Mitchell Hall, Venue Cranfield

As a way of introduction my name is Mark and my daughter, Sophie, and her partner were married in Mitchell Hall at the weekend (15th June). In addition to the wedding I, and others, took advantage of the hotel facilities, staying over for a couple of nights. The venue provided all that was required; a good layout, light and airy and the staff were unfailingly polite, efficient and always smiling. The food was tasteful, plentiful and well presented.

We just wanted to say a massive massive thank you to you, Sandra, Will and the wider Mitchell Hall team. I don't think words can adequately express how fabulous the team were on the day and the amount of compliments we got for the venue. The team went out of their way to make sure everyone had the best time and were so fun to celebrate with, nothing was too much trouble for the team.

We had our wedding at Mitchell Hall in Cranfield on the 8th June 2024 and it was the best day of our lives. The day went as smooth as we could have imagined and we were extremely happy with all the staff working the event who were friendly and would go above & beyond to meet our needs. We have had no end of compliments on how amazing the food was. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and still thinking about it days later! Overall it was amazing !

We had our wedding at Mitchell Hall in Cranfield on the 8th June 2024 and it was the best day of our lives. Francesca was amazing from start to finish and was always on hand and responsive to emails whenever we had a question (even the last minute ones the days before leading up to the event!). Kyle and I stayed at Mitchell Hall on opposite ends of the hotel which made it that little bit more special in the build up to the wedding. The whole process from viewing the venue, to securing a date, menu tasting and the multiple appointments we had with Fran were all worth it and all smooth. It was so lovely to get to know the staff and build up those relationships ready for the big day. The day went as smooth as we could have imagined and we were extremely happy with all the staff working the event who were friendly and would go above & beyond to meet our needs. A huge thank you to William and the team who were front of house, bar staff, receptionists and all the chefs involved (and everyone else who worked the event behind the scenes!). We have had no end of compliments on how amazing the food was. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and still thinking about it days later! The starter and main was piping hot and the brownie was the perfect dessert to finish off the meal. The coffee, teas and chocolates also went down a treat! No one left hungry either after the huge selection of tasty nibbles for the evening reception. I’m still getting messages about the mini sliders and how good they were!! We had a few requests for the venue on the day and they met every single one with ease. For example - moving of top table flowers from ceremony room to reception room, moving some decorations into bar area, amending the usual 5 chair set up in the ceremony room to 4 chairs to leave a gap for the bridesmaids etc. Nothing was too much to ask for! We had a slight blip in the evening with a selfie pod we hired, I let William know and within 20 minutes of calling the supplier, they’d arrived, fixed it and then went back home again. I was super impressed with this level of customer service! Thank you again to the supplier & William for sorting super quickly! Even the security guards and night team were fantastic when I was unable to sleep - I took a walk around the grounds early morning and had a lovely chat with them all! A huge thank you to every single person involved in our wedding day, both in the lead up to the event and the actual day itself. We couldn’t have done it without you all and highly recommend the venue for those couples on the hunt for their wedding. Overall it was amazing value for money and the team really do care and will happily try to accommodate and meet any special requests!

The day ran so smoothly, and actually ahead of time so we managed to capture some spontaneous moments throughout the day. Can we give a massive shout out to William, he was amazing, checking in with us the day before, no job was too big or small. A great rehearsal run through and even asking if there's anything else to be done at the end of the night before.

The best team who are there to help make it a special day. The guests loved the food we had, cider onion soup, marry me chicken and deconstructed oreo cheesecake all were a hit including the vegetarian dish of a fritata. William guided our day perfectly and we even managed to be ahead of schedule. We stayed at the venue and that made a difference avoiding travelling to the venue. We had a lovely breakfast and it made all the guests come together by socialising the night before and morning after. Amazing value for money for full use of the venue with the freedom to be as creative as we could be. The DJ they provided was amazing too, really read the room and mixed songs well. Highly recommend this venue, Fran will make all your wedding dreams come true!
