More perfect than we'd ever hoped for

We got married at Chippenham Park in August this year, and it may sound smug to say but everything went perfectly. I knew we were in the safest pair of hands with Beccy, who kept everything running on time and couldn't have been more helpful in the run-up and on the day itself. Chippenham Park was an idyllic setting, all of our guests were so impressed with the gardens. A huge thank you to the whole team for the most amazing day!

The perfect venue for a summer wedding

Chippenham Park is a stunning location for a summer wedding, and the team there were the perfect blend of helpful and flexible. Our guests had a wonderful time enjoying drinks by the main house, as my wife and I had photographs taken in their stunning grounds, before we rejoined them and headed across for the Wedding Breakfast. The marquee is a good size and well laid out, and we were very impressed with the catering - both the food quality and the service we received.

An Unforgettable Wedding at Chippenham Park

Mr & Mr Pottage Our wedding celebration at Chippenham Park was simply magical. The venue’s breathtaking gardens and serene atmosphere created an unforgettable backdrop for our special day. Every moment felt like a dream, and we couldn’t have wished for a more perfect location to celebrate our love. What truly made the day extraordinary was the incredible team at Chippenham Park, especially Becca. She was absolutely wonderful—kind, thoughtful, and dedicated to making everything run smoothly. Becca went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of, showing genuine warmth and care that put us completely at ease. She is an amazing person whose hard work and kindness added a truly special touch to our day. To the entire team at Chippenham Park and Crown Catering, thank you for making our wedding celebration everything we dreamed it would be and more. We wholeheartedly recommend this beautiful venue to anyone seeking a day filled with joy, beauty, and unforgettable memories.

Simply Wonderful day

From day one, we were supported and guided through the whole process. No stress, nothing was too much trouble and the team at Chippenham were just superb. Their knowledge, kindness and overall organisation of our day was perfect. Please go and visit and see for yourselves the beautiful setting for the best photos ever! You will not find a better venue and team to make your day a day to remember. I would 110% recommend this wedding venue to all. And just as an added bonus, Bride and Groom get to spend the night in Chippenham hall with a lovely breakfast for all staying guests the next day. Most welcome after the fantastic party the night before!

Most amazing celebration

We couldn’t have dreamt of a better wedding day. The weather in the week leading up to it had been awful but for our day the sun shone and we were able to have the outdoor ceremony. Everything about Chippenham park was amazing. We can not thank Beccy enough for all she did to make our day so special.

September 2024 Wedding

The whole Chippenham experience was fabulous! We fell in love from our very first visit. Beccy understood what we were looking for from the very outset and was incredibly patient and helpful in answering the 100s of questions we had. We chose all of our suppliers from Chippenham's recommended list and every single one was incredible. The list took away so much stress of not knowing where to begin, it gave us a starting point and we knew were in good hands. In the lead up to the wedding we were able to visit again to work out where we wanted to set things up and in the days before were able to set up and even drop off my dress which was a huge help. On the day when I was getting a bit stressed about buttonholes Beccy just resolved the situation with no fuss. I also found out that she'd helped my friend set up a surprise wedding canvas for us for our guests to paint which was amazing and my friend said how helpful Beccy had been in the process. We had the most perfect day, we couldn't have asked for better and absolutely loved Chippenham! Thank you Beccy and team for the best day!

THE MOST STUNNING VENUE!

Thank you so much for being so accommodating, warm and supportive whilst helping to plan our special day! We had the most perfect day, which is all down to you and all of the staff at Chippenham and suppliers involved! We are forever grateful to look back on our wedding day with pure happiness and joy! Everyone was so complimentary when talking about the venue and many of our guests said it was the most stunning venue that they had been too (which we definitely agree - couldn't have chosen a more beautiful setting!). We will be back to visit the gardens again in the future and remember our wonderful wedding day with the people we love!

An incredible venue made even more special by the wonderful team

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Beccy and the entire team at Chippenham for making our wedding day unforgettable. Special thanks to Michael, George, and everyone else who contributed. The entire day was stunning from start to finish, thanks to the exceptional efforts of everyone at Chippenham. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the beautiful venue. Our only regret is not having more time to soak it all in the next morning. You're all doing an amazing job creating such a special experience. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for facilitating the best day of our lives!

Perfect wedding!

Beccy was the perfect wedding organiser and Chippenham Park was the most amazing venue we could have asked for! We knew we wanted to get married at Chippenham Park as soon as we saw the venue. The house and grounds are so lovely, the ceremony area by the lake is perfect, and the marquee is ideal for the meal and evening. The staff did an excellent job and really added to the day. You should go for an open day and see for yourself what a fantastic venue it is. Beccy is the wedding organiser with Chippenham Park and she was everything we could have asked for! She was so organised and experienced, keeping on top of the planning and giving us advice and help with what needed doing in the run up to the day. She liaised with all of the vendors a few weeks before the wedding day to make sure that everything was organised and would run as clockwork on the day, and also met with us to go through the plans for the day. Our wedding day went perfectly and so much of that was due to Beccy. She knew who to organise and when, and was on top of everything throughout the day. She worked so hard and everything ran so smoothly. As well as being so professional and excellent at her job, Beccy is also a super lovely person. It was a pleasure to work with her and I couldn't recommend her more!
