- EEm & Jake21/08/2025Absolutely 5* venue and team!!!Absolutely 5* venue and team!!!We booked Cress Lakes for our wedding in July 2025 and from the first moment that we met Georgie and Leigh 18 months before our big day, we knew they were going to help us have the best day! It is a family run business with the most gorgeous outdoor venue, they helped us turn our festival-style Tipi wedding into a reality. The whole team at Cress Lake are just the nicest people and they were there every step of the way for us. They really made us feel like we were a special day for them too, and we started to feel part of the family. The tipi itself was incredible, and we could decorate it however we wanted. And the lakes and grounds are perfect if you are looking for an outdoor, scenic wedding vibe. We truly can't recommend them highly enough, thank you so much to the whole team at Cress Lakes for the best day of our lives!!
