The Perfect Venue

Makeney Hall was the perfect venue for our wedding. The grounds are beautiful for photographs, and we got married in the Woodland Lodge which was picturesque (despite being at the beginning of April!) The venue itself is gorgeous, and whilst we decorated tables and chairs, the conservatory looks lovely as it is - it really doesn't take much to look like a dream wedding breakfast set-up. Aside from how things looked, the food was AMAZING - so many guests commented on how nice the food was. We ha

Perfect Wedding

Makeney Hall and all the staff gave us the perfect wedding day. From the moment we booked communication was brilliant. Due to lots of family travelling to the location the night before the wedding we asked for sandwiches to be put on for anyone arriving late. This was no trouble and they kept putting out fresh food which Everyone loved. The day of the wedding was perfect. The outdoor venue was beautiful. Dean, Stacy, Ian and team couldn’t do enough for the whole day even helping our elderly guests down to the ceremony location and bringing chairs if they couldnt use the wooden benches. It was only after the day I found out there had been a delay with one of our supplier as the team handled everything. The food was amazing and people were complimenting the meal and buffet for days after. You dream of your wedding for so long and I’m so grateful to Makeney hall for making mine the reality id dreamed off.

We had an amazing day

Our wedding was a truly amazing day. The staff was fantastic from the smallest of things like the breakfast tray in our room, to looking after me (the bride) making sure everything went perfect, the outside woodland area were we said our vows was stunning, to the conservatory for our wedding breakfast meal.

A day for us to remember

To Stacey & Wilma, I just wanted to say a massive thank you for all of your support in the run up to the day and then also on the day itself, I know it was a bit stressful with all the restrictions etc but it honestly couldn't have gone any better, we had the best day and both of you and your team were all just wonderful. So thank you again, you really did help make it a day for us to remember. We'll hopefully stay with you as hotel guests sometime in the future, perhaps a little anniversary trip one year so will hopefully see you again.

Perfect from start to finish

Just wanted to say sorry we haven’t been in touch before now, we still want to send you and the staff at Makeney something as a thank you for being so amazing in the lead up to our wedding and on the day itself, so it’s on the top of my to do list to organise that now - we’ve had so much to sort since coming back from our honeymoon that we’re finally now able to get round to all our thank yous! The wedding day was absolutely perfect from start to finish, and both Danni and Dean were amazing with us. All the other staff on the bar and serving food etc were brilliant as well, all so friendly and professional. We honestly could not be happier and so much of that is down to you and anyone involved on the day itself! The food went down really well and we had rave reviews about the pies and the bbq from both vegans and non-vegans, everyone loved their food! All our guests have said what an amazing day it was and we are so grateful to you for helping us make it the day that it was, thank you so much.
