- JJulie12/12/2023Perfect Wedding Venue Perfect Wedding VenueWedding planner Dharby was fantastic. We wanted to book quickly and she invited us to meet her the same day and fitted us in for six weeks time, although she had earlier dates. It was effortless for us as she arranged everything and bespoke too. The venue looked wonderful inside and out and all our guests commented what a great venue it was for a wedding. We would highly recommend The Old Rectory and are really grateful for their excellent and professional service.Wedding planner Dharby was fantastic.

Beautiful, breathtaking and one that can be filled with light, love and laughter. We found just that.

She did so with excellence, grace and the kind of banter we needed.We were looking for a venue that would embody our relationship.
