The Gardens

We had our wedding at The Gardens in Yalding during their winter season this year, 9th November 2024, and it was everything we could have hoped for and more! The venue is dressed for winter, and looks so sparkly, cosy and beautiful, even before we had put our own bits in. The venue suits the autumn/winter so well, and has a completely different feel to the summer, which is what made it feel so special for us. The staff were amazing - everything went absolutely seamlessly and they handled everything with a chilled calm attitude which made us feel like that had absolutely everything under control (which they did!). Could not fault the day and would 100% recommend to anyone! Also what's so nice is you can return to your wedding venue for dinner when the tipi restaurant is open which is such a nice thought! Loved every minute!!

We recently got married at The Gardens and from the moment we booked (2yrs prior!) right up to the day the staff could not do more for us. Jaime and Jose were incredible on the day and made sure that our day, not only went to plan, but that it ran like clockwork which took all the stress away. The food for the wedding breakfast was great, all the guests commented on how lovely the food was and the staff were exceptional throughout. We got married in October and the venue is stunning during this time of year with all the autumnal colours throughout the gardens which made our day even more special. I cannot recommend this wedding venue enough, 10/10 and worth every penny! Thank you!

We held our wedding at The Gardens in October 2024 & we can honestly say it was the best day of our lives! I work in a wedding venue myself, and was therefore very picky when it came to choosing a venue, and The Gardens did not disappoint! Special shout out to Beth who looked after us on the day. From the first initial enquiry, right through to the day itself, they made planning so easy (especially the computer software they use, which is ideal for type A brides)! They were quick to respond to my queries, and were so friendly & attentive! The venue itself is stunning! We were lucky enough to have an outdoor ceremony amongst the autumn leaves, but the indoor tipi is equally as beautiful. All of our guests have commented how tasty & hot the food was, and there was a great selection when choosing our menu! It was so cosy in the evening too with the fire in the tipi, and the DJ was brilliant! If I could re-do the day all over again, I would choose The Gardens every time! We will be back again very soon to enjoy a meal in the tipi restaurant! Thank you all again!

Can not thank “The Gardens” enough for allowing us to create the wedding we always wanted! From the original enquiry, to last orders at the bar, the team couldn’t do enough for us. We will forever recommend this little gem of a wedding venue to anyone who asks. Perfection at it’s best!! xx

From the moment we first looked around The Gardens we knew we'd be getting married there. What a fantastic and beautiful venue. It was everything and more we could have hoped for. Nothing was too much trouble and there was always someone on hand to help with any questions we had. On our big day we were made to feel so welcome and The whole team at The Gardens were fab and a delight to deal with. We couldn't have asked for a better day.

Myself and husband had the perfect wedding at The Gardens. Our package included the venue, food and DJ. We opted for the BBQ for a relaxed vibe which everyone loved. The food in the evening was also very delicious. The staff made sure it ran like clockwork so we didn't need to worry about timings on our special day. The staff are also very responsive and helpful in the run-up to the wedding - I emailed a lot of questions and they always responded promptly. You use a wedding portal that the team at The Gardens send to you to input and plan your wedding day so it is very well organised. We had quite a few kids at our wedding and they loved running around the gardens. Lucky for us the sun was out. We'd highly recommend The Gardens for anyone looking for a venue for their big day. A big thank you to everyone in the team that made it so special. Mr & Mrs S

We had our wedding at The Gardens in early October and the gardens were in full autumn colour. Bex and her team were so helpful, answering all our questions as we were planning and then making sure the day ran smoothly. The food was delicious and the DJ delivered exactly what we had asked for. It was the perfect venue for us, not just for its setting but also its value for money, quality and service.

We had a wonderful wedding reception, at The Gardens, in August 2024. The venue was beautiful, the food was delicious (all vegetarian) and the staff were very efficient. Our guests all commented on what a lovely venue it was, even on the hottest day of the year! Communication via email was excellent and we were able to organise absolutely everything via our online portal. It did take a fair amount of time to enter all the information they required, but it meant everything went smoothly. The only slight downside was all the leftover food had to be binned due to their strict food policy. Which was a shame as we wanted to avoid food waste and would have preferred to take it away with us. We hope, at the very least, they make a compost heap to dispose of compostable food in the future, which will also feed their beautiful gardens! The other slight issue was the band kept using the bridal suit to change and freshen up in, as there wasn't enough room for them in the office they were asked to use. Not ideal when I popped up to change dresses in the evening! A wonderful day though, which we all thoroughly enjoyed!

After we first visited The Gardens, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. As people who love being in the countryside, all the green space was beautiful. We were also particularly drawn to the exclusive access to the venue and the use of the Sonas system which made inputting and personalising every detail of our day easy. The inspiration and VIP events we attended beforehand were a great help for our planning. Everyone we came into contact with at The Gardens were so professional, knowledgeable and always happy to help with any query we had. Beth was our coordinator on the day and was so lovely and helpful with everything, ensuring the day ran smoothly and that we didn’t need to worry about anything. So many of our guests have commented on how amazing the venue was, from the scenery to the food and drink. We can’t wait to come back to visit again in the future during the winter months to enjoy the food again at the Tipi restaurant (which is equally as lovely)!

I want to thank The Gardens for being the venue of our dreams on our wedding day! The outdoor setting is absolutely breathtaking with endless photo opportunities that made our day even more special. The food was amazing and the staff went above and beyond. I honestly can’t find a single fault with this venue!
