whole day, the time flew by. They linked so well with the other suppliers. The whole day was perfect. Thank you Lanwades (Alex, Elvis, Charlotte, Tegan) for the best most special day of our lives ❤️

Lanwades Hall was just perfect and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment we arrived on Friday afternoon with our family and friends, to when we left on Sunday, we had the most special and unforgettable time. Everyone working there made us feel so welcome and our wedding coordinator, Tegan, was there every step of the way in the lead up and during the day itself. The extensive grounds were stunning and all our guests were blown away by the beauty and character of the walled garden and beyond. All of the recommended suppliers from Lanwades we chose: Cambridge Wedding Services (DJ), Portfolio (Caterers), Heidi Appleyard (Florist), Juan Muino (Photographer) & Derek (Wedding Car) were absolutely fantastic and helped make our day perfect. Our videographer -Kelly Southby - was also brilliant and helped capture our day. A special mention to Elvis who, from the very first moment we met him on our first visit to Lanwades, made us feel so welcome with his warmth and enthusiasm. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lanwades Hall to a couple looking for the perfect wedding.

I just want to say a BIG THANK YOU to the Lanwades team, yet again. I celebrated my wedding here on July 12 and found both the venue and staff fantastic. My husband and I highly recommend the venue to anyone pondering whether to choose it for their big day.
