- PPaul J25/11/2024Rookery Wedding - August 2024Rookery Wedding - August 2024We hired Rookery Hall as our wedding venue in August and thoroughly believe it played a massive part in us having the best day. Not only are the grounds and buildings beautiful, but is more about the people who work there who make it feel very warm. The reception team were lovely upon our arrival and everyone (from the chefs, to the bartenders and waitresses, to the team who helped coordinate our wedding itself) was on the top of their game and our guests were extremely impressed by them too.We hired Rookery Hall as our wedding venue in August and thoroughly believe it played a massive part in us having the best day.
