Testimonials

Thank you so much for us helping us with everything. I don’t think we could have asked for better weather or for our vision to come together in a better way. You and all your team were just fantastic.

Megan & Dan

We just want to say a HUGE thank you to you and the team at Sudeley Castle for all of your help and support with our wedding. You have gone above and beyond to help make our day special.

It was perfect and very special to us!

Kate & Will

Thank you too for all your help leading up to our wedding. It was honestly the best day of our lives! Everything went so well, the marquee looked absolutely beautiful! We had the most amazing weather, not too hot and not too cold, so we were able to have most of the marquee sides open which was how I wanted to have it (but you can’t plan these things, so we were just lucky!) and the food was so delicious!

Emily & Jonny

Thank you for helping us throughout the planning stage, multiple change of dates and dealing with never ending questions and out of hours calls and emails etc. You kept the day running smoothly and your lucky umbrellas kept the rain at bay at all the key moments!

Our day was magical thanks to family and friends who attended, staff working on the day and all the suppliers and vendors. Even the peacock made an appearance to the delight of the children (one toddler thought it was a chicken which was amusing). We will forever treasure the day!

Awuoi & Will

I want to say a massive thank you… The day was absolutely perfect. All of our guests were so impressed with the venue, the lighting looked fab, the food was incredible, the day ran like clockwork, it was just perfect!

Lisa

We had an amazing wedding at Sudeley Castle a month ago. It was a truly unforgettable once in a life time experience for me and Alan. As someone who lives outside the UK, it wasn’t easy to pick a wedding venue from abroad but the picture of Sudeley Castle immediately caught my eyes when I was searching. I reached out to Astrid directly to inquire about wedding options at the castle. She was very professional and helpful in giving me ideas on possible options and arrangements. I had no hesitation in choosing Sudeley Castle after speaking to her as I knew the wedding would be perfect at the castle under her good hands! Astrid was very accommodating and allowed us to use the Secret Garden for our symbolic wedding as well as the library for our civil ceremony. She was there throughout to ensure that things went smoothly during the day. We are so glad that we chose Sudeley Castle for our wedding. Not only was it a memorable event for us, it was also a memorable experience for our guests. I have heard from many of my guests that they were all amazed by the lovely setting, the historical touch of the castle as well as the wondering arrangement of the day. Thank you so much, Astrid and the Sudeley Castle staff, for making our once in a life time experience perfect! It would never be the same without your help and professional advice throughout! We already miss the place so much and hope to visit you and the castle in the not very distant future!
