Sutton Bonington Hall

Incredible venue for a wedding! What makes this venue special is you can really make it your own, the grounds are stunning and Portfolio Events was an excellent coordinator of the day. We hoped for a party and that’s exactly what we got! No corkage was a huge plus for us and Portfolio were great at ensuring everyone always had a drink in hand. Book this venue, you won’t regret it!

Sutton Bonington Hall is a beautiful and intimate wedding venue, perfect for capturing beautiful memories. The venue offers a variety of stunning locations, both inside the historic home and throughout the picturesque grounds, which are impeccably maintained. The venue also provides space for guests to spread out, ensuring a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere.

Couldn’t have wished for a better venue for our wedding. Loved it!!

Sutton Bonington Hall provided us with the most special wedding day that we could have wished for. After booking, we were put in touch with the incredible Portfolio Team who were able to answer any questions and queries in the run up to the day. On the day of the wedding the Portfolio team were amazingly attentive and looked after all of the guests. We felt privileged to get married in such a beautiful location and can’t recommend the venue and the Portfolio team highly enough.

The most beautiful intimate wedding venue! The grounds and garden are immaculate, providing plenty of nooks for younger wedding guests to play or hide, but also has nice open spaces that seem to be made for garden games! Inside is just as lovely! The real showstopper is the conservatory, which has a ‘living wall’ - it is covered with Jasmine and has fairy lights that come on in the evening.

I had my wedding in September 2022. The venue were amazing! It was a multi culture wedding and we worked to customise the celebration to fit both cultures including food and drinks. The decor was fabulous and I wouldn't have had my wedding anywhere else.

Sutton Bonington Hall is a rare gem of a venue that is hard to come by. It is grand but not imposing, elegant without being stuffy, with the most beautiful private grounds I have ever seen, in an intimate setting that makes you feel like you’ve come home. What sets this beautiful private venue apart from the rest is the owner, Claire. We queried dozens and dozens of wedding venues - five star hotels, national trust properties, castles and manor houses - and yet nothing came close to Claire in terms of her commitment to making this a happy day for the bridal couple. Sutton Bonington is a private residence, and Claire made us feel like we were part of the family. It never felt corporate or impersonal, and yet Claire was incredibly efficient and knowledgable about the wedding industry, advising us on exactly what to do, giving us thoughtful feedback on our plans, and to top it off had the fastest response times I have ever seen! Claire would go out of her way just to make sure we were on track and for that we are so grateful. You really want to be able to trust the vendors you have selected for your wedding, and I truly can’t think of a better team to have by your side when you’re planning this special day. If I could give 10 stars, I would!

I would be delighted to write a positive review about Sutton Bonington Hall, a beautiful wedding venue that was expertly planned by Jel. From the moment we arrived at Sutton Bonington Hall, we were impressed by the stunning setting. The Hall is a grand, historic building that has been lovingly restored and maintained, and it exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The grounds are equally impressive, with well-manicured lawns and gardens that provide the perfect backdrop for a wedding ceremony and reception. Jel, our wedding planner, was an absolute delight to work with. She was friendly, professional, and incredibly organized, and she went out of her way to make sure that every aspect of our wedding was perfect. From the initial planning stages to the day of the wedding, Jel was always available to answer our questions and provide guidance and support. The staff at Sutton Bonington Hall were equally wonderful. They were friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure that our guests were comfortable and happy throughout the day. The food was delicious, and the service was impeccable. Overall, we cannot recommend Sutton Bonington Hall and Jel highly enough. If you are looking for a stunning wedding venue with exceptional service and attention to detail, then look no further than Sutton Bonington Hall. Jel and her team will work tirelessly to ensure that your special day is everything you've ever dreamed of and more

We had the most incredible wedding at Sutton Bonington Hall, and cannot recommend it highly enough as a venue. We were looking for somewhere that would cater for 100 guests, but would still feel cosy and intimate. Sutton Bonington was perfect in this respect, as it’s first and foremost a family home. The house and gardens are beautiful, and there are several different rooms and spaces which meant that our guests could spread out during the afternoon and evening. We were particularly keen to have somewhere quieter for our more introverted guests to retreat, and the library was perfect for this. Claire, the owner, was so helpful from the very first meeting and knows the house and gardens well, so she was able to give great recommendations for how to structure our day. She was also extremely patient and answered all our many questions! Portfolio Events are the preferred suppliers for catering and they also act as event managers as well. Again, we cannot recommend them highly enough. The food was absolutely delicious, lots of people said how good it was, including our guests with special dietary requirements. They were really flexible and enabled us to tailor the food and drinks menus to suit us. Charlotte met with us in advance and helped us plan the day in terms of food and timings etc. and helped us make sure the day went as smoothly as possible and we didn't have to worry about anything on the day. She was really organised and took such detailed notes of what we wanted, and helped us make it really personal and unique to us. We were able to set up the afternoon before, which meant we didn't have to worry about anything on the day of the wedding. On the day, Jel and the team were fantastic! All our guests said how helpful and friendly the staff were, and the team made Tom and I feel so special. They brought us drinks especially and made sure we got food throughout the day (it's easy to miss out on such a whirlwind of a day!) There were also a couple of things that didn't go to plan (due to me feeling unwell!), but Jel and the team were incredibly flexible and worked with our bridal party to adapt to the situation and made me feel so supported. It was wonderful to know that we were in such experienced and capable hands, and we didn't have to worry on the day at all. In terms of entertainment we were able to have garden games during the afternoon, and a Silent Disco in the evening. We also had a Photo Booth in the main entrance hall. It was really special to be able to stay in the bridal suite on the evening of the wedding - and lovely to be able to just head upstairs after our guests were gone. On the morning after, Claire had kindly set up breakfast for Tom and I in the Library - which was such a lovely touch and a great way to end an amazing experience. We wish we could do it all over again! Thank you so much for letting us celebrate our wedding at your family home Claire, and to Charlotte, Jel and the rest of the Portfolio Team for making our day so special.

We would like to say a huge thank you for everything that you did for our wedding day. We had the most amazing day and that was down to you! From the meeting that we had before the big day to you helping us set up and most importantly doing everything we asked and more! you are so welcoming, happy and nothing too much trouble. We wont forget you! Keep being amazing!
