Just perfect!

We are so pleased we found Moorhead country weddings, the lake was the most tranquil and peaceful place for our ceremony. It was a day we will never forget. The function area was just perfect for our wedding celebrations to continue. Thank you Mandy Tessa and family ☺️

Stunning surroundings

I have been lucky to visit and cater at a few beautiful weddings at Moorhead and it’s one of my favourite venues. Not only does it have a lot of space to accommodate many people, but it also feels quite intimate. The stunning surroundings make it perfect for a countryside wedding. The owners of the venue have always been very welcoming. Flame and Dough

Garden picnic wedding

Your venue is just lovely, the views are beautiful. The grounds worked perfectly for our chilled garden picnic wedding. It was a worry not having a marquee as the weather is always a worry, but great knowing that we could use the indoor function area and bar if we needed to! We would love to do it all again!

Wedding viewing

Myself and my mum have just returned from a viewing at Moorhead Country Weddings, we were welcomed and shown around by Mandy who made us feel very welcome from the start, luckily the sun was shining and we were shown around the grounds, there was so much space and the views across the country side were stunning, we also walked down to lake which was a beautiful spot, and a wooded area which could be really quirky! We were opting for the use of the function area as a smaller wedding, and straight away I could see exactly how I would want it to look. We were offered a glass of fizz to go through pricing and any questions, which was a lot! and went well over our appointment time! Although we have a couple of other venues to look at we were very impressed with the friendliness and hospitality.
