The Best Experiance
We just wanted to say a huge ‘Thank you’ to all of the staff at Blakelands for making our wedding day so perfect. 10.09.2021. This was our fourth wedding date due to COVID restrictions and the staff could not have been more helpful or accommodating during our wedding planning. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and we fell in love with the venue from the first time we visited back in 2018. The bridal loft was a huge selling point for me for getting ready on the morning of our wedding! The day itself went so smoothly and the whole team were so well organised to ensure all of our bridal party and guests were well looked after. The reception and evening food was delicious and all of the guest rooms including the bridal suite were decorated beautifully. There are so many beautiful places for photo opportunities both inside and out of the venue we were spoilt for choice. We have visited Blakelands on many occasions for their wedding Fayres, open days etc and have always enjoyed our visits and feel we have got to know Chloe, Heather, Paul and the team during our long engagement! We know that anyone looking to book Blakelands as a wedding venue in the future will have the BEST experience as we really can’t recommend this wedding venue and the Blakelands staff enough! Thank you for all you have done for us over the past few years - we wish we could do our whole day again with you! Mr and Mrs Vickers

Amazing Venue
We had our wedding here on the 30th July 2022 and the place and staff are absolutely amazing. From the moment you get there until the minute you leave they take care of everything. The grounds are truly amazing and was the perfect venue for our special day. The food was outstanding and enough to have fed twice the amount of guests we had. I would 100% recommend this venue to anyone as they tailor the day to however you request. I would definitely give more than 5 stars but unfortunately that’s the highest I can give

We got married here in July and it was honestly everything we could hope for. The staff were so friendly and worked so hard to make our day run smoothly. We honestly could not fault a single thing. We spent the past 2 years preparing for our day and with the help of Heather, Paul, Chloe and the team they made our dream wedding come to life. The venue worked so hard alongside all of our chosen supplies to make this day possible and was always 100% honest with us of what could and couldn’t work when we threw ideas at them and how they could accommodate to what we wanted. So for anyone looking at the Blakelands we definitely both recommend this as a wedding venue to consider.

Fantastic Venue
What an amazing venue to say I had the best day of my life is an understatement, everything was so well managed I was not a stressed out bride. Blakelands is run like clockwork ensuring everything is prefect, the staff are also brilliant and well the food is another story absolutely beautiful. All that attending my wedding say its the best wedding they have been too so for me that says it all.

Perfect Venue, Perfect Day
When we first visited Blakelands we knew straight away that this was our venue. It’s not just the stunning views of the house and grounds (although I can’t say enough about how gorgeous the place is!) but also how wonderful the people are. Heather and Chloe were friendly and welcoming from the start, it sort of felt like we’s always known them! No question was silly, nothing was ever too much to ask for. On the day itself Paul and his team ran the event so smoothly I just felt like I breezed through it. Every single member of staff is ready to help, to congratulate you, or bring you a drink, and they always remember your name and welcome you with a big smile! The tips to get me down the aisle, ensuring my dress was laid out perfectly behind me.. I’m so grateful for everyone’s care and help. They also kept us so well fed! The food was divine, and I’m especially appreciative of whoever thought to wrap some baguettes up for me and my husband to find in the bridal suite so that we got some food of the night! Our guests loved their rooms and their meals, everyone has been very complimentary. Heather said it’s a leap of faith to book a wedding venue - but with Blakelands it’s an easy choice. Thank you for a perfect day!
