    Charlotte, Teegan and the team were amazing at helping us organise such a special wedding day. The building and sunken garden were beautiful for our wedding which took place outdoors in April. The apartments above were perfect for hosting family members travelling a distance to our wedding. I highly recommend working with Portfolio Caterers too if booking at Lanwades. Thanks again to the lovely team! 🥰

    We had our wedding at Lanwades in early July 2025. It was a wonderful day. Lanwades is a beautiful venue, and we were lucky to be able to have our ceremony outside in the glorious sunken garden! The inside rooms are lovely too, and allowed people who wanted to chat more than dance to have a space to do so in the evening. But the very best thing about Lanwades are the people: Charlotte was incredible in helping us organise the wedding, give her advice and answer all our questions very clearly and quickly, and she and Tegan were amazing on the day in making everything run smoothly, including helping with looking after our infant daughter! Thank you thank you thank you for everything you did!

    From the very first moment we booked Lanwades Hall, we knew we had chosen somewhere special — but nothing could have prepared us for just how magical the experience would be. We had the entire venue, including the beautiful rooms, for the whole weekend, and from start to finish we were made to feel like people, not a paycheck. Every interaction was warm, genuine, and full of care. Our questions, requests, and ideas were met not only with open minds but with enthusiasm, professionalism, and a sense of fun that made the whole journey a joy. The team at Lanwades Hall is exceptional, but we have to give a special mention to Charlotte. She was nothing short of outstanding. Her industry knowledge guided us to our caterers, helped us with our venue setup, and ensured we had the perfect team of suppliers to make our vision a reality. Quite simply, without Charlotte, our wedding weekend wouldn’t have been as magical as it was. She kept everything running smoothly, but also gave us the time and space to truly take it all in. She made sure we were fed, watered, and cared for throughout the day the kind of thoughtful touches that mean the world when you’re swept up in the whirlwind of emotions. The process from booking to the wedding day was seamless and easy, and when the big day arrived, everything fell into place effortlessly. Lanwades Hall itself is breathtaking a venue that, even without decoration, speaks for itself. The gardens are like something out of a dream, with beauty that is simply impossible to capture in words. We chose to add our own personal touches and bring in our favourite vendors, but we could have done nothing at all and it still would have been stunning. Ryan and I cannot recommend Lanwades Hall, Charlotte, and the whole team more highly. There are very few words that can truly express how grateful we are for everything they did for us. Thank you for giving us, for giving me, the wedding of our dreams. With love and gratitude, Lisa and Ryan Lee
