an amazing venue to start our journey together

We had our wedding at Hawkesyard Estate on 27.10.17. It was such a wonderful day and we can’t thank Paul, Sarah and the rest of the team enough. Right from our first meeting with Paul to when we were leaving the morning after our wedding we have loved every minute of our time at the Hawkesyard Estate. The sun was shining for us everyone commented throughout the day how wonderful our venue was. The food was exceptional and the whole service impeccable. What an amazing venue to start our journey together as husband and wife we have such special memories and are so happy it started at Hawkesyard Estate. We Can't wait to visit you all again when our names are on the bell tower. Thank you all again for everything you did for us..

I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars

I wish I could give this place more than 5 star Right from the moment we met Paul to enquire about a wedding until the day itself on 23rd September, the service we received was exceptional. Paul you are fantastic. The day itself was perfect. The grounds looked beautiful, the food was excellent and the service was brilliant. A special mention to Emily and Mary who helped to make our day special. Nothing was to much trouble. They even got a sewing kit out for me when I ripped the strap on my dress. We can't thank you all enough for helping to make our special day so perfect for us. Highly recommend Hawkesyard to anyone. Wish we could do it all over again! We will be back to see you all again soon x

Describe the best wedding that happened at Hawkesyard Estate?

That's too hard to answer! We love EVERY wedding we have the pleasure of hosting!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Ask questions! Never ever be afraid to ask questions.... it is what we are here for. It's also not what most people do everyday - but luckily for you... we do! Therefore we should have the answers to your questions as this isn't the first time we've done this. We are always happy to answers questions (however silly you think they may seem) and offer advice and help along your planning journey.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

We had a bride who provided her florist with antique china teacups - that were her grandmothers - which the florist dressed with beautiful flowers and then they were used as centre pieces. It was a really lovely way for the brides grandmother to be part of their special day even though she was no longer with them.

Where’s the best photo spot at Hawkesyard Estate?

That's hard to say - there are lots! I think most of us would agree that we love photos taken from the bottom of our wedding walk, looking over the lawns towards the hall. Photographers can position the happy couple under the grand tree situated in the lawns and have the hall in the background.

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at Hawkesyard Estate?

What’s your favourite canapé?

Warm cheese twists!

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

Vegetable samosas from our evening buffet... these always go down very very well with wedding guests

What is Hawkesyard Estate most unique feature?

We have a bell tower within the grounds, which has the names of all our couples on if they had their civil ceremony with us. It is common to see past couples coming up to the estate to take a selfie in front of their name on their anniversaries!
