The Keeper and the Dell

I'm a wedding photographer so have been witness to so many incredible wedding venues in my time, but The Keeper and The Dell has to be one of my absolute favourites! They stand out from the crowd with their warmth, joy, free spirit and seamless organisation. If you book this venue for your wedding you're in for an absolute treat!

We feel so lucky to have gotten married at The Keeper and the Dell. Its an amazing venue and Lolly and Gemma will ensure everything runs perfectly on the day.. They also gave us recommendations on which food catering companies to use, florists and bands all of whom were brilliant.. Thank you so much for everything!

We had our wedding at The Keeper and the Dell in July 2019. From the moment we first visited the venue, we were both completely hooked and knew we had to get married there. The venue is surrounded by beautiful trees and greenery with wild flowers and twinkling lighting at night. We loved the unusual dell area with the marquee at the base of a grassy stepped type amphitheatre (where our guests sat for the ceremony) and the vintage barn full of quirky odds and ends and colourful decor (which reminded us both of our own house and why we felt so at home there). We also loved that The Keeper and the Dell had lots of variety in the setting with different areas to enjoy so you weren’t just confined to one marquee/hall for the day. We just immediately felt relaxed and comfortable there. Lolly and Gemma who helped coordinate our wedding from start to finish were so helpful and organised, sending detailed emails and keeping us fully in the loop. As well as making suggestions for vendors and helping with everything from timings to drink suggestions. As well as our initial visit (it looked just like the pictures but better!) we had two additional site visits which were really helpful but all the information discussed was always forwarded to us in a comprehensive email and Lolly was always on hand to answer any questions (and we had a few!) so they mostly just gave us more opportunities to enjoy the venue. However, if site visits aren’t possible right now I imagine it would just make it even more exciting turning up there on the day! We loved the flexibility The Keeper and the Dell provided (bringing our own drinks, adding our own decor and choosing our own music) but because it is such a beautiful place with so much character and charm we really didn’t have to do much (which was great as we had a 7month old at the time!) and you could easily just add some colourful flowers, hire some of the lovely extras the venue offer and it would look great. All our guests commented on what a lovely setting it was and how helpful all the staff on the day were. If you have seen photos of The Keeper and the Dell and are thinking of getting married there, we can highly recommend it, it won’t disappoint! We are just sad we can’t do it all over again!

We simply can not recommend the Keeper and the Dell highly enough. Just Imagine getting married at a wonderful venue! It is so different to the halls you often see. It offered the most beautiful back drop for our photos, our guests loved it almost as much as we did and visually, no other venue in Norfolk comes close. The Keeper and the dell is just so idyllic. Visually it’s perfect, but it was the attention to detail from Lolly and her amazing staff that really made us feel at ease and left us to simply enjoy our perfect day. A&J

We’ve just been reflecting on our wedding and wanted to say a huge thank you to you for all your hard work and support planning our wedding and making sure things ran smoothly on the day. It really was perfect and we wish we could do it all again. Please pass on our thanks to the venue helpers also. They were lovely and very helpful throughout the day and evening. We will treasure the day always and want to thank you for letting us use your gorgeous grounds to celebrate it - we received lots of compliments about how lovely the venue was!

Members of my family had their wedding at The Keeper and the Dell. Beautiful Venue, fully recommended.
