AddressBest day of our lives! The staff at Kings Chapel were fantastic, very helpful and super friendly! We are so happy we picked the venue, it was gorgeous and a wonderful dining experience too. The food received tons of compliments, and the staff/chefs were so accommodating to tons of different food requirements (allergies/vegan/gluten free etc) thank you all again. Especially Lara, couldn’t have done it without all of your help. Especially with the last minute cake decorating! Big thank you to the dining and waiting staff in the evening, all of you were so kind and helpful, really lovely team!!
We recently got married at Kings Chapel and I can’t rate them highly enough. We were lucky enough to have Lara as our coordinator and she made the whole experience so much easier. No query I had (and I had many!) was ever too big or small. Our conversations by the end felt more like friends discussing a wedding which was so much nicer than it always feeling like a formal client/vendor relationship. On the wedding day itself all the staff were extremely kind and accommodating of us and all of our guests and ensured that everything ran smoothly. I will forever be grateful that we found Kings Chapel and would highly recommend it to anyone planning an event.
Where do I start... firstly, Kiera is amazing at her job. She was always on hand and made our wedding day perfect. The venue itself is stunning. It's unique and magical. I was stunned to see it when it was all dressed for the day. Although the venue is close the Highstreet you would not realise it at all. It was the perfect venue for us and ideal for a party of 80 or less. The venue is perfect and made the day so special. I had guests saying all day how beautiful, intimate and perfect it was for the day. The food was amazing. We opted for the BBQ and it was delicious. All well-cooked. Had no complaints. Usually when you go to the wedding you still feel hungry as the day goes on. Not here. The portions of food were amazing you feel full and the food is excellent. We had a hog roast in the evening and again was so tasty and delicious. Overall I could not put a fault on our day. I have had so many people saying it's the best venue they've been to for a wedding in every possible aspect.
My wedding day was everything I could have asked for and more. I could not recommend this venue enough.
We had our wedding day here in May 2024 after booking in August 2022 and it was everything we hoped it would be!
This was the only venue we looked at before securing it for our date. The setting is amazing and it was the perfect size for our intimate wedding of 40, whilst still giving wow factor.
Everything was reasonably priced, the staff were attentive from the very beginning and our coordinator Lara was so obviously experienced. We were so impressed during our final meeting how she completely saw our vision even though she essentially only had our wedding plan to go off. I’m a huge worrier, but the day went so smoothly, everything was perfect and exactly what I had been dreaming of for the last 2 years.
For a gorgeous relaxed English wedding, book here!
If you are thinking of booking Kings Chapel for your wedding, absolutely do it! From start to finish the support, advice and help was incredible! We have formed such a bond with Kings and its charm and plan to visit annually to revisit our venue for dinner & drinks.
A special mention to Lara our wedding coordinator, when we met, she put us at ease and nothing was ever too much trouble - a huge support on the build-up and on the day. Queries or questions were always answered efficiently and we built a great relationship.
Every supplier we spoke too, couldn't recommend Kings highly enough which is exactly what you want and everyone worked like one big team - it was seamless and gave a great vibe to our day.
The food was incredible, everyone commented on this and especially one vegan guest who said they had never been so catered for before at a wedding - amazing. We had canapés which were delicious and Kings kept a separate board for Bride & Groom which was a lovely touch, the 3-course meal everyone commented on how incredible the food was but also the service was top notch, ticking off every guest as they went round each table and lots of servers which made everything smooth. We also had the wood fire pizza which went down such a treat at the end but of the night - delicious! & the gin bar which was beautifully put together with tonics, garnish etc.
We also had a meal the night before which was sooooo good too, amazing top quality pub classics! We stayed at the Kings Arms the night before and our wedding day and made use of the late night bar too. It was so great to be able to spend breakfast with our wedding party too! These extra options were great to have.
We would recommend Kings to anyone.
Kings will always hold a special place in our hearts and we honestly had the best day! If we could do it again, we would! Thank you!
We got married here in August 2023 and the day was better than we could have ever imagined.
The whole team were incredible from the day we first visited the venue and our wedding coordinator, Kiera, was absolutely fantastic. She always responded to all our emails quickly and was such a reassuring presence on the day.
We had so many comments from our guests about how beautiful the venue and surrounding area is, and everyone loved that everything was all in one place. We were so impressed with how the team incorporated everything we'd discussed in our planning meetings and how smoothly everything went on the day. The room turnarounds were so speedy and appeared effortless and our guests were really looked after.
The banqueting and evening team were also fantastic. The food was exceptional (we're still dreaming about the pork belly that we had as our main course on the day!), and the team catered for all dietary requirements with no fuss at all.
Thank you to everyone involved in our day. It really was amazing, and I wish I could give you all more than 5 stars on this review!
Just wanted to try and express our gratitude for everything Kiera and the King's Chapel team did to help to make our day truly beautiful, running on time, magical and one we'll treasure for the rest of your lives. The correspondence all through the process was fantastic and allowed us the optimism that anything was possible in 4 months of planning.
The King's Chapel offered a space we could personalise in a way that was meaningful to us, alongside such a stunning and historic backdrop. We discovered in the ceremony it has the second highest freestanding dome in the UK after St Paul's Cathedral. A window to the skies.
So many of our loved ones complimented on the beauty and charm of the venue and surrounding views, my dad saying "it was like a fairytale" . We were so glad to be able to share the pretty walled garden too and have accommodation for our loved ones so close by.
We would highly recommend to anyone looking to get married.
There were many memorable moments
We had our wedding at the Kings Chapel in June 2023! It was the most amazing day! The venue is so stunning, the food is delicious and the staff are amazing! Lara our wedding coordinator was just amazing, nothing was too much trouble and responded quickly to all of our queries.
All of our guests commented on how amazing the day was and really enjoyed themselves!
I would highly recommend the kings chapel to anyone! What an amazing place and team!
We had the most amazing day at our wedding at Kings Chapel. The room was as we had envisaged, all our requests were dealt with promptly and efficiently - we couldn't have asked for more! Our wedding coordinator Lara was absolutely fabulous, quick, prompt and extremely helpful - nothing was too much trouble! We had numerous vendors setting up for the day and Lara looked after them all and ensured it was just as we had discussed. Joe, who looked after us in the evening was fantastic, he and his team were super helpful and diligent throughout. The venue itself was loved by all our guests - the food was excellent and all dietary requirements were taken into account. The bedrooms are unique, full of character but missing none of their home comforts and the hotel staff were just as accommodating. For anyone looking to get married here we couldn't recommend it more!
We had our wedding here and had literally the best day. Everything was so professionally done and nothing was too much. The venue is perfect with plenty of space and a beautiful setting. Honestly couldn't recommend it more. Food also super delicious and comfy beds to fall into after a long night of partying. A special thanks to our wedding coordinator Lara who was so helpful and so organised. She is truly someone to trust with the most important and special day. Thank you to the whole team x
