Our wedding was perfect here

We had our wedding here at Hornsbury on 2nd August 2024. From the initial meeting with Paul we knew this was the place for our long awaited wedding. Every contact from them was professional and yet always personal and friendly. We were drawn by the lovely surroundings and the professionally laid back vibes. They have a variety of meal and drink packages, but they are flexible and full of ideas. The food and drink was exceptional.

Excellent wedding venue

Attended a close family wedding yesterday at Hornsbury Mill and wanted to leave a review to say how fantastic the venue was. A very relaxed setting, an excellent wedding breakfast and great ambience. Special mention to the staff Zoe and Emma who were fabulous throughout the event. Their obvious pride and pleasure in the job they do shone through.

Winter Wedding at Hornsbury Mill

Where do I start... I could not recommend Hornsbury Mill enough for a wedding venue! Emma the wedding coordinator is absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond to make sure our day was exactly how we wanted it. All of our guests came away saying the food was incredible and it was one of the best weddings they had been to. Hornsbury Mill played a massive part in making this happen! Thank you Hornsbury, you gave us our dream day and I hope many more couples choose your venue to marry!

Perfect day, made even more perfect by the staff

We had the best wedding at Hornsbury Mill almost 1 year ago. We were both so anxious but Jane and the team made us feel so comfortable and took almost all the stress away (as a bride I don't think you can ever not be slightly stressed). They were able to help answer and queries we had and all the guests commented on their friendliness and how smoothly the day went. Would definitely recommend.

Ideal venue for our wedding

After 16 years together my now wife and I finally tied the knot. We wanted a very small, intimate wedding. This venue was perfect for us in every way. From the very first meeting to the wedding itself, staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Even with some minor adjustments on the day they ensured everything ran like clockwork, which allowed us to enjoy the day. The wonderful grounds allowed us to capture some beautiful photographs to allow us to remember this special day. We could not have wished for anything more.

An amazing place to tie the knot!

We enjoyed our day getting married at Hornsbury Mills, the weather was just amazing, we had a visit from the Peacock! The venue is really intimate and the staff were very friendly. The food and drinks packages were great and value for money. We hired the whole venue and our guest had no complaints and said the rooms were lovely with a smooth check in and out service. Our day went very smoothly. Thank you Hornsbury Mill.

A very lovely day indeed

The wedding was planned last minute after I had just had a baby. Nothing was too much fuss or too difficult for Jane and the team. We were made to feel like we were home as soon as we walked through the door. Jane was on hand whenever and for whatever we needed her for. Zoe was absolutely Exceptional even with tasks that wouldn't considerable be a "normal role." We truly had the best day of our lives.
