I didn't stop smiling all day!

We absolutely loved the court yard, lots of different spaces but we liked that everyone was going to be together. A big plus was that Polly our dog was allowed everywhere! The coop was the best thing, all my bridesmaids could get ready together, highly recommend, couldn't imagine not having the coop & the staircase, fabulous. Charlotte was great, I often felt like some of my questions she would think 'what now??' but I was never made to feel that. On the day the staff couldn't do enough for us!

We loved the Threshing Hall!

When we first arrived for the open day it automatically gave us such a warm special feeling that no other venue had. We loved both the threshing hall & great barn for their unique vibe and straight away pictured our friends & family celebrating our day there. We loved the menu tasting night it gave us an insight to the amazing quality of food that would be served. Jess was always contactable throughout the whole process. We couldn’t fault any person who was involved they were all fantastic.

We had the most amazing day ever!

The Threshing Hall was absolutely stunning and we loved it immediately. We wanted a big space where our guests would feel relaxed & comfortable & ready to party of course. The amount of accommodation on site was very important to us. Jess Rix, Heidi & the bar staff were all absolutely fantastic. Everyone we dealt with were so helpful & lovely. The day ran like a dream, it was so well organised & ran smoothly, we didn’t have to worry about a thing! Just a huge thank you to all involved!

We had the best time!

The Threshing Hall was a show-stopper for us, all our guests commented on how stunning it was. We absolutely loved our wedding day. I know that everyone will say it was the best day of their lives but it really was! Everything ran smoothly and on time, the food was absolutely gorgeous and the venue looked beautiful. I couldn't fault a single thing. If we could do it every year, we would.

We couldn’t have wished for a better day!

The whole day was so special & we would like to thank the whole team for helping make the day flow so well. We stayed in the coop the night before & it helped make the morning easier so we felt we weren’t rushing about. Charlotte was a fantastic coordinator and I really appreciate the help she gave us leading up to and on the day. The rest of the team throughout the day were excellent & accommodating. Everyone commented on how stunning the venue was and the tasty food!

Best day of our lives!

We had the most amazing weekend. From start to finish we felt special. Our wedding was organised and seamless with everything in place when we needed it. The rustic feel to the venue was exactly what we wanted and we were allowed to make it our own with no questions asked. On the morning of the wedding, our wedding organiser ensured we were feeling calm and ready with no worries or concerns and we all knew exactly what we were doing. The bar and catering staff were extremely helpful and answered any questions we had. The guests commented on the beautiful venue and particularly how delicious the food was. Thank you for making our day the best of our lives!

Perfect Wedding

Firstly can I say that from the moment we saw the venue we just knew it was the one! It was the first one we viewed and we just fell in love, every place after that just didn’t compare. Every part of it is so beautiful and romantic and so well thought out. We have family all over the country so having a place where everyone could get together and spend a couple of days together was ideal! The cottages are lovely and all our family have been raving about them and the whole wedding since they got home! We were looked after so well by Jess, our wedding coordinator, and the whole team from the start who helped us to shape our perfect day and bring it all together, so thank you! The food is to die for and there is something to cater for everyone, which is another thing all our guests have been raving about too! Also, being able to have our dogs as such a big part of the day was the cherry on top of the cake! All in all we had a day even more perfect than we dreamed of and we would do it all over again! Thank you again, Mr and Mrs Hinds x

A happy couple!

We had just the best time. We fell in love with the venue upon first seeing it back in 2019 and everything from them on has been first class. Throughout covid/lockdowns too. I adore Northumberland, it's my favourite place in the world and this place is the ideal setting for a wedding. The 3 days allowed us to spend more time with family and friends and made the wedding day itself feel more relaxed without having to chat too much and just enjoy the moment. Once again, Thanks to all the staff for looking after us throughout the process and our wedding too.

We can’t stop talking about it!

Just a very quick email to say thank you sooo much for all of your hard work for our wedding. It couldn’t have went any better, it was exactly the day we wanted and we can’t stop thinking/talking about it! 😁 The whole day ran without any issues and we have had so many compliments on the venue and how beautiful it was. We will no doubt be back for a Sunday lunch or any events that may happen at Doxford in the future.
