Dorney Court Full Description
With its fairy tale gabled roofs, landscaped gardens and charming 12th Century church, Dorney Court is one of the UK’s most beautiful and complete country house wedding venues. Your entire wedding day can unfold on the estate, from the ceremony to late night partying in the perfectly renovated Coach House Barn. The gardens surrounding Dorney Court provide a lovely setting for drinks and photographs whether on lush green lawns or among the many flowerbeds and borders, while our picturesque courtyard, which adjoins the Coach House Barn, is a suntrap where guests can enjoy an almost Mediterranean feel as they celebrate. Whether you are looking to hold an intimate ceremony in The Great Hall, a traditional ceremony in St. James the Less Church (located on the estate), a wedding breakfast in The Coach House Barn or a large party in a marquee on the lawns, every wedding at Dorney Court is created especially for each client’s individual requirements to guarantee a unique, perfect day. A lovingly renovated self-catering cottage next to the Coach House Barn offers the bride, groom or guests luxurious romantic accommodation for their wedding day. Gale Cottage is tucked away in the heart of Dorney Court Estate and just footsteps from the Church and the wedding reception.

Riding so high!!
At the moment I am riding so high I’m struggling to put into words just how amazing yesterday was, but I couldn’t go off on honeymoon without personally thanking you for an incredible day…You 100% rose to the challenge and made all our dreams come true. Everyone I spoke to said it had been the best wedding they’d been to and we have to agree the food was incredible, the service impeccable, the cocktails gorgeous. The flow of the day was perfect. We honestly cannot thank you enough for everything you have done

Thank you so much for making our day so special
Thank you so much for making our day so special – the way that everything was managed so smoothly but without being over conspicuous, the food, the waiting staff, the bar staff – awesome! The venue rocked too and looked stunning! Everyone had a fantastic time so thank you so very much

Thank you so much!!
We had the most amazing day and I couldn’t quite believe how smoothly it ran without Alex or I needing to think about a single thing! There were a couple of moments when I remembered something I needed to ask you, looked up, and realised it was already done — from seamlessly moving everyone and everything outside when the weather was so good, to bringing the flowers across from the house to the barn so we could enjoy them for longer. It was also really special to be given five minutes on our own with a plate of canapés and a bottle of prosecco away from everyone – so thoughtful. Every single member of staff was friendly, professional and brilliant! Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the food either – and two of our vegetarians said it was the best food they had ever had at an event.Thanks again for everything you all did to make the day so special

THE BESTTT WEDDDING EVVERRRR
Oh my goodness where do I even start?! You made our day THE most perfect and amazing day. It was the best day of our lives. I honestly cannot thank you enough. Thank you doesn’t even seem like it shows enough gratitude! The day was PERFECT, it looked exactly how I had envisioned it (or better actually!) I know that the day wouldn’t have been as amazing without everyone working so hard behind the scenes, but I wanted to call out two people, in particular: Mark – He was working on the bar and he was just fantastic, made sure that Alex and I were taken care of all night, he remembered our drinks order and made sure we always had one ready for us to buy when we got to the bar. He was also super full of energy and just seemed so happy to be there! Annabel – Oh my GOSH, words are not enough to describe how amazing this woman was. She was a saint. She was a sea of calm in what must have been a chaotic day. She was so friendly and so helpful. She even carried my dress train at one point! Annabel was like superwoman and I am SO grateful to her for making our day as amazing as it was

Stunning wedding venue - thank you !!
We just wanted to say a big thank you for helping us achieve such a fantastic day, I know you put a lot of work into it behind the scenes and we are really grateful. The food was delicious – I only wish I could’ve eaten it all but I was too full of adrenalin so had barely any appetite! We also wanted to point out just how lovely all of the staff were, they did such a great job – please pass our thanks on
