Description

Bespoke at Great Danegate offers an enchanting outdoor setting for wedding receptions and parties, with multiple areas designed to suit various styles and capacities. Surrounded by the breathtaking landscapes of the High Weald AONB, each space provides a unique backdrop for creating unforgettable celebrations, whether couples desire a relaxed festival-style reception or an elegant marquee setup. The Main Reception Field is the heart of the reception area, offering sweeping views of the surrounding Kent countryside. This stunning space can accommodate 200-plus guests, making it ideal for grand celebrations. With ample room for a sailcloth marquee, stretch tents, or banquet-style seating arrangements, the Main Reception Field allows for various configurations, including a dance floor, lounge areas, and designated spaces for live music. This area is perfect for a sophisticated reception setup or a lively outdoor party with food trucks and entertainment. Behind the Main Reception Field lies a large, separate field for camping, glamping, and parking. This space, tucked out of sight from the main celebration area, provides the ideal spot for guests to camp or glamp, adding to the immersive countryside experience while keeping the reception area free for festivities. The camping field features compostable toilets as well as ample parking, ensuring that guests arriving by car have convenient access without impacting the scenic views and atmosphere of the Main Reception Field. For those seeking a more intimate reception, Bespoke at Great Danegate offers a charming Meadow, well-suited for gatherings of up to 50 guests. This more private area allows for a cosy, relaxed reception, with space for a small marquee or pagoda, a dance floor, and even an acoustic music setup. The Meadow provides an intimate environment, perfect for smaller gatherings where guests can celebrate under the open sky.

Seamless, magical and unforgettable!

What a magical day we had! The venue was perfect for us and the day went seamlessly thanks to Eve! Eve was with us every step of our wedding journey and was always there for us. We had weekly calls with Eve in the run-up to our big day and she put such a huge amount of effort into making our day so incredible. Eve completely understood our vision and vibe we wanted to create and we can’t thank her enough! Truly the best day of our lives!!

The most beautiful and secluded venue...

We stumbled upon this stunning venue and the team at Bespoke Events Management. It is the most beautiful and secluded venue. Karianne and the team were extremely helpful throughout the entire process. We had a marquee set up in the garden, and the unspoiled view of the countryside made it truly special. I highly recommend this venue for any event; you won't be disappointed.

Bespoke Events Management is world-class. Working at the highest levels and offering the most premium service and levels of support for our wedding at Claridge’s Hotel, London. We are so grateful to Karianne and her team, especially Eve, for being our right hand in the lead-up to our Wedding. They left no stone unturned, and we felt completely relaxed that the coordination of suppliers was executed perfectly. I would go to them first for any future events.
