De Vere Wokefield Estate

I just wanted to pop you a message to say a huge thank you to you and your team for all your help on Friday with Param and Rebecca’s wedding. Everything ran so smoothly, and it was such a pleasure to work alongside you all.

We absolutely loved working at your venue – it’s such a beautiful space, and the team’s professionalism really stood out. I would wholeheartedly love to discuss how we can collaborate more closely going forward, and how we might be able to offer the venue to more of our couples, especially our international ones who are always looking for exceptional spaces like yours.

Just wanted to say a big thank you!

The day went smoothly, and everyone enjoyed the venue. Also, thank you for your kind gift with the photo frame and chocolates.

We were so pleased with De Vere Wokefield Estate for our wedding.

The Friday night dinner was superb, everyone thoroughly enjoyed the food, and we got so much of it! It was so lovely to have a private room, and it was the perfect way to kick off the wedding celebrations. The wedding day was amazing; we were so happy with the venue, and our guests were really happy with their rooms, too. We had lots of compliments on the venue, and it was lovely being able to make use of all the rooms, from breakfast in the Lincoln suite to drinks reception and lunch in Palmer and Old Lounge, the civil in Mortimer, and, of course, the wedding in the Terrace suite! We even managed to get some photos in the Whisky Lounge, and we had some of our professional portraits on the grounds, too. Our coordinators were also complimentary of the venue and the venue staff; we all had the help and support whenever we needed it.

Finally, a huge thank you to you and the team for all your help and support both during the run-up to our wedding day and on the day itself! I’m so glad I managed to see you on the day! All in all, we could not have been happier with our choice of wedding venue!

A big thank you to you and the entire team for the incredible service and support throughout our wedding planning and execution.

The whole process with you was exceptionally smooth and deeply satisfying. I truly appreciate the professionalism, care and attention to detail that made our special day so memorable.
Please accept my personal best wishes, and I hope we have the opportunity to visit the Estate again in the future!

Lastly, during the wedding, the Reception Team kindly handed me a gift box from you and the De Vere team, for which I’m extremely grateful.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to you for helping with our special day. We really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you also for the card and photo frame, so special, and we can’t wait to pick a photo for it.

Once again, we appreciate everything you and your team did to make our day special.

Married July 2025

We had the most amazing time. Everything went perfectly, and our guests were all complimenting how beautiful the venue was. I only wish I could replay that day over and over!

We would also like to thank you and the rest of the Wokefield team for making Saturday possible. It was truly a magical day.

I’m waiting on photos. I’m definitely going to frame one in the lovely Wokefield photo frame you gifted us!

Thank you again!

Married July 2025

Thank you so much, the day went smoothly and the venue was wow! I’m really glad I chose Wokefield Estate for my Nikkah ceremony – the Terrace Suite was amazing. Thank you again!

Married August 2025

We just wanted to send you a message to thank you for all the help you’ve given us whilst planning our beautiful wedding!

It went without a hitch, even with the annoying weather.

Please extend my thanks to Vanessa also!

Married June 2025

We want to say a massive thank you to you and the De Vere Wokefield team for all your hard work in making our wedding day so special and flow so seamlessly.

We loved the personalised photo frame you gifted to us – it’s such a beautiful, thoughtful gift and we’re looking forward to framing our special picture. Thank you so much!

Louise, you have been incredible throughout the whole process; you’re a pleasure to work with, always paying attention to detail and accommodating our requests in a timely manner.

Thank you for organising everything from the rooms, furniture, assisting with floor plans and ensuring we had the best experience on our day. The venue was absolutely stunning, and we can’t wait to share our professional photos with you once we receive them.

We loved the kind gestures from the breakfast in our room to the little treats left for us, and decorating our room with rose petals. You truly have gone above and beyond, and we are so grateful.”

Married May 2025

I just wanted to message you and thank you and the team at Wokefield Estate for all of your help throughout our wedding. We really couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you.
I will be sure to write you up a review as soon as I can. Thank you again, Louise. You’ve been absolutely amazing, and I can’t express how thankful I, Jay, and my family are.

Married July 2025

It is a wonderful venue and our guests loved it. We all appreciated your help.

I would also like to add that the staff at the hotel were all amazing and helpful; they made us very comfortable in this wonderful environment. The room is beautiful, and we loved the attached patio area that overlooked lovely gardens.

Overall, a wonderful wedding that’s thanks to you and the staff, as well as the beautiful Mansion House.

Married August 2025

What can we say? We had the most amazing wedding!

Honestly, your and everyone’s hard work was noted, and we had just the most magical time.

You all really went above and beyond with everything and with things we didn’t even know, such as making additional canapés on the fly, which were vegetarian for two guests, making us a new plate with different potatoes, and just generally being so wonderful and incredible. Please pass our very grateful thanks to everyone involved.

And thanks must be given for the most thoughtful gift there has ever been in the score chart, as if I hadn’t cried enough on the day to opening that in our room! Thank you for everything in the lead up and on the day, we couldn’t have wished for anything better, and thank our lucky stars that we were able to have the best day of our lives with the whole team at Wokefield.

Wokefield was one of the first venues we looked at. We instantly fell in love with the place. The building, the décor, the outside areas. It was just beautiful. I booked to view the venue back in August 2024. We met with Louise, and what I loved after seeing some other venues was, she sat us both down and asked what we were looking for. What we wanted and what we were expecting. Any other venue we went to I just didn’t feel like they engaged with us like Louise did. She then showed us round, and I think I already knew this was going to be our venue. Just everything about the place was perfect.

Once confirmed, that was it; we were locked in and ready to go. I cannot fault any of the staff at Wokefield, their professionalism, the friendliness of all the staff, they really do care about you having the perfect day. Nothing was too big or too small for Louise. I would contact her about even the smallest thing, and she always answered with a smile. We did view the venue a couple of times before our big day, and even then, I was so excited that this was going to be our venue.

The big day rolled around so quickly. We stayed the night before so that we could get all the decorations and other bits at the venue. The day arrived, and everyone at Wokefield was just amazing, and I cannot thank them enough for everything they did. All the decorations were put out exactly how I wanted them. Vanessa suggested that we move the cake into the middle of the room, as we had some space, and it was too good to leave in the corner. The whole day just ran so smoothly, and even now, thinking about the day, it just brings a smile to my face. I know we chose the right place to get married, even down to the smallest details like the room being all ready for us when we got back there after it had ended. There being cake for us to have so that we got to try it and the rose petals on the bed.

I will be going back to have afternoon tea just so I can be back at the venue again. Thank you to everyone at Wokefield for making our day so special. We were blown away by how much care was put into our big day. It was literally the perfect day for us.

Married November 2025

Where do I begin? Firstly, I would like to thank you all for a truly amazing day! You and your team were incredible the whole day and evening, and made it perfect! Everything went smoothly, the change around was quick and put together exactly as we imagined it! We cannot thank you and your team enough for the effort you put in!

All members of staff were so lovely, talkative and helpful, and you all went the extra mile for us, which we appreciate so much!

I would also like to thank you, Marriam, for all the support building up to the wedding – I understand I had a few last-minute changes, and without any issues, you changed them for us!

We are truly grateful, and all our guests had an amazing time and loved the venue! Thank you again for everything you have done!

Thank you again for all the support and for making our day truly incredible!

Married May 2025

The day itself was absolutely perfect. We wouldn’t have changed a single thing about it, and I am still buzzing now, writing this three weeks later.

Louise, you were there from the very beginning and, to be honest, were one of the main reasons that we chose Wokefield over other venues that we looked at. You answered every question, query or request in a very professional manner and were very easy to work with.

When we got close to the wedding, you were able to take a lot of the stress and worry away from us, which was really good because it is definitely a stressful time.

Tasha was excellent also during your leave period. She was able to be up to speed and deal with everything just as efficiently and professionally. Thank you, Tasha.

I also wanted to thank the rest of the staff on the day itself. Vanessa was simply excellent on the day and made sure everything ran seamlessly, as did her daughter, Sophie, who took over in the evening.

Apologies, I can’t remember all of the staff’s names, but every single one of them was brilliant, and it is because of them that everybody was able to relax and enjoy themselves. I received so much positive feedback from our guests about the hotel and grounds, quite a few of them live in Reading and had never been there before and couldn’t believe such a beautiful place was so close to them.

Married September 2025

Thank you so much for all your help and support (as well as the entire team), for making the day as stress-free as possible and for making it so special for us.

All the guests loved the venue and the hospitality you and the team provided. And thank you so much for the thoughtful gifts. Can’t believe you remembered about the Lego figurines!

Married August 2025

Thank you for all your help and support leading up to the wedding and on the day itself. Without you, we wouldn’t have had the day we wanted! Thank you so much!
And thank you for the lovely gifts and treats you had left for us! Once again, thank you for all your help!

Married September 2025

I would like to say thank you so much for everything you have done for us. We had such an amazing wedding, and that is also down to you.

It definitely was the best day of our lives! Can you please also send a heartfelt thank you to Tasha for her kindness, and also to Olga, who was an absolute diamond on the day. All the staff at De Vere were lovely and I built a bond with some amazing people including yourself.

Thank you so much. It’s been amazing working with you, and you were a real comfort on the day. We will definitely let you know when we are next down, and we can hopefully catch up.

Married September 2025

A massive thank you to you, Vanessa and the rest of the Wokefield team for such a wonderful wedding celebration!

We had the best day, and know this is down to the whole team. The day ran seamlessly, and even when we got a bit behind on timings, Vanessa and Simon were able to coordinate new timings with no fuss.

Additionally, thank you for the wedding card and gift! These were so thoughtful and a lovely surprise!
