highly recommend here to anybody for their special

I cannot recommend here enough as a perfect wedding venue, my husband and I were married here this year on 13th April 2019, the whole team were amazing and took all of the stress out of the day, everything ran smoothly throughout the day and night. Mandie Sears and Matt Ray are the people to speak to here, they both are amazing at organising every little detail of your special day so it is perfect and they are really lovely people too and make you feel at ease. So I highly recommend here to anybody for their special day.

All of our guests said they had the best day.

The beginning of the month we had our wedding here. We booked the bridal suite the night before, had the ceremony and reception here and also had the bridal suite the night of the wedding. The staff were all absolutely amazing and nothing was too much for them! They were all incredibly helpful and the whole day just flowed with ease. The DJ was lovely and played really good songs that had us all up dancing all night. The food was lovely and there wasn't a single problem with all 55 orders! The bridal suite is lovely. The bed is incredibly comfortable and the bath is huge! Would definitely recommend to everyone! One very happy bride and groom. All of our guests said they had the best day. Thank you all so much!!!

Thank you so so much for our wonderful wedding day

To all the amazing people at The Cedars who made our wedding day amazing. We both wanted to say a massive thank you to all the staff who made our day as special as it was. It was truly amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed the day from start to finish. Without all the care and attention to everything, the day wouldn't have been as great as it was. We cannot thank you all enough. You are all amazing. Thank you so so much for our wonderful wedding day, love Tina and Mark
