It was perfect!It was perfect!
If you are thinking of choosing this venue you won’t regret it. We had our wedding here 3 weeks ago and it was perfect! The little barn was gorgeous for the ceremony. The conservatory was stunning and such a great space for the breakfast and evening, with the bar close. The grounds and the rooms where we stayed were beautiful - we honestly couldn’t have asked for anything more. It was stress free and the staff were on hand to help with anything we needed!If you are thinking of choosing this venue you won’t regret it. We had our wedding here 3 weeks ago and it was perfect!

I wanted to express my gratitude to yourself, Shelley, The master of ceremonies and your wonderful caring staff at Thames Oxford. The wedding was amazing, we all had such a wonderful time. Shelley took great care of my Daughter and all of us and she could not have done anymore, Thank you Shelley. In a world of tech, it is so nice to stay at a Hotel where Customer Service seems to be at the heart of all the staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Even the rain could not dampen the event.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and your colleagues for the amazing job everyone did on our wedding day! My guests were blown away not only by the beautiful venue but the food and how helpful the staff were! It was flawless from start to finish! The Master of Ceremony was so helpful and super friendly. He definitely made the day go very smoothly! I was fully prepared that there is no such thing as the perfect day and that there would be hiccups but as far as I’m aware there were none!
