Wonderful woodland wedding

We had the most fantastic wedding at Happy Valley in August 2024. From our first visit we knew it was just what we were looking for and it really was. With the team's support, any concerns we had about planning the various elements of the day turned to excitement and meant we had exactly the day we wanted. So many guests raved about the location afterwards and we can't wait to go back next year to enjoy the lovely accommodation and hot tubs and remember our wonderful day <3 the location is really magical and the team is so warm, friendly and professional. They really made us feel like part of the Happy Vally family :)

Absolutely amazing

The most amazing venue and staff, we couldn’t have picked a more beautiful place to get married and the help and support from start to finish was the absolute best. From the moment we arrived for a viewing we knew this was our place. I would recommend anyone to visit to stay and without a doubt to get married there. It was the best and we are so grateful to have had our special day at happy valley

Magical forest venue in Norfolk

We had our wedding celebration at Happy Valley in July 2023 and it was the best weekend of our lives. The happy memories will last us a lifetime. We truly believe that this is a magical place, you can feel the love that has been channelled into the site. From our first visit in November 2021, we knew this was the place we wanted to get married. The venue has everything you need and more for the perfect wedding! Our priorities were - a venue where our wedding party could stay on site, so we could spend as much time as possible with them, and a venue where we were surrounded by nature. Happy Valley gave us both of these in abundance. When you quietly walk around the site you can hear the trees gently creak as they sway in the wind, and it feels like they are offering blessings, it's pure wedding magic. Led by Katy, the staff are super kind and helpful, and communication is always clear and friendly. They have worked with many local suppliers and we really felt the sense of community that has been built here as a business. Marie at The Cattle Yard bar put together the perfect drinks package for us, complete with local wines & bespoke cocktails. All the bar staff were so lovely to all our guests and instantly understood the vibe of our day. Our coordinator Alex was super calm and friendly and was always on hand with encouragement and support. We noticed every single kind word and gesture from the Happy Valley staff and we will always be grateful. If we haven't made it clear enough already - this is the dream team you want on your wedding day. The venue has so many gorgeous spaces to chose from, both indoor and outdoor so you are covered whatever the weather. It looked like it might rain on our wedding day (it didn't in the end) but we can honestly say that wherever you have your ceremony on the Happy Valley site, there will be a beautiful backdrop. The accommodation is beautifully put together and it really felt like the best possible (luxury!) festival with our nearest and dearest. The time you are allowed on site is really generous, so we never felt rushed and we felt like we had plenty of time to settle in and then to clear up. Checking all our friends into their accommodation was so much fun! Whether we were having breakfast together in Keeper's Cabin or a post-disco hot tub at Toad Hall, the accommodation was a huge part of the magic of our wedding weekend spent at Happy Valley. If you are looking for a versatile wedding venue, full of magic and beauty, and run by the coolest, kindest people - look no further, this is it. Have your wedding at Happy Valley and the special memories will last a lifetime. A&R x

What a Perfect Place

My husband & I got married here last week & it was absolutely perfect from beginning to end. The girls did an incredible job ensuring our day was smooth & wonderful. My husband & I aren't drinkers & were thrilled with the huge selection of alcohol free & vegan drinks available as well as the great bar selection. The location is stunning. Willow island was the perfect setting to get married, the trees swaying in the wind & the festoon lighting creates such a magical atmosphere.

The most beautiful venue

Everything from organising the wedding with Happy Valley to the little details in the venue, nothing was too much trouble. The venue is stunning. The rustic wedding barn was exactly the vision I had for our autumnal wedding. The log cabin accommodation is so unique and comfortable and makes Happy Valley the best of any venue I have seen.

Best day ever!

We knew Happy Valley was the venue for us as soon as we arrived. Set within stunning woodland, it was the perfect and most beautiful location to get married in. Being able to set up and stay over the night before was brilliant and made the day itself so much more relaxed. We were a dry hire event so could do exactly what we wanted to create our day. The accomodation is amazing and unique, and it was great to have our closest family and friends with us for the whole weekend. We were able to get married outside and used the Hay Barn for speeches, food and plenty of dancing! Communication before the wedding and support on the day was fab, thank you to the Happy Valley Team! We really did have the best day ever and I wouldn't change a thing.

Exceeded our expectations 💜

Happy Valley went above and beyond to make our wedding incredible. They supported us through multiple date changes due to Covid and ensured that when the day finally came it was everything we dreamed of and more. Not only does the venue offer a wonderful atmosphere, beautiful scenery and wildlife, it’s the owners (Katy & Scott) and staff such as Merci who make this place shine and were such kind, friendly faces we were honoured to have them a part of our day. Having use of the whole venue and accommodation for the whole weekend made the event even more special and meant all of our family and friends could celebrate and come together across 3 days. Happy Valley holds a very special place in our hearts and we can’t wait to return year on year to relive our wedding day.

Micro Wedding amidst a Global Pandemic

The most beautiful venue for our intimate wedding of 10 that we were determined to have despite being amidst a global pandemic. Katy and Kirsty were the perfect hosts throughout the pandemic and with one already rescheduled date, they worked with us and we could not have asked for more. They were accommodating, understanding and so patient and helped us to still have the most perfect wedding day. Happy Valley itself is also so perfect, beautiful and is full to the brim with wonderful natural and idyllic views and accommodation and we cannot wait to return and be back in our Happy Valley bubble once again.

I cannot put into words how wonderful it is!

Happy Valley was our wedding venue of dreams - we have quite big families so were looking for a large venue in Norfolk with enough space for all the kids to run wild & free! The venue is perfect as it has endless beautiful outdoor space but also the most beautiful indoor barns. We were able to have our ceremony outdoors surrounded by trees and looking out to the Norfolk countryside. To be able to spend the weekend on site with our friends and family was just perfect and made our wedding so much more special - we will absolutely be back for future weddings! Katy & Scott have made the most beautiful venue, I can’t quite put into words how wonderful it is! It has been made with such love & care and absolutely made our wedding so special. Each accommodation was beautiful and perfect for our guests. Happy Valley is the perfect woodland getaway and made our wedding day the most special day. Thank you for everything!!! Nikitta & Neezam

A second, more glamorous and exciting home

As an eco wedding florist I LOVE working with Happy Valley. The first time I went there was on a site visit with a prospective couple. There were soooooo many ceremony and party options and we loved walking around picturing the wedding. We definitely jumped up and down and did some excited clapping when we decided on the woods next to Toad Hall. As a designer, there was so much to take inspiration from - not only is the site full of lushness but the surrounding fields are dreamy. I was impressed by the eco credentials too, which included eco friendly products in the toilet blocks and sympathetically built and planted facilities. Katy and Scott are so welcoming and great to work with. Happy Valley feels like a second, more glamourous and exciting home. I can't wait to get back there to unleash a frenzy of fabulous floral creations.
