Bride & Groom – Olly & Lauren

Everything was perfectly presented, with all the staff, especially Josie, our Personal Wedding Manager, who ensured all of our extra decorations were properly laid out and ready before our guests arrived.

All of our guests commented on how brilliant all the rooms were – they were surprised by how spacious and well-maintained they were. Josie and the whole staff were brilliant. We went to a wedding open day, and Linda took us around Gosfield Hall before we sat down to book. We felt immediately at ease, and really excited to get married there.

Amazing food – like the canapés, all of our guests praised the quality and quantity of the food we received.

DJ was brilliant and took on the songs we suggested. Everyone had a great time!

Bride & Groom – Micha & Ryan

Everything was perfect. We received so many compliments on how beautiful the venue is. We cannot fault the service at all. All staff were so friendly and professional and on hand.

Deborah was brilliant and went above and beyond. She was on hand for everything we needed in the lead-up to the wedding and on the actual day/morning after. Even when I realised I had left the stickers on the bottom of my shoes (as I was about to walk down the aisle), she was there to help. She ensured the whole day went smoothly and that all our guests were looked after. We can’t thank her enough.

We received so many compliments on the amount of food served and the quality of the BBQ. Everyone was so pleased.

The house was amazing, so warm and welcoming yet vast and it felt like everyone had space to explore. The rooms were amazing, and our guests complemented the amenities, access to the bar earlier than check-in and the smooth check-in process. The grounds were lovely. Such a great backdrop for pictures. The fountains, the candles. It made it so dreamy and romantic.

Personal Wedding Manager Faye is an absolute credit to Gosfield. Her personality, organisation and ability to manage everything thrown her way were amazing. Nothing felt too big for Faye, and she would often respond super quickly to our questions. All staff were lovely and went above and beyond. Friendly, professional, but still enough personality to make it seem like they genuinely loved what they were doing. Very aware, weddings are their business, and they probably have a variation of our wedding every week, but they felt energetic, polite and fun.

Bride & Groom – Laura & Josh

Gosfield Hall is absolutely STUNNING from the very first moment you step in, all the way round. The bridal suite truly is another world, and I honestly felt like royalty. The grounds are breathtaking. All the staff are very friendly and helpful with any questions we had before booking our wedding.

Tara was our Personal Wedding Manager, and I honestly couldn’t have done it without her. As my Husband is a serving officer in the Army, he was away a lot in the lead up to the wedding, but Tara made the whole build up feel stress-free and really helped me when I needed it. She was truly amazing, and I will miss working with her.

My husband and I truly couldn’t have chosen a more perfect venue than Gosfield Hall. In fact, it was the only venue we visited—once we found a place that offered absolutely everything we were looking for, there was no need to look any further. We honestly can’t suggest any improvements, as Gosfield Hall already delivers above and beyond expectations in every way. You are all doing an incredible job. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making our day so special. It’s a memory we will cherish forever. Mr & Mrs Gurden.

Bride & Groom – Daniel & Leanne

Everything was perfect. Our guests were so impressed with every part of the house and all of the finer details. The grounds looked very well kept, and guests were all impressed with the bedrooms.

Faye was fantastic and really looked after us so well, and all the staff were helpful on the day. Faye made our day very special with the attention she gave us. We can’t rate her high enough. The food was delicious. Everyone loved it. Faye was amazing from the moment we started dealing with her to the moment we left after breakfast. We don’t remember other names, but everyone we encountered leading up to the wedding and especially on the day itself was so friendly and helpful.

The night manager was also really helpful in finding a toy elephant one of our nieces had dropped around the house.

The presentation of the house was wonderful; it came out exactly how we had hoped. Before our wedding, Linda answered all our questions and walked us through all the options and services. Jocie went above and beyond and really made our experience memorable.

We want to say a big thank you to the team for their patience and service. They accommodated our changes and were really warm and kind. Thank you all. I wish there were an option for outstanding. Jocie was amazing, honestly, she really made our day amazing. The guest has been very complimentary of her service and warmth towards them. Answering all of our questions and making sure the day ran smoothly. Guests were really impressed with the amount of food options available and loved the food.

The house is beautiful, and we loved the decorations for Christmas. The furniture is gorgeous, and we loved our ceremony room especially. The Honeymoon Suite was incredible, and we really felt like royalty staying there! Beautiful from the outside and gorgeous grounds.

All of our guests commented on how lovely the bedrooms are. As already mentioned, we adored our room, it was breathtaking!

All the staff were fantastic, especially our Personal Wedding Manager, Faye, who is just incredible. There aren’t enough words to reflect how wonderful Faye is; not only did she help us feel prepared and supported in the build-up, but she was unbelievable in making sure everything ran smoothly, and she anticipated everything we needed before we even asked! She is just incredible!!!

Fantastic food, all our guests commented on how delicious it was.

Absolutely beautiful, all the guests could not believe how beautiful it was! The grounds are stunning and clearly well-maintained! Someone was always available to speak to you; we got to attend different open days and events.

Tara was an absolute dream! She helped us from making sure we were on track at the start of our journey with her right the way through to the end of the day and beyond – she is fantastic at her job, and we genuinely felt she was as invested in our day as we were!

Everyone commented to say how fantastic the food was! Everyone loved the cocktails! Tara was absolutely fantastic.

Bride & Groom – Olivia & James

Internally, the house is absolutely beautiful and spotless. Jocie was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She was always available to answer our questions in the lead-up to the wedding and truly listened to everything we asked for.

On the day itself, she ensured everything ran smoothly and exactly as planned. Knowing she was there supporting us was incredibly reassuring and took a huge weight off our shoulders. We couldn’t have asked for a better Personal Wedding Manager!

The food was incredible! So many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed it too!

We were so lucky to have had the most amazing wedding day at Gosfield Hall.

A special thank you to Jocie. She honestly had such a calming, positive impact on our day and went above and beyond to make it so special. Nothing was ever too much of an ask, and we are so thankful for how she looked after us, our family and friends.

The whole day was so smooth, and she made sure we always knew what was happening and talked me through everything! Thank you so much, you are amazing!
