- MMariam and Ben08/07/2024Perfect 2 days Perfect 2 daysAbsolutely perfect wedding here, could not recommend more highly. We went for a 2 day hire and the first day did outdoor games and al fresco dining in the walled garden which was a truly wonderful preparation for the big day. The venue on the day was perfect for us, especially on a sunny Friday, particularly with all the beautiful outdoor spaces. The Wisteria had just bloomed for us in early May. The organisation in the run up to the wedding was faultless and Beth our coordinator was always on it, responded so quickly and was flexible to all our needs. So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they’d been to! Absolutely perfect wedding here, could not recommend more highly.

- MMr & Mrs Young12/11/2018So many happy memories!So many happy memories!We have been totally overwhelmed - in a good way - since the wedding weekend! There are not enough words to explain how thankful and grateful we are to you guys for helping us have an incredible weekend. We are so over the moon that we selected Deer Park and not sure how we’ll ever be able to thank you - and the team - for absolutely everything you’ve done for us! It was so fantastic that I think we’re still in shock! In a good way! Getting emotional just writing this! Every single person who attended complimented Deer Park on service, standard of food, the rooms, the hospitality I could go on. Honestly not a single negative! We had such a good time. I remember dancing in the evening thinking this is a really great wedding and the reality hitting me that it was our wedding!! We just wish we could do it all again. So many happy memories. Eternally grateful - for everything, and all your support and guidance! And for putting up with last minute changes without a single stressed moment! Thank you so much, once again!

- LLaura & Chris11/11/2018The perfect venue!! The perfect venue!!Wow, from start to finish I cant even begin to describe how amazing and lovely the staff are. We had the best day of our lives celebrating our wedding day here in August. Our wedding planner Kate was an absolute superstar, really easy to communicate with, really helpful & just such a lovely genuine person all together. Even before we had our first meeting to just view the deerpark her response rate was fantastic answering a million questions for us and made us really excited about the place. Then when we got there we just fell in love with it and felt at ease with such a welcoming team (wed had a previous bad experience elsewhere so this was really important to us too). The grounds are just beautiful, the character in the house is perfect, the orangery and summer house set up for ceremonies was just 100 times better than wed ever envisioned! We loved the decor and gardens and when you walk around the place your greeted with a big smile from every member of staff you pass. The team couldn’t do enough for us on our big day & Kate was on hand making sure our day ran smoothly and introduced us to the assistant manager who took over from her once she’d finished her shift, who again was absolutely fantastic! We cant thank the whole team enough. Now for the wedding breakfast and breakfast the morning after the wedding!! 😋😋 the food was absolutely delicious!!! Good portion sizes and top quality food. (Our guests cant stop talking about the evening buffet of pizza too!) and a big thank you to the amazing chef after a little mishap with our wedding cake he soon found a solution for the issue and made sure everything was perfect for us. The staff just go above and beyond for you!! There incredible. I cant believe how quick our day went by even with an early wedding and we cant wait to come back soon to relive some of our special moments. The hotel is super dog friendly (our dogs are our world) and the hotel is so accommodating! They even had there own doggy wedding breakfast served for them. They enjoyed most of the day with us and theres a lovely walk to take them on too 😊 the treehouse is super cute and some of the staff had gone in there left us champagne on ice, some of our wedding cake and music playing in the background, it was the perfect setting to sit back and reflect on the amazing day we had just had. They pay attention to every little detail and try there best to make your day exactly as you want it. All in all, we couldn’t recommend the deerpark enough & the biggest and warmest thank you to everyone involved on our special day 💛 xWow, from start to finish I cant even begin to describe how amazing and lovely the staff are.

- AAmy and Kevin20/10/2018Best day of my life!Best day of my life!I got married on 8 September 2018 and it really was the best day of my life. My wedding coordinator was Kate and she was really helpful throughout the wedding process. The Deer Park team were amazing from the first time we looked around the venue to the wedding day itself. The venue is absolutely stunning. We wanted an outdoor wedding and the summer house is perfect for that. It was so quiet and romantic. The night before I stayed in the self catering house with my bridesmaids which was great. There was plenty of room for all of us to get ready and stay. The morning of the wedding me and my family decorated the orangery and the outside area at the summer house so the venue looked exactly how I wanted it. We wanted our own Mr and Mrs cocktails and the venue was able to provide us with these where others had said we couldn't have them so that was wonderful! The canapes, wedding breakfast and pizzas in the evening were delicious. Everyone commented on how amazing the food was. We stayed in the tree house the night of the wedding. It is beautiful and as we walked in music was playing and champagne and cake had been left for us which was a lovely touch. Every element we wanted to include the venue were happy to help us incorporate which meant we got the wedding we dreamed of!
