Fantastic wedding Fantastic wedding
The Fishpond was the most fantastic wedding venue for us as a laidback couple. It was reasonably priced and also super flexible - we could pretty much do anything. We were able to have our dog with us during the day too which just made it for us. Everyone commented how amazing the staff and food were, as well as how beautiful the room looked. In fact, our photographer said it was the best food he'd ever had at a wedding! Our wedding planner Liley was absolutely fantastic.

They did it our way They did it our way
We've just had our wedding at The Fishpond and we have to report that it was the greatest day of our lives. All made possible by the flexible approach of the venue. We were tired of viewing wedding venues with high prices and limited choices. Everyone complimented the food options where they were able to pick from a number of options avoiding us having to compromise on just one thing that hopefully everyone would enjoy.

Absolutely outstanding from start to finish!Absolutely outstanding from start to finish!
When we got engaged we knew we wanted a more casual and laid back wedding compared to most, and when we viewed The Fishpond for the first time we knew it was the perfect venue for us. The rooms are beautiful, the staff are so friendly and helpful, and Liley the wedding co-ordinator is an absolute star. No question was a stupid question for Liley and no request was too much either, she was happy to listen to our ideas and offer guidance and ideas to help us have the most perfect day. On the day, Liley and the rest of the staff made the day run perfectly without any of the wedding party having to stress about timings or schedules or where we had to be. All of our guests were blown away by how beautiful the venue was and how lovely the day was. The food during the day was absolutely phenomenal (and so much of it too) and the evening buffet was a huge success among the evening guests. Thank you so much to The Fishpond for helping us have the perfect day!

Our Dream WeddingOur Dream Wedding
My husband and I got married at The Fishpond in August 2023. It was the wedding of our dream. Everything went so perfectly. The rooms (the ballroom and the Raft) and the terrace were perfect for our group. Liley, our wedding co-ordinator, was always helpful. The sound system was fab for our band. We are both vegan and had asked for all the food served to be vegan friendly. The chef and his team did an amazing job and the food was absolutely divine. We couldn't have wished for a better wedding. Thank you everyone at The Fishpond for making our wedding a dream come true. My husband and I got married at The Fishpond in August 2023.

We chose the fishpond for our wedding as we could have it all happen in one place which made it all easier for everyone. We also had a fabulous buffet which we needed nut free,dairy free and also gluten free and they accommodated all our needs. Liley the events manager was always there to help with all the details and answer any questions we had. She was very helpful. Not that we are doing it again but if I were to do it all again we would go to The Fishpond.

Thank you for a great afternoon . Thanks for all of your hard work, plus the chefs. We had so many positive comments about the venue and food from our guests. Also, we really appreciated the fact that people could linger in the ballroom until they were ready to leave. Everyone really enjoyed themselves Thanks again . Thank you for a great afternoon .
